    I consume podcasts relentlessly - and am always looking for new good ones. Therefore we need a thread to trade recommendations.

    Here are some of my favorites:

    The Tim Ferris Show - Hands down the best podcast going. He interviews world-class performers and extracts all of their tips and secrets and habits, etc. It's life-changing.

    Some good true crime podcasts - Sword and Scale (super graphic and disturbing, but well produced); In the Dark; Generation Why; Casefile True Crime; Thinking Sideways, Real Crime Profile

    Political podcasts - Keepin it 1600, Fivethirtyeight Elections, Slate's Political Gabfest, Politico's Off Message, Radio Free GOP with Mike Murphy, The Axe Files with David Axelrod

    General Content - Longform, Recode, then lots of fantasy sports pods

    What are you guys listening to?

    You turned us on to Serial - and we loved that podcast. I'm never in the car long enough to get into podcasts, but we're taking a long roadtrip this winter, so we need a couple good ones.

    He's kind of boring most of the time - but I love Axe. He had an awesome podcast with Jon Stewart earlier this year.

    You should check out the "In the Dark" podcast about the disappearance of Jacob Wetterling. It's about halfway through the season at this point.

    Pardon My Take is by far my favorite. They are a satire sports podcast from Barstool Sports. The famous Twitter account PFTcommenter is one of the hosts. It's one of the most hilarious things out there.

    In The Dark is fantastic. I had a very pereferral knowledge of the Wetterling case. It's a very sad, but fascinating story. The investigation was botched badly.

    ESPN's Pin/Kings was excellent. Just a crazy story of two wrestling buddies who ended up on opposite sides of the cocaine war in the 80s and 90s. I think it's 17 episodes.

    All Songs Considered, Tiny Desk Concerts and Rolling Stone now are the music podcasts I listen to.

    The Dollop. A comedy podcast with some history.

    Dan Carlin's Hardcore History.

    I subscribe to all of The Ringer podcasts, but The Watch, NFL and Shackhouse are my 3 favorite. I do listen to Simmons stuff, too.

    Favorite strictly sports:
    Baseball: Effectively Wild.
    Basketball: Vertical Podcast with Woj, Lowe Post.
    College Football: Solid Verbal.

    Kevin Smith has some good podcasts, but my favorite is Fatman on Batman which is basically him doing movie reviews so probably not a good one for Buff. Man that guy can tell a story though. Other good stuff from him and the Smodcast network is Tell 'Em Steve Dave and Jay and Silent Bob Get Old which can get surprisingly deep sometimes.

    For more traditional stuff:

    History/Culture:

    Revisionist History with Malcolm Gladwell - Neat reinterpretations of past events that give unique perspectives on a range of subjects from Wilt Chamberlain to a 98 year old pastor discussing his personal views on gay marriage in the Church.

    Hardcore History with Dan Carlin - Good discussions on topics like was Alexander the Great as bad as Hitler? Carlin is not an academic but he does a great job of flipping the script on history in a fun and entertaining way. Great road trip podcast.

    General:

    Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! - The classic NPR quiz show that makes you feel really good or really bad about how well you know current events.

    Science Vs - Takes a hard scientific look at fact vs fiction on topics like Zika, G-Spots, and Fracking. Really informational without all the messy opinions. Fact based fun for everyone!


    Comedy:

    Monday Morning Podcast with Bill Burr - Really funny takes on the pressing issues of the day.

    WTF with Marc Maron - Smart comedy from a smart comedian. Pretty left leaning though (shocking, I know!)

    Entertainment:

    SMODCAST channels (see above). Otherwise when Game of Thrones comes back on I only ever really listen to The Game of Thrones Podcast from BaldMove.com. Two friends named Jim and Ron (one a book reader, one who only watches the show) break down the episodes each week from each others perspectives. A smaller podcast but they have a cult following for a reason. Really fun way to dig into the show during the season.

    Those are my big ones. I find others all the time but forget what they are called. I only recently started getting into Podcasts and I'm pissed I waited so long. They really help pass the day at work or on long trips.

    I know it was like 14 hours, but the King of Kings series was amazing.

    Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
