Podcasts?

[camreesmom]

DD19 just introduced me to podcasts and it makes the drive home seem to go by faster. Right now I've been listening to a couple of True Crime podcasts (Crime Junkie, Gladiator, Broken Harts) and several Disney ones. Can you share your favorite podcast so I can have some more to listen to? TIA!

I like listening to Stuff You Should Know and the various Jim Hill Media ones about Disney, Star Wars, Marvel, animation in general, and Universal.

Cold, BUCKit, Dr Death, Homecoming, Armchair Expert, Slow Burn, Dirty John, Magic Lessons, Ted Talks Daily, plus some related to TV shows I follow. Serial and My Favorite Murder are pretty popular. I don't listen to every single episode for all of these but they are in rotation depending on my mood.

I listened to Missing Richard Simmons recently which was very well done and interesting to boot. I’ve been listening to WDW Radio for many years. Lou is awesome!

Court Junkie, Crime Junkie, Criminal, Last Podcast on the Left, My Favorite Murder, S-Town, Small Town Murder. I don't like the host at all, but the first several episodes of Sword and Scale are pretty good. The later episodes start going into shock value stuff and the host is a word that I can't use here, but it's worth a listen if you enjoy true crime to see if it's your thing.

I've started listening to Dr. Death on the recommendation of co-workers. Apparently he was a former student. I appreciate the other recommendations as I'm apparently on a crime kick.

Whatever your hobbies or profession is there are likely podcasts that are informative and/or entertaining. I don't even have music on my phone, if I listen to anything it is a podcast.

I listen to soccer podcasts (Guardian Football Weekly and The Totally Football Show), health and endurance related podcasts (Ben Greenfield Fitness, Endurance Planet, Get Fit Guy, trail Runner Nation, Primal Blueprint), random lifestyle and interview podcasts (The Forward, Get Over Yourself, Outside Magazine, Stuff You Missed In History Class), and technology (SecurityNow, TWiT, TechStuff).

The only podcast I listen to is Armchair Expert.

 

[Klayfish]

Wow, you folks are way more advanced than I am. I only started listening to a podcast a year or so ago. I only listen to one, and it's by my friends. I've tried a few others and just didn't care for them. I listen mostly to SiriusXM.

FYI, the DIS has a bunch of podcasts. I used to listen to the original show but stopped about 6 years ago.

 

[LilyWDW]

Oh lord... I listen to so much! I mostly listen to true crime, horror, geek, and medical stuff.

My favorite Podcast network is Parcast. Unsolved Murders, Mythology, Haunted Places, and Serial Killers are just a small selection of their options.

Also love Creepy, Welcome to Nightvale, Small Town Horror, The Alexandria Archive, Dr. Death, The Cleaning of John Doe, The Podcast Will Kill You, and Medical Stuff. I listen to so many more though. Just depends on what I feel like that day!

Y’all are the best! My commute home used to be less than 15 minutes but due to construction now takes over an hour. Lots of interesting suggestions here!

 

[Floridaman999]

I'd like to mention the S-Town podcast once again. If any of you haven't listened to it, you really should. It's of an adult rated podcast due to subject matter and should not include the kids in listening. It's an amazing roller coaster of a story that brings forward a roller coaster of emotions. Check it out. You won't be disappointed.
