I wish Dan Carlin put together a list of all the quotes he used in the Blueprint for the Apocalypse. They are all haunting and distill the essence of World War 1.
I got started on Podcasts by serial, then let my passion die out. Buddy at work got me started on Startup, and then got into Reply All from there. Both very good.
My list: Dan Carlin's Hardcore History Freakonomics (backlogging) How did this get made? Joe Rogan Experience Mohr Stories (backlogging) Planet Money (backlogging) Radiolab (backlogging) 99% invisible (backlogging) Stuff you should know This American Life Leviathan Serial I subscribe to podcasts once I catch up on all the backlogged ones. There's a lot more I want to get to but can't bring myself to do it until I've caught up. I rarely listen to music anymore and am able to consume a lot of them between driving, doing chores and if I'm in certain areas at work.
My list: Never Not Funny (My favorite regular show Comedy Bang Bang How Did This Get Made With Special Guest Lauren Lapkus The Lowe Post Grantland NFL podcast Then also just waiting on more episodes of: U Talkin U2 To Me? The Andy Daly Podcast Pilot Project
Found 2 more story podcasts if anyone liked Leviathan Chronicles FETIDUS-http://www.jamesdurham.com/about-fetidus. FETIDUS-Foundation for the Ethical Treatment of the Innocently Damned, Undead, and Supernatural. I've never read the Dresden Files, but the description sounds a bit like it. We're Alive-http://www.werealive.com/. It's a zombie apocalypse story with all of the sound effects like Leviathan.
Big fan of Hollywood Babbel-on Friendly Kev Smith and Ralph Garman just talking about random pop culture stuff
Bill Barnwell and Robert Mays, of the Grantland NFL Podcast, released an episode of their pod today, except it featured no NFL coverage or discussion and instead they reviewed and discussed Under Siege 2 for 65 minutes. It was surprisingly entertaining.
So I was listening to Never Not Funny and they were talking about an upcoming U2 show they are going to in LA, this excited me because I thought about the potential for a new episode of U Talkin' U2 To Me soon
We are Legion. Listen to all of those except Never Not Funny. Pardo's voice just bugs me. You need to try Spontaneanation. I also love Amazing Collosal Podcast with Gilbert Gottfried. His knowledge of old Hollywood is encyclopedic and amazing. Also, will tell you whether or not someone is a Jew. For example, Cary Grant was Jewish. Also, Adam West and Caesar Romero (played Joker on TV) once got kicked out of an orgy together.
Never Not Funny is just the best to me and is my favorite podcast. I have been meaning to try and listen to Spontaneanation but just haven't had the time.
Okay, I finished the first "season" of Leviathan, and then I saw that they're only on Episode 38, and it has been a couple years since anything new came out. I figured that's because they just ended it after 38 even though they said it would be 50 episodes. Then I looked it up, and I see that they just never finished it? WTF? Is it worth continuing to listen to if it's never going to get a proper ending?
And, YES, I realize the irony of not listening to a podcast because I find someone's voice annoying then suggesting a podcast with Gilbert Gottfried.
There's a post on their website from last October saying they were finishing up the second half of season 2. So no content or updates in 6 months. And the episodes aren't showing up on ITunes now either. I was on episode 36.
Are there any podcast Apps out there (Android) that break a podcast down into segments? Like, if a certain podcast has several different segments to its show, is there a way to just listen to certain segments and not the whole show? Obviously i could just fast fwd through to the segment I want but I won't konw what time in the cast that it starts.
Leviathan, if they ever finish it was extremely entertaining. We're Alive Twilight Histories If you want to be entertained, use Parsec award nominees. The best (imo) is Best Speculative Fiction Audio Drama (Long Form). http://www.parsecawards.com/past-awards/2013-parsec-awards-finalists/
No mention of Startalk? One of the better Science Podcasts out there. Neil degrasse Tyson is fantastic and he always has a comedian on to put everything into perspective for us plebeians. Chuck Nice is my favorite.
Hey nong man! I just started last week's with Michael Ian Black and Lapkus but I think I'm gonna skip it in favor of this morning's ep.
99% Invisible is a tiny radio show about design, architecture & the 99% invisible activity that shapes our world. The show started life as a project of KALW public radio in San Francisco and the American Institute of Architects in San Francisco. We are distributed by PRX on PRX Remix and public radio stations around the country. We are a completely independent production and raise all of our funds directly from the listeners, most notably from our record breaking Kickstarter campaign, and from podcast underwriters. Praise for 99% Invisible “99% Invisible…is completely wonderful and entertaining and beautifully produced…” -Ira Glass, This American Life “We think what he’s doing is inspiring. It has a kind of rhythm and musicality that you don’t normally find in radio or podcast storytelling.” -Jad Abumrad, Radiolab “Roman Mars lights the radio. His pieces conjure other worlds, grapple with big ideas, make sound three dimensional. They are smart and funny and original. The Kitchen Sisters would like to be Presidents of his Fan Club.” –The Kitchen Sisters, Peabody Award-winning producers for NPR “I love the show. It’s wonderful. [It] actually reminded me of why I love radio.” -Jonathan Goldstein, CBC’s WireTap
I've been falling asleep to hardcore history the last few nights. Anyone else use podcasts to fall asleep? Just started and I'm enjoying it
Been doing this for months. I find it much more soothing and quicker than reading I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
