• We Might Be Drunk is the podcast I listen to with the most consistency, and definitely worth a listen. Two of my favorite comedians (Mark Norman & Sam Morrill) who are hilarious while also getting into aspects of day to day life.

    Love recommending podcasts!

    • Like others have said, Behind the Bastards is great to find out about some of the worst people in history.
    • In relation to that Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff is the opposite of Behind the Bastards. It’s about people who did cool stuff who became cool.
    • Also in lieu of that, Bad Gays, it’s about bad gays in history. I think they’ve covered similar folks on BtB, but this is obviously from a queer perspective.
    • Fad Camp and Maintenance Phase are great podcasts about dieting and wellness. Fad Camp is more about how damaging some of these diets can be, whereas Maintenance Phase is similar to You’re Wrong About (which I also recommend)
    • The Weekly Planet are these two Australian guys who talk about movies, tv, comics and video games. They also have a YouTube channel called Me Sunday Movies where they’ll upload some of their podcasts. Like they have a running segment called “Caravan of Garbage” which is just sort of talking about a movie, tv show or game. Currently they’ve started going through the RoboCop movies.
    • Also shameless plug, but Checkpoint is on the radio but they take their radio show and put it on a podcast. It’s a podcast about giving a 1up to diversity in video games. Most of us are from the LGBTQIA+ community and that’s where most of our perspectives come from, but it’s also just folks from any marginalised group. Lovely bunch of folks (if I do say so myself).

    Uh yeah, I have some more, but like that’s politics or it’s writing related or spicyness in or out of the bedroom. But these are the ones I always recc.
