Podcast Recomendations

[Unclebaldrick]

We haven't done a thread like this yet.

I like podcasts. There are some good ones and a lot of bad ones.

Since this is the one that made me think of this thread, my first recommendation is "Behind the Bastards" - a show about bad people. Funny, but well researched.

Behind the Bastards

 

[Unclebaldrick]

Or, maybe some history:

Real Dictators

Maybe a good documentary on North Korean hacking?

The Lazarus Heist

 

[Unclebaldrick]

I was really hoping for some of your recommendations.

I was really hoping for some of your recommendations.

The only actual podcast I have ever listened to (that is not a lecture or something) is from the one that you already suggested lol. Their explanation of Dr Oz was spot on.

Have not listened to that yet. Did Dr. Phil though. Prick.

Loved the Ben Shapiro book reading. Laffs galore.

Revolutions

Covers histories of revolutions in Europe and the Americas from England in the 1600's through to the end of the Russian Revolution in the 1900's. Mike Duncan bagan the series in 2013 and is just now finishing up in June 2021. He's a good story teller and keeps his listener engaged through various tools that a story teller uses. It's nothing like Ms Miller's US history class.

the English revolution, US revolution, French revolution, Haitian revolution, South American revolution, the European economic upheaval that led to failed revolutions in the early to mid 1800's, Mexican revolution, and the Russian revolution. In each series, he covers history prior to the revolutions, the people, motivations, issues, shenanigans, corrupt acts, betrayals, executions, assassinations and aftermath. Who needs a detective novel when we have real-life skulduggery?



If I were to pick one that contained the most surprises was the Mexican Revolution. But I have listened to and liked them all.

When I had a Spotify account it was super easy to find and listen to podcasts, not so much anymore with my apple tunes account which I am thinking about quitting now.
On Spotify I would listen to the morning Joe and Michelle Obama’s podcast. I would like to listen to Bruce Springsteen and Obama’s podcast
Somehow.

The NYT has one called Day X. It's a heartwarming story about neo-nazis in Germany preparing for the day they overthrow their gub'mint.

I don’t listen to podcasts so I can’t make any recommendations. On my daily runs I’m listening to music so I could only share some of my playlists. I’ve been listening to the Hamilton soundtrack a lot lately on my runs. I just can’t get enough of that shit. It’s brilliant.

Apologies for the off topic post.

Well, this is too obvious but have you checked out "The PotCast"?

 

[captainmorgan]

The World Beneath, podcast about organized crime and it ties into ex president Stinky.

 

[blu3bird]

I like the best of "Coast to Coast AM" hosted by George Noory

It's got all sorts of crazy shit -
Life after death
UFO's
Paranormal
Psychics
Strange encounters

Some of his old standup is lots of fun, but he's become a bit too kooky since Trump hyperpoliticized all the things.

I have Spotify again and listened to this one today and happy to say really like her storytelling. She kinda hooked me with this Charles Manson podcast. At first I was a bit taken aback by her voice but it grew on me quickly and then I was realized she has some really interesting insights .
