Dread Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 I might check out Limetown. Lore is really good. For those who were fans of Mondo Movie, the guys are back with a new podcast called Streampunk discussing more accessible films (in the sense that they're easy to find on streaming services) in the weird and wild cinematic world, with a keener eye towards a film club style approach. It's short too, which is good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 Several years ago, I spent about thirty seconds seriously considering pitching Mike a G.I. Joe podcast, but realized almost immediately it would be almost impossible to do a long-form show about a series that (the occasional utterly bugfuck nuts episode aside) largely had the same plot day in and day out: COBRA builds/steals a weapon, uses said weapon to unleash craziness, there's a fight, evil is vanquished.However, it turns out it can be done. Knowing is Half the Podcast is three friends going through the series episode by episode, breaking each one up with a look at a particular character or an interview with someone associated with the series. It's a very, very funny show, with one host unable to contain his fanboy enthusiasm, another who looks at everything like it's the dumbest thing he's ever seen, and a third who's somewhere in the middle but game for anything.

Dread Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 The Rachel Deering episode of Brian Keene's The Horror Show podcast has some more damning stuff about Marvel. Major runaround from editorial, especially CB Cebulski, who is supposed to manage their talent, not knowing that Keene, a NYT Bestselling Author had ever even written for them.

You Know Who Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Space Dock Jury. A must-listen for anyone even vaguely interested in science fiction. Previously covered ships include the Borg cube, Slave 1, and the Nostromo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Know Who Posted November 8, 2016 Report Share Posted November 8, 2016 Presidents Are People Too! Distributed for free via Audible though a few are also available through iTunes. Each episode, the hosts (a comedian and historian) dissect a random U.S. president's history and personality and how it impacted their administration and legacy. Highlights so far include the reading of Nixon's post-Watergate memoirs and a discussion of Coolidge's depression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Know Who Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 The bOrgcast- Been a casual listener since Dave first mentioned the program in The Phantom review. Mostly going back over the episodes covering Season 7 of TNG and Season 2 of DS9 nowadays while trying to avoid spoilers about later seasons of the latter. Highly recommend episode 8.M ("His tears look like wee") and M6 ("Christmas on Qo'noS"), which review Generations and The Undiscovered Country, respectively.

Professor Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Any suggestions for podcasts that are about 30 minutes or under? I like to listen to things in full. Everything I listen to is an hour+ and sometimes I have 30 minutes and nothing to fill that gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Know Who Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Same with Great Lives and some episodes of History Extra, both excellent (if Anglocentric and somewhat uneven) BBC history programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted November 15, 2018 Report Share Posted November 15, 2018 I guess this is as good a place to ask as any: Anyone know how to fix a podcast that will not download in iTunes? I have tried all the normal things (unsubscribe, resubscribe, delete and try again) to no avail. It was only happening to a new podcast I was going to try, but now it is happening to a podcast I've listen to for a while with no issue.

You Know Who Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 I recently got hooked on You’re Dead To Me and Evil Genius, both history podcasts from the BBC hosted by comedians (Greg Jenner and Russell Kane, respectively). Evil Genius is generally the funnier of the two but You’re Dead To Me is more informative and the better program if you’re actually interested in history (paging a certain Mr. I. Wilson).

Davedevil Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 Mortal Podkast: I don't know if anyone would have thought that telling a Mortal Kombat character's story from beginning to end, episode by episode, would make for a good podcast but it is surprisingly engaging. The host does a great job finding the emotional hook for each character; I play these games but I have a much better appreciation for them now. I have no idea what he'll do for the characters with significantly less material, but I'm sure it'll be fun to listen to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 I am nine days into no longer having a job where I can listen to podcasts all day. I guess I didn't really comprehend just how many podcasts I listened to in a week. It is impossible to keep up while I'm at home. Impossible. Since the beginning of April, my backlog has increased by over 100 episodes. Seemingly out of nowhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow I am months behind on podcasts and YouTube series, despite working from home for three-plus months and, now, only being back in the office twice a week. Not sure how this worked out.

dc20willsave Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 I've been lucky enough that my workplace has been largely closed to the public for the last few months. I was mostly just listening to music for the first couple of months but been doing more podcast listening in the last couple. "Jay and Miles XPlain the X-Men" has been my go to for Mondays even before the Pandemic started. They just wrapped up their coverage of the Age of Apocalypse so now it's covering the slow, exhausting road to Onslaught. "Musicalsplaining" is a podcast where Video Essayist Lindsay Ellis and her friend Kaveh Taherian talk about musicals. She likes them, he never cared for them. Its funny. Since Survivor isn't going to be back in 2020, I've been listening to a lot of retrospectives on the series and Social Strategy games in general.

S-T Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 The various Earth-2 podcasts, obviously. One podcast I've started in the last year is "We Hate Movies." Very funny, but not as good as the Tranquil Tirades. Tyrus and Timpf is also quite funny as they look at silly news stories of the week. Also, The Ringer NBA podcast and ESPN's NBA podcast. I listen to a bunch of conservative podcasts and news podcasts, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
