Podcast what do you listen to/Recommend

I have been listening to podcasts for years. Recently, I have noticed a big burst of podcast publicity so I have been listening to everything under the sun.
Most of it is crap but I have found a few good ones that I will recommend.

The great thing about Podcasts is that it's unfiltered and you can pretty much say just about anything that isn't illegal.

Here are some that I highly recommend to anyone, these have really made a positive difference in my life.

  • NPR Sience Friday ... Obviously :)
  • The positive Mind with Armand Dimel
  • NPR TED radio hour
  • NPR invisibilia
  • Art of Manliness
  • This American life
  • The 4X4 Podcast
  • NPR Planet Money
  • BBC World Service Documentaries

There's a lot more but the ones I listed are the most interesting with a lot of meat in the podcast and not so much wasted conversation.

Another great, great great podcast is Serial.
Serial is about this guy who got convicted of murder based off mostly cell phone record data. I wont give it any justice, if you like Crime/Drama/Real stories, this is a must. More info > Serial

I have Android and I use Pocketcasts but there's a ton of free podcast apps and the best part is most if not all podcasts are free!

What has everyone else been listening to/Recommendations?

Plus several you listed above. But most of this week I've been using the Tunein Radio app to listen to national radio as well as the BBC. I have an Android and I use the app called Doggcatcher. It is a few bucks but worth.

[MENTION=65101]BrianSD_42[/MENTION] thatnks for sharing... Sounds like most of your interest is around politics..

I know I keep referencing Invisibilia.. This last episode hits home (flip the script), they talk about why some (not all) people gravitate to ISIS and why they would leave to support such a dark cause.

Here's the link, again I highly encourage that everyone listen to all episodes.. though, this one has political influence.

Flip the Script : Invisibilia : NPR
 
I fill the non politics gap with books.

Task & Purpose (not politics)
Democracy Now (not politics)
Planet Money (not politics)
Real Time
Serial (not politics)
Hardcore History (not politics)
NPR Politics
Unsolved Murders (not politics)

Has anyone tried the podcasts on Google Play Music yet? Or what app are you using to download them for offline use?

Ted Talk
Revisionist History
Common Sense w/ Dan Carlin
Decoding Westworld
TWIT
 
Anyone with even a casual interest in the NFL should check out the Ross Tucker Football Podcast. He's a former player and current broadcaster who offers outstanding insight and has awesome guests, many of whom you won't hear anywhere else.

For example, he interviewed the NFL's chief schedule-maker, who explained all of the crazy things that must be considered when coming up with a workable schedule. It was fascinating.
 
I listen to the occasional No Jumper podcast. Not your average podcast stuff, interviews with rappers, youtubers, BMX and skate pros, and random famous people. Mostly off base stuff.
 
One of the BEST

Stuff You Should Know.

Great topics that keep you interested as well as the two hosts have a great dry sense of humor and keep the podcast ruling. Also learn a lot of cool stuff about random topics.
