Heard a great podcast? Give an episode and link and tell why we should listen.

Podcast: Hang Up and Listen
Episode: Extra - Muhammad Ali

An engaging interview with Robert Lipsyte who travelled with Ali from his first big victory to his last few months. I had enormous respect for Ali but never got how he was the GOAT, now I get his heroes journey. Great stories and insights within.

The Moth podcast.

Episode: , released Jun 7, 2016.

All four stories are good. It is rare to get a bad story from The Moth, but the last two from this episode are spectacular. I was sprouting tears by the end of the last one. Really well done.

[Mike]

And while we're on The Moth, the April 26th episode from this year, is the single most entertaining story (IMO) from The Moth.

In the last month I've been obsessed with Doughboys, which is fantastic funny. If you are at all a fan of comedy podcasts, especially the LA improv/sketch comedy scene, pretty sure you'll love this.

http://www.feralaudio.com/show/doughboys/

Latest show is with improv podcast superhero Lauren Lapkus about Pinkberry, with a lot of lol moments throughout, but I suggest you look through their archive and pick out either a restaurant you want to hear them joke about or a guest you recognize. My favorite shows include the recent Jolibee with Jonah Ray and Wendy's with Paul Rust, but there are a ton of ace shows.

[Mike]

I'm in. Thank you, Pete.

[Cazmonster]

Starting in on Doughboys with the episode on Popeye's Chicken.

Holy Crap - Ghoulies and Exorcist to kick this off. These people are eclectic. "MILK WAS A BAD CHOICE!"


===========================================================

Well crap. I held on for 45 minutes and there was no talk of Popeye's. I don't know that I can deal with a two hour podcast that sounds a lot like morning radio.

PHIL HENDRIE PODCAST FOR LIFE!

Also I was deleted? This place looks brand new,

[Mike]

Yeah, I tried Doughboys, but it's in the category of comedians-talking-to-comedians. It's very funny, but not substantive enough.

[Mike]

And yes... new forums. All old accounts had to be recreated.

[bralbovsky]

My favorite moth of all is this one from a long time ago:

[Cazmonster]

I have The Moth marked on my pocketmod. There's a lot of stuff written there to do. I should put The Moth near the top.

[DMDarcs]

Here's everything on my list with a few notes on some that may not be as well known/mentioned. Put in alphabetical order.

Ask Me Another
Best Radio You Have Never Heard
The Black Tapes
The Cracked Podcast

[Cazmonster]

Okay - it's a youtube show, not a podcast, but the Hot Ones interviews from First We Feast are a great time.

Nightmare Magazine - - Horror short stories with one of the best readers I have ever heard! (Stefan Rudnicki)- Reaper's Rose was the first episode I heard and the one I love most.

Your Weird A podcast about everyone's different odd behaviors without getting too psycho-analytical. Great hosts. Best episode is "Tim's Movies"

The Dice Tower A podcast about board, card, dice, and RPG games and the people who play them...excellent hosts and some great stories too "Tales of Board-gaming Horror" "Tales of Amazement" and a top ten countdown for the specific category at the end of each show. Every episode is good...except that I am not a fan of the "Live from ________Con" titles that come out occasionally.

Stuff You Missed In History A nice change to listen to two ladies talking about historical people places and things that you may never have heard of. I just listened to 'The Archaemenid Empire" episode and I am betting Mike will want to listen to the "The discovery of 'Planet' Ceres" episode

The Allusionist British Ladies voice...If you need more than that, It is about grammar and the English language." Mountweazel" is one of my favorite episodes, but there are no bad ones.

ARTC's Podcast The Atlanta Radio Theater Company podcast does old style radio theater performances of classic novels, etc. Fully dramatized, fully sound-scaped audio-drama. My favorite episode is their retelling of "The Call of Cthulhu"

Game of Drones A podcast to bore you to sleep. No, really, that is the goal. It is a rambling podcast about all sorts of things from Game of Thrones, the TV series.

Trek.FM podcasts
Saturday Morning Trek A podcast where they discuss the animated Star Trek show. favorite episode "So You Think You Got Tribbles"
but wait, there's more....TREK.FM creates a lot of podcasts centered on the world of Star Trek and even one on that Star Wars flash-in-the-pan movie.
The Ready Room, To The Journey, Continuing Mission, Hyperchannel, Earl Grey, Meta Treks, Standard Orbit, Literary Treks, Melodic Treks, Stage Nine, Warp Five, The Orb, Commentary:Trek Stars, Matter Stream:Science Creativity, and the world, Captain's Log, Deck Eight, Mission Log,Women at Warp, Star Trek Behind The Scenes With Larry Nemecek, Star Wars: A 602 Club Collection something for everyone there!

Douglas and Dragons: An actual play Pathfinder podcast This is my only contact with Pathfinder in actual play...other than at DragonCon

[poorpete]

Was happy to find another Doughboy fan in real life, understandable that it might not be top-listening for most people.

I'm a Slate Plus member and have been really enjoying their Dear Prudence podcast. It's funny, debatey, produced well, and the host is great. It's been behind the firewall for a few months, but now it's available for public consumption!

Start with "Secret Nudity Treehouse" to see if you like it:

Okay, harvesting the last few posts for new stuff to try. Surprisingly, pretty much everything on SB's list (except for the true crime stuff) are ones I listen to now or have listened to in the past.

Newly added: Nightmare Magazine, Dice Tower, ARTC, Caffeinated Comics (recommended on Angry Geeks VS), and The Allusionist. I know I've listened to The Allusionist before, but I don't remember anything about it. I'll give it another shot. The host of Allusionist is Helen Saltzman. Her brother Andy was half of The Bugle podcast with John Oliver before John went all famous. Andy is also a big fan of wordplay.

[poorpete]

You are pretty keen on Andy's wordplay. It's like you Ex-zalts-man.
