Listen to quite a few pods regularly, for whatever that pod didn’t hook me; maybe it was the hosts, not saying they’re bad just not my sense of humor.
That being said several of my friends love it.

If you like serial or shit town, check out In The Dark. Season 2 is especially good. It’ll make you realize just how fucked up our justice system is.

Voices of the First World War.
Quote:
Dan Snow brings together the sound archive collections of the Imperial War Museums and the BBC to tell the story of World War I through the voices of those who were there.
Duncan Trussell #314 Damien Echols....very good episode, worth a relisten
http://thefirnline.com/
mostly climbing interviews
Kristi Leskinen and Jen Hudak just started one called Balanced Pursuits. I only caught the Chris Davenport interview, but I liked it...
I also came across "The Avalanche Hour" Podcast- anyone listening to it?
There’s a podcast called Thunder Bay, it’s sort of a true crime show, but it goes into the seedy underbelly and recent history of the town.

Good take on media / news coverage: WNYC's "On the Media" https://www.wnycstudios.org/shows/otm . Comes out weekly on Friday night or Saturday a.m. so good weekend driving listen. Strong appeal for NPR nerds whatever news you follow it'll give a good take on who's covering it, why, and how with bigger cultural or historical context than the breathless headless that make up the daily news grind.
You might have heard of this Donald Trump fellow, and his legal and business complications.
If so, then for legal check out Stay Tuned with Preet -- https://www.npr.org/podcasts/5517917...ned-with-preet -- weekly pod from the former US Attorney for the SDNY and former counsel to Senate Justice committee, Preet Bharara (who DJT fired for failure to kiss the ring). First 15 minutes or so of each show is Preet answering questions about current legal developments. A great contrast to the shouting matches on cable and instant analysis by inexperienced journos - he knows the process and the substantive law, he knows the players, and he readily acknowledges what he doesn't know. After that, conversations with authors, candidates, other public figures.
And for business (legal or otherwise) - Trump Inc., also WNYC : https://www.wnycstudios.org/shows/trumpinc . Investigative work from WNYC, Pro Publica, and crowd-sourced tips. Not weekly, just whenever they've broken a story or developments warrant. Sometimes minor (e.g., illegal private profit on presidential-seal golf-tees), sometimes huge (e.g., Russian money-laundering at Trump casinos in the 90s; great synthesis of the Fred Trump to DJT generation tax fraud if you couldn't get through all 10,000 print pages).
Alex Jones on Joe Rogan Experience today ep. #1255. 4 hours of fucking craziness!
#1254 Dr. Phil and #1253 Ioan Grillo are both really good also.
Stay Tuned with Preet Bharara, the man that Trump fired before Comey or Mueller, because he wouldn't kiss his ring. Just listened to a recent one where he talks to Kenneth Feinberg, the man who has made a career out of handing out both public and private compensation to victims, the most famous were the 9/11 funds. Good stuff.
If you're a Michael Lewis fan, he has a new podcast all about referees and the threat to their existence in our society. It's called Against the Rules. Good stuff.
Bill and Chelsea Clinton are supposed to be launching a new pod cast.
Thats going to be a new low. Listening to either do talking ads for Simply Safe or web site hosting companies. Of course, they can go to this new pay model that some are trying, but, who the fuck would pay for that? Oh, wait, the same that paid for seats on their latest tour, I guess.
Last Podcast on the Left - Comedy true crime. Gets pretty raunchy, but it's funny and pretty informative. Last Podcast network has several podcasts that are worth a listen (Wizard and the Bruiser, Abe Lincoln's Tophat, and Movie Sign With the Mads).
Astonishing Legends. I have to pick and choose, as they can get pretty out there and I'm not into the ghost and alien episodes...and they're sometimes longer than they need to be due to rambling.
I'll second or whatever Revisionist History by Malcolm Gladwell. Same with Hardcore History.

The Portal with Eric Weinstein
Just getting started but shaping up to be pretty interesting.
My commute is now 45 min.
I’ve discovered that being entertained is way more appreciated than learning something.
In order of most likely to pick:
1. Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend
2. My Dad Wrote A Porno
3. Stuff You Should Know
4. Stay Tuned With Preet

If I had to choose a favorite it’d be Stuff You Should Know
Listen to Fore Play every Tuesday and Thursday.
Barstool golf podcast.
Alien Theorists Theorizing.
Conspiracy and alien stuff but with heaps of levity and very little Kool-Aid drinking. I’m not usually into this type of stuff but these guys are hilarious.

The dirtbag diaries did an interview with Steve Casmiro that I enjoyed.

Anybody grew up in the 70/80/90’s skateboard culture - check out Nine Club. Pretty good in depth sit downs with OG pro skaters (brigade guys/etc); they got a lot of new stuff too, but I skip all that. The guests make it good.
Different vibe - jeselnik/Rosenthal vanity project; good banter on random stuff. If jeselnik fan, will enjoy.

Dr Death. So captivating.

New season of Revisionist History is fascinating. The bonus chapter from his book has me seriously considering a purchase.
3rd on Stuff You Should Know. The kids love it. I thought my son fell asleep during the punk episode, so I paused it. He spoke up with "hey, I'm listening to that".
The Ron Burgundy Podcast is entertaining. Starts pretty slow, but gets better.
If you watch Good Mythical Morning, their podcast Ear Biscuits is pretty good.
No Dogs in Space is a solid music history podcast. So far, more of a funny story format than a deep dive into genre and influences. I think Carolina Hidalgo shines in this format. She's a great young voice on Movie Sign with the Mads, but mostly sounds awkward and uncomfortably out of place.
I'll have to start listening to this. You listening to broken record? It's put on by Malcolm Gladwell and Rick Rubin. Lately they have been using a random host to fill in, which is annoying because all I care about is listening to Rick talking shop to musicians. But all the episodes are good no matter the host except for a few. I even like ones from artists I would never listen to otherwise. Amazing insights to the creative process.

Broken Record is awesome, but I'm not caught up. Bummer about the random host.
I started The Dream the other day, looking forward to a long road trip to get into it.
Awesome first episode about ponzis / multi level marketing, etc
love this one, gone through the catalogue and the episodes with some of the older legends (Grosso, Hosoi, Dave Duncan, Vallely) are all really rewarding if you're into old guy skateboarding.
I'm not a huge fan of him, but his latest episode with Riley Reid was a really good listen. She's great. He's a dork.
He's a really intelligent guy, but it's funny how that plays with the different guests.
With someone like Gary Kasparov or Vitalik Buterin it works well and you have to stay on top of the conversation. With Riley Reid he comes across as unable to figure out how to talk to normal people.
And I have no understanding of the recent guitar/singing shit.
The guests are pretty hit or miss though. Its the only podcast where I either listen to the whole thing, some parts more than once, or don't last more than 10 minutes.
Small Town Murder is really good / funny
