Favourite Podcasts?

[MrBen]

At the moment I'm brushing up on Advanced French, enjoying Radio 4's The Bottom Line with Evan Davis and learning all about Fly Fishing in Mexico. Podcasts are great and keep me sane on long trips.

Care to share yours?

The good doctor kermodes film podcast. Eloquent, passionate and correct

That said he is on holiday for two weeks as of now, but still

Danny bakers 5 live podcast over the world cup was awesome as well. Even for non football people

Richard bacon 5 live podcasts aren't bad either

[paragon]

Surely there is more advice than this out there from the good folk of ED.

I am starting to listen to Podcasts and would welcome some tips

Any advice?

Doctor Kermode's weekly film podcast gets my vote too - passionate, educational, controversial and usually hilarious. Great for commuting and long journeys.

Adam and Joe are sadly no longer on R6 but I think you can get their back catalogue at i-Tunes.

My favourite is The Moth Podcast, true stories told live in front of an audience. All sorts of stories from a variety of people, some funny, some moving and almost always unpredictable.

Also like:

The First Time with Matt Everitt

The Joy of 6

Women's Hour

The Food Programme

The Bottom Line

A History of the World in 100 Objects has been recommended to me but I haven't listened yet.

[Horsebox]

The Low End Theory

Truly eclectic mixes from LA.

@ felt-tip: if you like resident advisor then I suggest you get to know.

Love LBC Steve Allen?s in conversations, with some well known stars that have been in show business a long time and what there thoughts and life experiences are. I recently was listening to Steve Allen speaking to Gladys?s Knight and writer Bob Crier very interesting people.

For long trips I take my Ipod with various classical unabridged books down loaded from the net,

for a mere fraction of the cost of a set of cd's or tapes.

I also take cd's and tapes for a long car trip though.

I'm a big Dr Kermode fan too

others I subscribe to Guardian music weekly and PRI The World's Tech broadcast

Hello,

These are all cool podcasts.

Here is a list of very cool podcasts that I have discovered over the last few years:

Stuff you should know - Two funny guys discuss and educated on something different every week.

Freakonomics radio - Another really interesting duo make funny and educational stuff.

Hamish and Andy - 2 of the best radio DJ's I've ever heard. Australian radio. They're near the end now but their catalogue should be on there.

Search for "Meet the filmmaker" and you should a whole bunch of great interviews with directors and writers.

SModcast: Kevin Smith and his producer Scott Mosier. Funny if you like that sort of humour.

Look up "John Lennon: The Rolling Stone interview"

And Answer me this is pretty funny too.

I generally just get sport ones but I'm guessing you're not too interested in that.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for this, I've subscribed since you posted it. Recommended.

In fact I never bothered with podcasts at all before this thread but new phone plus this means I now get it.

The Guardian's Football Weekly is good also.

The Business of Film, an excellent 3 parter with Mark Kermode on how films are developed from a concept ,financed and then marketed.
