What podcasts are you listening to?

[Eileen101]

I've discovered BBC sounds... What would you recommend I listen to?

I generally enjoy documentaries, comedy, amongst other things.

Mine are a bit on the lighthearted side compared to these, and they're quite short but here goes-

Making the Cut (Davina McCall & Michael Douglas)
Rob Brydon (talking to a different guest each time)
Literally with Rob Lowe (same as Rob Brydon-chatting to a guest)
Two Pints with Will and Ralf (v rude but v funny)

My favourite is Teach me a Lesson with Greg James and Bella Mackie.

Adam Buxton (chat/interviews)
Oh God What Now (politics)
Dear Joan and Jericha (comedy)
S-Town and Serial (real life stories - S-Town is particularly good)
This American Life (real life stories)
The Moth (real people telling stories live)
Fortunately (Jane and Fi)
Uncanny/Battersea Poltergeist

@CryingAtTheDiscotheque, I love This American Life, Serial and STown. Have you listened to the latest Nice White Parents? It's fascinating.
I enjoy Jon Ronson too.
Fortunately is a favourite too.

Crime Junkie.... I'm slightly obsessed!

@EmmaH2022

I'm not big on podcasts but feel the need to find some...

this is very specific but any female comedy recs? Like Smack the Pony, I guess, but on the radio.

@EmmaH2022 Dear Joan and Jericha?

DrHildegard thanks, I will try that.

Joe Rogan
Triggernometry
Disaffected
Redhanded
Uncanny 😱 - so scary
Talking Sopranos
New Discourses - James Lindsay
Spiked weekly roundup podcast out on a Friday

You know what I'd love? A show like Triggernometry RAW but presented by women.

I guess I'm fussy! 😂

@FloweringAcer yes Nice White Parents was SO interesting
I like Jon Ronson too - have his latest cued up.
I think we must have similar tastes!

Some great recs here. Marian Keyes and Tara Flynn have just started a podcast 'now you're asking' - answering listener problems. I'm enjoying that one a lot.

'Lore' is great - folklore and spooky stories from around the world if you like that sort of thing!

Maddie - all about the Madeleine McCann case.

Teacher's Pet - an unsolved missing person's case in Australia.

I like
Ways to change the world
Uncanny
The morality of everyday things
Full Disclosure (James O'Brien)

There's a lot more to podcasts than BBC Sounds. Have a look on Spotify, Itunes or download an android app like PodBean for far more choice

This was so shocking! I was open-mouthed at the 'reveal'.

You're Wrong About.

My favourites are the high low and you're wrong about
Also really like sentimental garbage
But my advice is to search for any random topic you're really interested in- eg my current fave podcasts are 'behind the blinds' 'dunzo' and 'les deux you remember this' which feature lots of gossip and discussion on 00s pop culture such as Laguna beach and Britney Spears- very guilty pleasure but so nostalgic and funny - I discovered these by googling 'Heidi and Spencer' (if you know you know !!)
