Top 5 Podcasts That You Listen To.

[Master Live 013]

Looking maybe to add some interesting podcasts to my rotation. Lets see if we coincide on a couple:

1. The Bill Simmons Podcast: have been listening since he was at ESPN. Sometimes he has infuriating takes but he is funny and doesn't take himself too seriously. Basically I only listen to it when he has "his guys": Russillo, Cousin Sal, Chris Ryan, Joe House etc., have never been a fan of interviews, in podcast or otherwise.
2. FiveThirtyEight Politics: politics podcast with a heavy dose of statistics/"analytics".
3. The Rewatchables: From Bill Simmons' The Ringer "network", a podcast in which they review a "rewatchable" film per episode (think Heat, Face Off, Con Air, Titanic, that sort of thing). Lots of fun and they don't take it too seriously.
4. The Big Picture: another Ringer podcast, in this one they talk more broadly about the movie industry, box office, awards, up coming films and they also review some films. They also interview directors, actors, producers ect. if that's your thing.
5. The Lowe Post: ESPN's Zach Lowe podcast about basketball (of course). Always smart, intelligent takes with some self-deprecating humor.

What say you guys?

I'm not much on podcasts but I watch Rogan on YouTube all the time and visit FiveThirtyEight's site regularly.

I will give the Sopranos podcast a shot this April.

I just finished getting caught up with Conan O'Brien's podcast, Conan Needs a Friend. It is hilarious, but also very insightful especially if the guest is a fellow comedian or writer as they tend to dive into the craft.

Since then I've been catching up on Questlove Supreme from Questlove and friends. It had been an iHeart Radio exclusive until December and all new episodes since then are widely available. Its not as structured or streamlined as Conan's, but its been very enjoyable and depending on the guest very insightful. The pod with Kurtis Blow is amazing. I'm currently on the Seth Rogen one and still have 7-8 to catch up on.

For any Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, or Star Wars fans I recommend Binge Mode. I've gone through all the Harry Potter pods and they are exceptionally well done - probably the best full scale analysis of the Harry Potter universe than any other single source. For HP they go through the books first with 2-4 chapters per pod. After the book is done they do a pod on the movie. Repeat. This features Mallory Rubin and Jason Concepcion of the Ringer.

I have a lot of music ones bookmarked for once I get caught up on Questlove: Striped: The Story of the White Stripes, Song Exploder, Music Student 101, and Hack Music Theory.

#dork
They discuss "dorky" topics like the MCU, comics, DCEU, tv shows and each October they cover a lot of scary movies to watch

Mac & gu
Similar to #dork above but they have trivia episodes and broaden their topics a bit more

Podcast unlocked
IGN podcast focused on Xbox. Don't listen nearly as much as I used to but still good episodes here and there

Podcast beyond
IGN podcast focused on PlayStation. Same deal as unlocked on listening frequency

Baschamania
Interviews with amateur wrestlers both collegiate and international. I follow wrestling and find them to be very interesting interviews.

During football season the Fantasy Footballers almost every day training camp through week 16 (if I'm lucky). Outside of that Armchair Expert if I recognize the guest, The Steve Austin Show, The New Day: Feel the Power, Conspiracy Theories by Parcast.

I listen to Effectively Wild here and there but Lindbergh's rhetorical style can be exasperating, sometimes instead of stating his point and then give his reasoning behind it he goes in a seemingly never ending stream of consciousness. Like his writing, his podcasting needs some work.

I don't listen to many podcasts, but I highly recommend The History of Rome. It concluded several years ago, but it was fascinating. I learned more about Rome than I ever though I wanted to know, and it was done in an entertaining way.

Top 5 Podcasts That You Listen To.

+1 for Effectively Wild
Giant Bombcast/Beastcast - 2 weekly gaming news podcasts, I’ve been reading Alex’s wrestling game reviews since I had a GameCube.
/Filmcast - movie news and reviews
Book Riot - Book news
The Watch - TV news

Pack put me on All the Smoke and that made me realize I wanted a different...perspective in some of my pods, so I subbed to The Right Time with Bomani Jones (first episode I listened to was with Ta-Nehisi Coates) and Bill Rhoden on Sports (episode with the director of Vick was good).

Re: Top 5 Podcasts That You Listen To.

Yeah I like All the Smoke and The Knuckleheads too. NBA players open up more to other players so you get more genuine interviews.

I don't normally do podcast due to just not having the time. But I checked out Binge Mode HP. I'm only 1 episode in but damn was it good. Great recommendation [emoji106].

The pods get a little lengthy as the books expand, but I found myself making time to listen.
