Basically what it says on the tin. What speech radio/podcasts and similar are you listening to? Recommendations with links! |

At the moment, I'm listening to "the Lovecraft investigations" on the BBC. (Here: bbc.co.uk ) It's HP Lovecraft meets Serial and updated for the 21st century. Its very good! |

(I seem to have accidentally duplicated this thread. Please use this one and I'll ask Fetch nicely to delete the other).

i sometimes splurge on true crime podcasts but they soon get very formulaic and have about 30% too many episodes.

In that case fetch, you can delete this thread. It's a bit odd though that that thread didn't appear in the list when I searched for "podcast" in the search bar ("find threads") |

I've about 20 or so on the go (about 30 if you include probably-defunct ones): a handful of favourites are: * Boars, Gore & Swords - used to be a Game Of Thrones podcast, now more about sci-fi and fantasy TV in general: * Welcome To Night Vale - has it's own Fetch thread already: community radio from a desert town where all the conspiracy theories (not involving elections) are actually true: * Our Plague Year: from the co-writer of WtNV, an occasional set of voicemails and reflections on the pandemic and how individuals are (not) coping; * Guardian Politics Weekly - does what it says on the tin: one of the few Graun podcasts that hasn't folded; * How's Work?: two colleagues talk about their work lives with a psychotherapist (different pair every week). Much less lame than it sounds. |

Interesting. I've been listening to meet David Sedaris on catch up. And the new series of John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme. Its a bit different to the previous ones due to lockdown, but still managed to crowbar in a "since you asked me..." |

I like JF a lot- but I ditched the BBC Comedy of the Week podcast (not the Friday one) a year or two back because of just how piss-poor the average/median standard of the sitcoms were...
