What podcasts have you been listening to the most during the year?

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.

  • Last Podcast on the Left
  • Behind the Bastards
  • Harmontown
  • Hardcore History
  • Wizard and the Bruiser
  • That Happens
  • The Bugle
  • State of the World, NPR

I think I like your list better.

Search Engine had been my favorite podcast in the last year or so.

Curious if anyone who has search engine has paid for incognito mode?

I’m sure people have but my guess is they’re more likely to be bluesky people instead of lemmy people.

Recently I’ve started listening to Off Menu

I wanted to finish Wheel of Time, but couldn’t slog my way through all the books again, so I listened to the Dragon Re-Read. A ton of fun conversation and saved me so much time and reading.

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

My pocket cast stats: You’ve listened for 115 days 14 hours

Honorable mentions not yet seem in this thread (English only):

  • The Guardian: The Audio long read - full articles read by real people (30-45 min.)
  • Economist: Drum Tower - China correspondence about culture and politics
  • Aquired - 3h+ episodes about tech IPO and the history of companies. Sounds boring but it gives a look behind the curtain of the tech industry from the 30s to today (fun example episode: PowerPoint)
  • WNYC: On the media - Meta talk about media topics and enshittification
  • Law and Chaos - Previously on Opening Arguments, now in their own podcast: US justice topics, GOP bashing and of course: Trump

  • Tosh Show
  • Talking Counter
  • HLTV Confirmed

Sometimes listen to

  • The Daily
  • StarTalk
  • Behind the Bastards
MegaUltraChicken ,

I’ve been loving Tosh Show. His guests are way more interesting than listening to comedians talk to comedians all the time. Don’t have any kids, so I find the bedtime stories at the end hilarious as well.

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.

GarbageShoot ,

Always neat to see another fan of CSB/Woolie around. I haven’t seen your instance name before, at least that I can remember.

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!

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 in 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.

The Cool Zone people do put out a ton of content, I don’t know how they do it. I commute and hour each way to work, and between Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here, that gets me through almost the whole week.

I know they all have other shows now too. I have listened to Margaret Killjoy’s Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff a few times now as well. It’s like BtB, but more like the BtB Christmas Special where it focuses on people that have tried to make positive changes instead of the villains. It’s nice to have the same quality content but with a somewhat positive spin.

If you want to get into it without it taking up all your time, see if Robert’s or Margaret’s topic is something that really looks good, or if it doesn’t you can check out ICHH, which is split up into segments anyway and you can enjoy that in smaller portions.

Besides those, I enjoy Threedom (comedy show with Scott Aukerman of Comedy Bang Bang, Paul F Tompkins who was Mr Peanutbutter on Bojack Horseman, and Lauren Lapkus of Jurassic World, OitnB, and a ton of other things), How I Built This with Guy Raz, and Planet Money from NPR.

I’m fully in the Nick Weiger podcast universe so I listen to:

  • Doughboys
  • Doughboys Double
  • Get Played
  • Get Played Season Pass

Which are all comedy podcasts with similar people appearing. They’re about chain restaurants, random side bullshit, Video Games, and Anime respectively. Then I also listen to:

  • Quick Question with Soren and Daniel
  • The Film Reroll

Which is a podcast by 2 former cracked writers which is the only reason people listen to them and a podcast about playing through movies as role playing games

Zombiepirate ,
@Zombiepirate@lemmy.world avatar

Film Reroll is a top-tier AP podcast.

If you like them, check out Dungeons and Daddies; it has a similar energy. I wish they’d guest on each other’s shows!

makeshiftreaper ,

The only reason I listen to Film Reroll is because it’s about movies. I don’t even listen to all of them, just movies I know will be fun/I’ve seen. Fifth Element, Mighty Ducks, Aliens, Last Action Hero, and Memento (which was incredibly cool how they did it) are the ones I’ve listened to since 2020.

Something about actual play just irritates me, especially for D&D. I’d just rather play myself

Zombiepirate ,
@Zombiepirate@lemmy.world avatar

Oh sure, I just think there’s some overlap because the cast on Dungeons & Daddies are all filmmakers themselves so they go for more of a cinematic presentation than any other D&D podcast I’ve heard.

Personally I wouldn’t play D&D again because it’s not my kind of system, but they don’t waste your time like other AP podcasts I’ve tried.

But hey if it’s not your thing, no big deal; it’s kind of a nice thing to know about yourself.
