I like Mayo - he was the first golf touts I discovered as I was looking for help making rosters. I usually watch his videos about the majors because he'll have like 4-5 experts from around the DFS industry on. My only gripe is that he does his stuff so far in advance that it becomes dated quickly. Like he's probably releasing his Top 10 RBs and stuff now - so by the time the season rolls around everything has shifted a bit.

I listened to it for the first time yesterday and liked their golf pod. I did hear him mention trying to do the Open pod Sunday night or Monday morning and not knowing whether prices will be out yet. That seems kind of useless, but I liked it for entertainment value. I skipped his pop culture/life pod yesterday.

Last Podcast On The Left: Episode 274 & 275 re: Oklahoma City.

The guys doing the podcast are a bit annoying (laughing and joking about stuff that isn't all that funny), but I learned a few things that I didn't know before.

We listened to both episodes on the way back home from the cabin yesterday.

I've actually never heard his podcast - I've always just watched the YouTube videos of the Pay Mayo Hour... Not sure if they're the same in different formats or if the pod is separate. His golf content is definitely his best offering.

I've heard this one come up a few times - seems like maybe I downloaded one but didn't stick with it... What's their angle?

I think it's just the audio form of the YouTube.

They talk about really interesting subjects, but I get annoyed about all the joking around and laughter regarding some sensitive subjects. My wife thinks I'm too critical, but when you joke about the woman holding onto a severed hand for comfort after the OKC bombing, it's a bit over the top for me.

In their defense, they do excellent research and have a lot of "unknown" facts.

They do discuss interesting topics though. I could do without all the clowning around.

Everyone should listen to Malcolm Gladwell's latest edition of Revisionist History.

I really enjoy Joe Rogans podcast. He is a pretty interesting dude.

Ask and you shall receive, Haberstroh on Lowe Post.

He's just so profoundly good at his job that it's staggering. Both of the last two were great.

I've only listened to a couple - and they were just a little too meandering for me. I love Joe Rogan and I love longform anything - but at some point I desire a little more structure to the conversation.

Are there any in particular that I should check out? I think the last one I listened to was Maynard.

I haven't listened to many, and can't recall the guests. One was a comedian. With as many episodes as he has, there are bound to be many snoozers. Was the Maynard one any good?

The one with Dan Bizilian is pretty good. Dude got rich off of gambling. Now he is living this baller life, slept with 1000s of women and is basically a modern day hugh heftner. But...he went through hell week trying to become a Navy Seal with a broken leg.

But I recommend listening to the highlight clips and then decide if you want to watch the whole podcast.

Joe reminds me a little bit of Howard Stern but way more diverse and interesting.
