I thought listening to podcasts was bad during running because of the pacing.

Brooooo I got you.
Podcast junkie here

Alright, so, here are my top subscriptions:

Astonishing legends
Lore
Criminal
Freakanomics
Mark Bell Powercast
This American Life
Mystery Show
The Moth
Serial
Stuff You Should Know
Stuff They Don't Want You To Know

>>35333420

How Stuff Works - stuff you should know.
Big backlog to choose from.

That's kinda like asking 'What's a good TV show?', like, what sort of things are you in to man, what are your tastes to start with?

>>35333420
Freakonomics

>>35333420
Myths and legends podcast.

I used to really like him, and then I grew out of it. I still somewhat like his new stuff, but not him. With H8 coming out, I thought about giving it another try.

>>35333465
Thanks for the suggestions, though most of them seem a bit too esoteric for me.

>>35333456
wouldn't know

re read m8

I've been listening to eLIFE and Radiolab. They touch some very interesting topics.

I can vouch for Lore, it's a great listen.

>>35333420
Tim Ferriss Show. Disregard his fitness advice though.

>>35333601
I'll check those out.

>>35333465
freakanomics is bro-tier, that book got me to question a lot of things in terms of "objective truth" and people exploiting bad data back when i was in middle school. giggled like a bitch when I realized they had a podcast

>>35333420
I like WTF and bill burr
each podcast is diverse enough that theres usually one in the library im in the mood for
if youre into sports/comedy and listeneng to 50 year old men complain then thats right up your alley
oh and /k/ news bulletin for any you faggots itt

Chewin it with Kevin and Steve
The Joe Rogan Experience
Hardcore History
Serial

God Tier:
Intelligence Squared: US Debates. You'll learn a bunch of shit from this, and everyone is at least reasonably convincing and usually very well-qualified.

High Tier:
Radiolab longer episodes
Planet Money when they're not doing filler (you'll be able to tell - sometimes they're talking about the fed, sometimes about a guy who buys onions)
Invisibilia
99% invisible

Mid Tier:
Hidden Brain (The host sounds like a retard but he gets good people on)
The Long Now seminars
Three Moves Ahead / The Game Design Round Table
Freakonomics, depending on the person
APM Marketplace (Daily)

Low Tier:
The Art of Manliness. Occasionally worth a listen, but the guy seems like such a corporate shill and his guests are shit half the time.

I also like The New Yorker Political Scene, Guitar Music Theory Lessons, Philosophy Bites, and Food Science 101. Haven't been able to find a good cooking podcast that delves into science though.

I enjoy Radiolab so I'll check those out.

I've got ~20 subscriptions (I work in IT so I have plenty of time to myself), but here's my current favorite:

>Wired's Gadget Lab
Very relaxed show of entertaining people having conversations about tech shit, mostly new and pre-release stuff but also moon-shot ideas and old tech they miss. After listening for a year, one of the hosts left and it died... Then my buddy from high school filled his position and they brought it back. Laughed my ass off the first time I heard his voice

Art of charm is pretty good. It covers a huge array of topics.

We're Alive, A story of survival is the best radio drama I've ever heard.

>>35333420
Car talk on NPR is great. Idk if they have a cast

My favorites are walking up with Sam Harris, the Ben Greenfield podcast, reply all, we the people

>>35334877
Sam Harris' Waking Up is a great podcast. His guests are fantastic and there's great discussion without a whole lot of circle-jerking.
