Recommend me some podcasts please!

[Parkmama]

I have recently started to listen to podcasts when walking the dog and also when cleaning / cooking etc around the house and am really enjoying them. It's probably one of the few positives that has emerged from these blimmin lockdowns!

Can you recommend any good ones please?

Hey, we’ve just recorded our first podcast. We’re a group of 7 new mums who are talking about our experiences being pregnant, giving birth and raising babies during a pandemic. If you want more info, please give me a shout

What are you into?
I like
Off Menu (comedy &food)
Adam Buxton (interviews and rambling chat)
In Focus from the Guardian (current affairs)
Ear Hustle (American prison broadcast)
This American Life (America, current affairs, stories)
Grounded with Louis Theroux (interviews)
Any of them appeal? Or tell us ones you do like.

My favourites are Adam Buxton, Blindboy and Louis Theroux.

I am listening to Grounded by Louis Theroux and so far have enjoyed:

• Hunting Ghislaine Maxwell
• Feel Better Live More
• LuAnna The Podcast
• The Missing Crypto Queen

Pretty random! thanks for your suggestions so far

My all time favourite is The Teacher's Pet.

Bad People is very good. A comedian and a psychologist discuss true crime cases

Lady Justice
The Storyteller: Murder Most Foul (season 1)
Paradise
Death in Ice Valley
Serial Season One
Direct Appeal
Accused - season 1
Finding Cleo

and season 2

So many more that I can't think of right now!

Oh and also

Believed
16 Shots
74 Seconds
Bag Man

Ooh sorry also

All seasons of Someone Knows Something

Behind the Bastards has some good episodes.
Secret world of slimming clubs is very funny.

Hey!!
If you like true crime definitely Serial season 1 & I've finally found something just as good - it's called Crime junkie... every episode is a different true crime story & there's no long drawn out intro or lots of talking; they get straight to it! (First episode is a bit slow but after that it's amazing!!)

I saw Sword and Scale recommended on here and I love it. True crime with lots of original recordings and sound mixed in with commentary. Some of them are very dark, so caution needed if you are sensitive, but fascinating and really hooks you in with the genuine audio.

I like

the news quiz on radio 4,
Cautionary tales with Tim Harford
More or less - radio 4
Older and wider
Dan snows History hit

For any fans of St Elwicks and Beef and Dairy network I would thoroughly recommend the new podcast from the same people - Three Bean Salad. First episode is available now and is very funny

Whilst I'm not normally keen on the three blokes talking about stuff style of podcast this is gentler and funnier than the usual trope

I am currently enjoying Josh widdicome and Rob Beckett parenting in lockdown - very funny!

@Landlubber2019 agreed, very funny!

Rock and roll farming

Feel Better Live More

Tipsy Tourism

Well there's your problem
Marked safe

Both podcasts about engineering/man made disasters.

If you like true crime, I can recommend:

my favourite murder
Murder squad
Criminal
Crime junkie

Bad Women

It’s the retelling of the five women to have been murdered by Jack the Ripper

It’s focussed on their lives not the gruesome murders

I also love Crime Junkie, Stuff You Should Know, Short Histories and Dark Histories

Mark Steel - What the fuck is going on. Talks about current affairs, has a guest on each week, its very funny

As you're walking your dog whilst not listen to "Walking the dog" by Emily Dean. She's a great interviewer and basically chats about dogs and life with a variety of famous individuals whilst walking their dogs.

My current podcasts are a mixed bunch:

You’re Dead To Me (history/comedy)
Not Just The Tudors (history)
Real Crime Profile (true crime)
Crime Analyst (true crime)
Parenting Hell (comedy)
How To Fail (interviews)
Taskmaster (comedy)

If you’re a fan of The West Wing I highly recommend West Wing Weekly which is a few years old but an excellent listen covering every single episode.
