How has no one mentioned "Off Menu"? It's pretty much always my first choice of podcast if published a new one

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I only listen to two, usually while diving

  • Distractible
  • Fake Doctors, Real Friends with Zach and Donald

It's just people shooting the shit. Just friends chatting.

Darknet Diaries

None apart from that. You're better off listening to pirated audiobooks, especially the full-cast kind with SFX like those created by GraphicAudio

The Co-Main Event Stuff You Should Know Space Nuts Joy

Fly on the Wall, Smartless, and WTF, but only when they have interesting guests.

Believe You Me and Morning Kombat, but only when Iโ€™m in the right head space.

I like On Taking Pictures a lot. Nice podcast that really sparked my interest in photography about 10 years ago.

I try to stay away from political podcasts these days because I'm just too burnt out.

Only one I listen to sometimes is https://www.bsdnow.tv/ since I'm an OpenBSD user and it's interesting to hear about other BSDs from time to time.

Mainly listen to Australian podcast cause am one and find them more relatable. Listen to others as well but most the others already been mentioned. All are comedy. Faves are:

Mid flight brawl

Hamish and Andy

Mat and Alex all day breakfast

Yeah good

I'd recommend Boonta Vista to make your down-under fix complete.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Dave and Chuck "The Freak" and Well There's Your Problem.

Do radio shows count? I don't know that anyone has mentioned A Way With Words, in which the hosts answer questions from callers on any and all language questions.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Another big fan of Darknet Diaries.

Ever since Michael Bazzle of Privacy, Security & OSINT stopped doing the podcasts, I'm still trying to find a replacement. Am listening to The Lockdown - Practical Privacy and Security in the mean time.

Also listen to Linux Game Cast.

Any recommendations for sub 10min podcasts? I have a short commute and put it on 1.3 speed to get a dialy radio show.

I already have DW News, Tech News Briefing, Marketplace Tech, and a few like Male Your Damn Bed/Arnold's Punp Club.

Can always do with more.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I like to listen to NPR's "Up First", they would more or less be in that time range.
