Who listens to them?
Only recently have I began downloading and listening to podcasts. I usually just download them to my phone and listen to it when I'm out walking my dog (read:watching her obliterate sticks while I smoke a joint) by the river.
It started out with Ricky Gervais' (plus his old radio stuff), then I found Marc Marons WTFpod, and I love it tbh. So many good interviews with alot of people I have respect for.
I also enjoy what I've heard from the SModcast network. I've caught a few episodes of Jay & SIlent Bob grow old (or something along those lines) and the ABCs of SNL with Jon Lovitz.
So, what podcasts do you listen to, and when and where?
Listening while walking, doing house chores or while driving by myself long distances (get bored with music).
Keith and the Girl - Been listening to this one for about 5 years. Quite good and funny, though lately its sometimes very painfull to listen. Dont know if its because ive grown up a bit since i started listening or that the host changed for the worst over time, but sometimes their ignorance about certain things and retarted opinions are just too much. Still listening to it though. Show goes out 5 times per week.
Galactic Watercooler - Started about as a podcast about Battlestar Galactica, now its about everything sci-fi.
1Up.coms Retronauts - podcast about classic games, sometimes with interviews with people that worked on classic titles. Good fun and interesting insight abot the game industry.
Nature podcast - ifficial podcast of the Nature magazine. Latest in sience discoveries in podcast form.
Startalk - This one is hosted by Neil Degrasse Tyson. Nuff said.
Exploration - Science again! But this time with dr. Michio Kaku
Mad Money with Jim Cramer - Because one day that man will either have a hear attack or go completely insane during a show and god damnit im not going to miss that!!! Wonder if people will notice or will just think hes tring to make some point or another about stocks.
I listen to too many to list but current/ongoing favorites
This American Life - NPR
Wiretap - CBC Jonathan Goldstein and his friends always taking the piss and mocking him in everyway imagineable
Design Matters - Debbie Milman designer, graphic design, creative chit chat
The Candid Frame - Photography podcast, interviews
The Daily Edition - 5by5, all things web design and technology
Let's make mistakes - graphic design chit chat, business advice etc

Vernissage Tv - just as the title implies
CLR Podcast - label podcast
Gestalten TV - podcast from the publisher for upcoming book releases

Many MP3 players have a "fast" option that plays 50% faster than the actual recording, so you can get through them quite a lot faster.

| Originally posted by dj_alfi What do you think of the premium wtf-accts/apps? I've yet to go through all of the free ones, but I'm running out, and I'm hoping I'll find the older ones on somewhere for free, for nothing appeals less to me than a fucking app to stream/download with when I got a fully functioning browser on my phone. Besides, I normally download them on my computer then transfer them to my phone. Aanyways, You should check out Kevin Smiths smodcasts too. Pretty much the same atmosphere and tempo as the wtfpod, only alot of them has an audience. www.smodcast.com |

| Originally posted by stren haven't heard the premium ones. Don't have any smart phone and I'm too cheap to buy them. I have been looking for them for free, but no luck |

| Originally posted by jdat expand on what? Radiophonic creation? Think of it as theater for radio but not in such rigid theater centric terms. There can be sound effects, sound sculpting etc for make a form of radio play. Call it audio art if you must. Didn't realize there was a car talk podcast! For a long time there wasn't. I'll get right on that one haven't heard these boston bast*rds in forever. |

In this hour of Radiolab, we take to the street to ask what makes cities tick. There's no scientific metric for measuring a city's personality. But step out on the sidewalk, and you can see and feel it. Two physicists explain one tidy mathematical formula that they believe holds the key to what drives a city. Yet math can't explain most of the human-scale details that make urban life unique. So we head out in search of what the numbers miss, and meet a reluctant city dweller, a man who's walked 700 feet below Manhattan, and a once-thriving community that's slipping away. |
