The Which Technology Podcast is pretty good for the latest techie news.

I'm liking BBC Comedy of the Week as well.

Ive just started to get into a great podcast with Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes called Jay and Silent Bob get old

Its recorded in front of a live audience and is designed to be an intervention for Mewes sobriety
Really enjoying it

Any recommendations for good podcasts?

Obviously "The Anfield Wrap", that goes without saying and is a twice weekly "must".

Try the Football Ramble, which is an irreverant look at the weeks football and quite entertaining.

John_P · « **Reply #43 on:** November 24, 2012, 02:18:48 pm »

Football weekly from the Guardian is very good.

Also listen to The Empire film podcast and Wittertainment which is Kermode and Mayos 5 live film review show

I'm a religious listener to the 5 Live Film Review podcast with Kermode and Mayo. Started listening to Adam and Joe last year, and am now almost all the way through their back catalogue. Going to check out Adam and Edith, but it can't possibly be as good.

Try the other Kevin Smith podcasts, Hollywood Babble-On and Smodcast

Other than those two, I usually listen to The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe and StarTalk Radio.

Listened to the first half earlier. Will finish it when I get home from work a little bit later on.

It's brilliant.

I went off Wittertainment a while ago, got annoyed how a 90 minute show still always has to cram in the new reviews into about 5 minutes.

And Mayo is a smug bell who doesn't even bother to sound interested half the time, he has become Harry Shearer's DJ from Wayne's World 2.

A very, very good gaming one is Xbox World 360's podcast. Unfortunately the mag is due to close, so there will be no more. If you're interested, they're on Itunes and CVG.com.
The Bundesliga Weekly is decent too.

Hi guys, if you get some spare time, take a listen to TBT Talks, the podcast I've been on recently, I'd appriciate any feedback. Ta.

There's loads of podcasts I've been listening to recently

The Anfield Wrap - obviously

Hollywood Babble-On and Smodcast - The 2 Kevin Smith podcasts mentioned above

Harmontown - Dan Harmon (who created the TV show Community) in front of a live crowd, usually pissed and going off on massive tangents. Can be a mess, but usually very, very funny. And even when it's not that funny, it's never less than compelling to listen to

Firewall & Iceberg - Two TV critics from the US talking about the week's television shows. Very US-centric as you'd expect, but they talk a lot about the type of shows I like (Mad Men, Breaking Bad etc) and I usually pick up a good few recommendations from there.

Now and again I'll listen to Marc Maron's WTF where he interviews comedians about their life and career but it usually depends on who the guest is. Ditto for The Nerdist.

Love Football Weekly from the Guardian. I go running twice a week so listen to both episodes.

Always listen to the Friday night comedy podcast from radio 4

Some good stuff on there.

cissepower · « **Reply #57 on:** March 31, 2013, 01:24:10 pm »

The Anfield Wrap and The Joe Rogan Experience are the only ones I listen to religiously.

Going to give some of the suggestions in here a go. I like the sound of the radio 4 comedy one.

I find that one a bit boring to be honest. Much prefer Football Weekly, although it is the drier of the two.

The only thing I don't like about it is their unwavering commitment to England and support of Hodgson.

Its just nice to have a football podcast where they don't treat it as very serious business like the rest of them.

Stevie-A · « **Reply #62 on:** April 1, 2013, 04:22:36 pm »

Tell em Steve Dave is my favourite Smodco podcast.
The Whiskey Brothers podcast is hilarious (see the Doug Stanhope episode).
Closer to home, the best recent pod was Richard Herrings Leicester Square interviews with comedians. Often inspired.

I used to listen to the Football Ramble, but after a time I just found them all fairly insufferable, for different reasons.

ericthered10 · « **Reply #65 on:** April 2, 2013, 02:30:44 pm »

Joe rogan
Adam Carolla
Fitzdog Radio- Greg Fitzsimmons' podcast that is a healthy mix of comedy, current politics, philosophy, career talk, etc in a one on one or three person conversation. Check it out.
Pointless- Kevin Pereira's podcast on Joe Rogan's network. Not the best guests yet as its still new, but Kevin is extremely smart and a very natural host, lots of technology and civil liberties discussion.
Comedy Bang Bang- the host interviews his guest, then several comedians come in to improv characters and it generally gets really funny. Very guest dependent.
Smartest Man in the World- Greg Proops in front of a live audience every week. Crazy obscure references, crowd work, liberal politics, and the man can just talk for days and still be entertaining.

Not sure if they count as Podcasts, but David Mitchell's soapbox is excellent.

anfield wrap religiously for me,

tried football weekly for the first time this morning, had to turn it off after about 15 minutes and deleted it from my feed, 1 person in particular, not sure who it was, but he talked to much shite for me to be wasting my time listening to

tried the football ramble as well which i quite enjoyed and will definately listen to from now on,

going to try the somedy one from radio 4 on tomorrows commute to work

weezernumber5 · « **Reply #68 on:** May 1, 2013, 11:01:09 pm »

Most of the stuff I'd listen to has already been mentioned but just recently got on Hardcore Histories by Dan Carlin. He was on the Rogan podcast a while back, he does some top notch stuff if your into your history.

Probably Barry Glendenning, but they rotate the guests that much it could have been a one-off guest.

For those with at least a passing interest in history, the Rex Factor podcast is excellent. Basically 30-60 minutes on every monarch from Alfred The Great onwards. Good in depth knowledge and but presented in an entertaining way.

Friday Night Comedy from Radio 4 is always good - whether its The Now Show or the Friday Night Quiz, always worth a listen while running etc.

I've tried listening to Frank Skinner on Absolute Radio but I can't stand that pompous woman Emily Dean. She comes across like she hates men and anyone from the North.

I'm on the look out for more material though and I've tried some of the bizarre stuff that's been recommended before.

AndyInVA · « **Reply #77 on:** July 2, 2013, 11:56:04 pm »

I used to listen to frank skinner as well. A good comedian and pretty honest about himself. But that pompous snob Emily dean did it for me as well. No more frank.

John C · « **Reply #78 on:** July 2, 2013, 11:59:48 pm »

I'm glad its not just me then Andy, she fucking grates with her opinions about life. So much out of touch with reality, its all who she knows and where she goes. Shame because Skinner can chat funny stuff for hours which is handy if you're just doing the garden or running etc.

mazlo123 · « **Reply #79 on:** July 3, 2013, 05:48:43 am »

As a huge fan of comedic/light entertainment podcasts I can recommend :

The Bill Burr Monday Morning Podcast - Absolutely love it, one of the finest comedians of his generation. Take the time to listen through the whole back catalog and you wont be disappointed. *****

The Steve Austin Show - Former pro wrestler, excellent if you have any passing interest in wrestling or mma as he interviews former pros frequently. ****

The Joe Rogan Experience - Starting to get in to this now,picking out my favored comics from his back catalog. Over 300 podcasts to choose from.

The Adam Carolla show - Only staring to get in to this also but am a big fan of Adam Carolla. He tells it how it is or at least how he sees it.
