Do any of you listen to podcasts? Tell me your favorites!
This’ll be heavily weighted toward history-related podcasts, and I prefer scripted to unscripted shows. So with my biases in mind:
- The History of Rome
- The History of Philosophy
- S Town (aka Shit Town)
- Serial
- Fictional
- Myths & Legends
- Hardcore History (his delivery is an acquired taste, but he often lingers on salacious details, and I love me some salacious details)
- The Ancient World
- Revolutions (from the History of Rome guy)
- Freakanomics
- WTF with Marc Maron
- Lore
- As a dedicated and eternal NewsRadio fan, I am contractually obligated to listen to any episode of Joe Rogan that features Andy Dick or Dave Foley. I’m not proud of this, but it’s in the rules.
I’ve tried a few true-crime podcasts over the years, figuring that would be a sweet spot for me, but so far… bleh.
