I’m getting close to the bottom of my backlog on a few podcasts, so I’m looking to get something new in there.

Personally, it’s been, in no particular order:

  • If Books Could Kill
  • Darknet Diaries
  • Hard Fork
  • 99% Invisible
  • The War on Cars
  • The Urbanist Agenda
  • The Climate Denier’s Playbook
  • Well There’s Your Problem

I’m mildly considering getting into Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here, but I’m a little bit skeptical on account of how damn much there is to be listened to in their feed.

    I love Behind The Bastards and It Could Happen Here. They do have significant episode counts. BtB does a great and looooooong series on Henry Kissinger that I think is a prime example of what you are going to get. If you listen to that one and don’t enjoy, I would move on from them.

    Castle Super Beast is what I put on for grinding in video games. Woolie Madden & Patrick Boivin from SBFP made their own podcast after dissolving the channel, and it’s now been going on for about as long as their old podcast. It’s about a bunch of nerd bullshit like video games, but with a slight veneer of a focus on industry news.

        funny enough, the tbfp subreddit is what actually got me onto lemmy. There was a tiny sbfp community that popped up around the blackout protest, but it faded pretty quick.

        I was on the Pathfinder.social instance for a little bit until that died off too, and then hopped over to a tiny art instance called crystals.rest, and now onto the warframe instance. This one’s surprisingly resilient for how niche it is!

      Make sure to follow it up with Robin Pearson’s History of Byzantium. He’s still centuries away from done, but I like it even better than Mike Duncan’s after it gets going.

        That’s how I was made aware of “The History of Rome”. I listened to the last chapters of “Revolutions” and decided to start from the beginning before listening to the rest.

        My current “roadmap” of sorts is to finish “The History of Rome”, then "The History of Byzantium* (not made by Duncan) and listen to the rest of “Revolutions” afterwards

    The only podcasts I listen to are the unexpectables ones. I don’t even really like DND but MontyGlu is an amazing voice actor and role player… Like you can tell she genuinely cares for her NPCs and can tell the differences in characters from the nuisance of her characters and the candor I’m which they speak. I haven’t had much luck finding that else where. And that’s ignoring the fantastic world she has built for her players.

    WARK.

    I was never a podcast person until I listened to Otherworld. It gives a platform to people to tell their paranormal stories without sensationalism or judgement. They cover a wide range of topics from hauntings to cryptids to aliens. Really cool stuff even if you’re a skeptic

    I’ll always recommend Blowback. Specially season 3. Death to America.
