Tell Em Steve Dave
Bill Burr's Monday Morning Podcast

also for any football junkies, my buddy does an excellent player breakdown podcast called FilMetrx. Takes a handful of players per pod and breaks down their game. Excellent stuff.

Many of my favourites have already been mentioned, but I wanted to come in here to share this YouTube video if anyone is thinking about checking out Hello Internet. The video offers a glimpse into what makes the podcast so unique and fun:

 

I enjoy podcasts and have a couple I'd love to listen to more consistently, as well as check out the recommendations from this thread. But it's seriously so hard to find time to listen to them. I don't have a long commute, I don't work out solo very often, etc. Guess I need to prioritize more.

 

I'm relatively new to the podcasting world, and just started my own about pop culture. Would any podcasters have any advice about which hosting service to use, how to set up an RSS feed, etc?

 

just started listening to Astonishing Legends. RIYL: urban legends, conspiracy theories, secret societies, and weird history.

 

Radiolab and the Savage Lovecast.

 

In terms of rock music, That's Not Metal podcast is very good indeed. The membership specials are especially brilliant.

 

Stuff You Should Know was my introduction to podcasts.

Such a pleasant listen always.

 

SoundCloud is simple to use but if you want to have nice looking show notes, Libsyn is worth looking at. The RSS feed is included with both options and then you can submit to iTunes. Do you have a dedicated website for your podcast? Also possible to use that as your RSS feed.

 

Bizzare States
Dude Soup
GameOverGreggyShow
Internet Box
Here Be Monsters
Productive Outs
Star Wars Minute
Still Untitled: The Adam Savage Podcast
Ten Minute Podcast
Welcome To Night Vale

A few of my favorites that haven't seen mentioned yet.

 

I used the free Soundcloud option, and the RSS submission wasn't accepted by iTunes. Then we tried Libsyn, and weren't able to upload our backlog without getting a $50 option or higher. I'm thinking about paying for the $15/mo Soundcloud option, but am worried about doing so and STILL not getting everything synced to iTunes correctly.

We don't have a dedicated website for our show yet, but possibly one day!

 

I may need to check this out.

 

For one of my soundcloud feeds, I run it through feedburner and then used that to submit to iTunes. My shows were from start though without a backlog so I'm not super sure on how that would work.

 

Pretty much just listen to pro wrestling podcasts.

Art of Wrestling with Colt Cabana (which is pretty much WTF with Marc Maron but with wrestlers)

Cheap Heat with David Shoemaker and Peter Rosenberg (which was previously on Grantland's podcast network, now ESPN's)

The Steve Austin Show (which isn't always about wrestling, but when it is it's great. Austin's opinions and critiques are always on point )

Talk Is Jericho (same as Austin's but with more entertaining irreverent conversations with wrestlers but less critical and more shill-ey)

Sam Roberts Wrestling podcast

Straight Shoot with Aubrey Sitterson

Wrestling Observer Live

Wish I had Howl so I get more into Pro Wrestling Fringe with Colt Cabana (which is pretty much Radiolab but with backstage wrestling stories).

 

Song Exploder "is a podcast where musicians take apart their songs, and piece by piece, tell the story of how they were made."

The Cracked Podcast is always really interesting. Think Radiolab with a more pop culture feel.

Fighting in the War Room is a good nerd culture tv/film podcast.

I Was There Too interviews with people who had small roles on iconic films

 

Henry and Heidi was really good. Basically Henry Rollins assistant would ask him about these stories he had and he would tell them. They had really good chemistry and it was pretty good. He did it for about 6 months and then stopped for some reason. Hope they start up again. Really interesting.

 

Here's my current list and some thoughts. Really appreciating the recommendations in this thread.

Music
Hi My Name Is Mark
Voice & Verse
Lead Singer Syndrome
Encore

Literature, Film, Pop Culture
Filmspotting: I only listen to half the episodes based on what interests me, but they're very solid.
Coode Street: fantasy/sci-fi.
Geek's Guide to the Galaxy
The Tolkien Road
The Tolkien Professor

Education
Lexicon Valley: very insightful linguistics/word-history podcast.
TEDTalks: seem to be dropping in quality, but some are still interesting.
Speculative Grammarian: satirical linguistics. Not sure how funny it'd be to someone without a bit of a background, but I think it's hilarious.

Various
Unattended Consequences: Pat Rothfuss and Max Temkin, finished for now but might resume sometime, great if you're a fan of one or the other or both.
The Message: also finished?
Here's the Thing with Alec Baldwin: only listened to a few, but they've been good.
Serial: woefully behind.
America WK: always a great pick-me-up.

I'm only completely current on like four of these though. I'm working to catch up, and I've got a list of podcasts to check out, so I figure once I'm current on one here, I can add a new one from the list. Slow going, but it's fun.

 

Morning Short is a nice one for like short walks or commutes because it's short stories read aloud.
I also like Selected Shorts because it's longer and is a more live theater feeling.

 

Your Moms House
Doughboys
My Brother My Brother and Me
Get Up On This
Joe Rogan
The Nerdist
About to start Hello From the Magic Tavern

 

I listen to:

All of the Barstool Sports shows
WTF Marc Maron
Stuff You Should Know (select episodes)
Chewin It w/ Kevin and Steve (select episodes)
Mohr Stories (select episodes)
Joe Rogan (select episodes)

 

I wrote a post with a few of my favorites 7 Podcasts You Should Be Listening To

and then these

Joe Rogan
Nerdist
Pointless with Kevin Pereira
WTF w/ Marc Maron

 

I feel like at this point it's so misleading to say Steven is part of going off track. He's on an intro maybe once every couple of months. It's Jonah Bayer.

 

I was just going by what's on their official site -shrugs-

 

I know that's their selling point. It's why I ever checked it out in the first place.
