Podcasts Recommendations

If you like Seinfeld a little too much, like me, this is a great show:

Seincast - A retrospective on all 180 episodes of Seinfeld being hosted by two guys who can barely run their own lives. To the idiotmobile!

One episode runs +-90 minutes covering every scene, lots of trivia and behind the scene stuff.

that sounds good

of a similar vein is the west wing weekly, one of the hosts was in the show and is a close friend of sorkin so you get some great stories, they regularly have other actors from the show on too
 
S-Town is the new Serial thing, isn't it? Wife loves it, I haven't started yet.

I like a lot of the Radiolab episodes, some are kind of boring, but quite a few are excellent. WTF with Marc Maron have some good ones too (the only downside being Maron himself, who is just downright annoying, but he interviews some interesting people).

Since there's a few Scandinavians on here, I can wholeheartedly recommend Krisemøte and Sånn er du. The last one is excellent. Personality testing (Big 5) of various celebrities (usually people who have done something to earn their celebrity status).
 
Cognitive Dissonance
The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe
The Infinite Monkey Cage
Opening Arguments
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History and Waking Up with Sam Harris are both very good, but both suffer from dragging on a bit.

Have you checked out Scathing Atheist if you like Cognitive Dissonance? Well worth a listen imo.

------------------------------------------------------

I have to mention The Sceptics' Guide to the Universe. I've listen to a ton of their episodes and I really think listening to them once a week with an open mind is well worth it. Great for science and solid entertainment too.

I have - they were on the Vulgarity for Charity episodes and I enjoyed what I heard. Unfortunately, my travel time is now full with Cognitive Dissonance, Opening Arguments, The Skeptics Guide and the odd Infinite Monkey Cage.

I had to drop a couple of podcasts as I was getting behind and that was one. I'm seriously thinking of not bothering with TIMC either - their choice of (non-science) guests is consistently terrible and they rarely call them out on their nonsense beliefs.

It really is very good. It's often my jumping off point for science news now.
 
Has anyone been listening to S-Town? I'm a couple of episodes in and really impressed so far.

I cannot recommend enough S-Town

S-Town is the new Serial thing, isn't it? Wife loves it, I haven't started yet.

I like a lot of the Radiolab episodes, some are kind of boring, but quite a few are excellent. WTF with Marc Maron have some good ones too (the only downside being Maron himself, who is just downright annoying, but he interviews some interesting people).

Finished brick Town today. Really enjoyed it.
 
It was inevitable but so far Football weekly with Rushden is a big step down on AC Jimbo.

* A new Dan Carlin has been released this week.
 
Untold - The Daniel Morgan Murder - First season was very good, second season so far has been a bit slow and now it's a bit popular it has sponsors involved (always annoying) and an additional host for some reason, but still interesting content.

Black Hands - 10 part series about a famous Kiwi family murder.

Beyond Reasonable Doubt - BBC crime series about a fairly well known case (a docu-film called The Staircase was released about the case) of a husband accused of murdering his wife.

ESPN 30 for 30 Podcasts - If you've seen the TV docs you know the production value will be very high.
 
Jon Ronson's the Butterfly Effect is excellent and free on Audible

I finished listening to this today. It's really worth three hours of your time. It's about the butterfly effect of Pornhub and is really interesting. It's by Jon Ronson's, so you probably knew that already.
 
Athletico mince with Bob mortimer took about a dozen to like but now love it. If you didn't like smell of reeves and mortimer swerve.

This weeks gang of the epl involves Danny Rose... (most weeks are spurs related)

There's a fair bit of flab in it but I like it.

I used to be on nodding terms with Bob, I was quite pleased with that because I was a huge fan when I was a kid.

Some of the Marc Maron ones are really good, I really like the one he did with Patrice O'Neil. His show, 'Maron', is quite good too (think it's netlfix).

It grew on me, took a long while but now I laugh out loud a couple of times and that's an exception.

You from Middlesbrough?

It took a while to grow on me too.

No, I lived near him in Kent until recently. I used to see him most weekends.
