Share your favorite podcasts.

Hey folks.

I recently discovered podcasts. I think they're great, the only problem is that there are so damn many it's hard to pick out the good ones. I only have a few that I listen too regularly, but I would like to hear what great ones ATS might be sitting on.

My regulars right now are Stufftheydon'twantyoutoknow, Strange Matters and a couple local sports shows. One of those sports shows is from a rival city, but the guy just has an awesome show, don't judge me.

So please share your Weird, entertaining, educational, creepy or conspiracy themed podcasts with everyone.

Onion News Network

It's short so it doesn't take up too much time, but will definitely make your day.

Stand by for a BIG list!

ETA -

Astronomy and the Search for Extraterrestrial Artefacts and Intelligence = The Unseen Podcast (Paul Carr) and the Wow Signal Podcast. Such great shows and it's impossible to walk away without learning something. It's hosted and panelled by genuine scientists and presented in ways that are understood by laymen. Good example show.

Science and Wonder-based = Radiolab. I almost wish I could wipe out the memory of these shows just so I can re-listen to all of them again. Some of these episodes are life-changing and can open your eyes and mind to ideas that change the way you see the world.

The Infinite Monkey Cage covers everything in science. They have panel discussions that are usually light-hearted with plenty of laughs. Underneath the humour are discussions that can expand your knowledge of how scientists think and why we think what we think about quantum physics, the visible universe and dead strawberries.

Paranormal and Ufology-themed = Radio Misterioso hosted by Greg Bishop and with guests that span all the corners of the field. Guests are usually some of the best thinkers and speakers on these subjects and frequently published writers.

Binnall of America has great archives with interviews with Jacques Vallee, Anne Druffel etc. Lots of the big hitters; Nick Redfern makes good interviews too.

Mysterious Universe has posted some fantastic shows over the years with very high production values. I used to listen to all of them and nowadays just go for the ones with guests I like.

Comedy shows = Comedian's Comedian has Stuart Goldsmith interviewing other comedians about the craft and how they became who they are today. Very good shows. Richard Herring's RHLST podcasts are my favourites; he's a very funny bastard and has some excellent guests on there.

So much for a 'big list?!'

I got nine to recommend even though are a bunch of others I'll listen to. Mainly it's science and comedy I go to because I like learning new things and God knows a laugh in this life is pretty important!!

ETA - Forgot Dan Carlin, Joe Rogan, Chael Sonnen too. Must be a half dozen more than that as well.

I have 2 to lay on your thread 1st is The John Batchelor Show is a breaking-news program that focusses on global politics, economics, war-fighting, hard sciences, space exploration, literature and whimsy. Four hours a night, seven days a week; most rigorous news analysis in the New World; followed daily in 192 countries. audioboom.com...

The 2nd is the Naked Bible podcast .www.nakedbiblepodcast.com... A very interesting and a fresh way of looking at scripture ....

Mindsetcentral.com
unknowncountry.com
unexplainedtv with Howard hughes..

Not in any order but unknowncountry.com which the podcast is called dreamland has been going for years and has a fantastical wealth of information mainly on paranormal events.

mindsetcentral.com has a set of guys from England Canada and the States breaking down the weeks news and putting their spin on it but they are basically wide awake to the New World Order and they curse a lot..adds a bit of humour.

Howard Hughes on unexplainedtv is an exceptional orator that has many varied subjects on his show which are mostly in the field of the paranormal and has a guest for interviewee for every show.

They all have about 1 show a week, I download them on itunes then put them on my Ipod.

Please don't judge me...

I was a big WWF fan when I was a kid, when I heard my fav wrestler ever did a podcast: Chris Jericho, I decided to listen.

What a nostalgia rush. Really good guests and conversations. Talks a lot about what goes on behind the scenes of the wrestling business as well as some funny stories!

I don't follow it now but its a good listen!

Joe Rogan has a lot of interesting guests from a broad range of disciplines.
Pseudopod and No Sleep are good sources of horror fiction.
The Subgenius Hour of Slack is good to trip on.
