I only like podcasts for long drives home. For example, when I visit MHK, I'm fist pumping my ass off to hype music. On the way home (usually hungover) put on a 7 hour podcast that is going to last the whole drive from MHK -------> Den. Would be my only use of them tbh.

Yes. I very rarely listen to podcasts anymore, as I find I don't have huge stretches of time to kill while doing boring tasks like I used to. Part of it is not having long drives to kill time. Podcasts are great for that. Even though I used to dip into the podcast well fairly often, I still feel a bit overwhelmed and the sheer breadth of content out there. Plus, unless you have a pretty bulletproof recommendation, podcasts can be big time commitments, and in aggregate most are lame af.

Prophets of Doom is a great one parter to get started instead of the multi pod series like most.

I used to listen to Hardcore History and whatever his current events one was. Common Sense, I believe. Is he still making content? Seems like he slowed wayyyy down a few years ago.

I really like common sense. The last two are from October and January though. He rarely does it

I'm sure you've listened to the episode, but the one about "The Rube" is fantastic.

I really liked his WW1 series and Ghosts of the Ostfront. The Japan series just seems rambling and unfocused.

Yeah.

I wondered if it was because I don’t know a lot of that history very well.

Most of the others I know fairly well and so Carlin is great because he finds such great stories and details for deeper insight.

I didn't find Japan to be rambling. I mean the first episode maybe but from then onwards it's just chronological

Yes, that was awesome.  I also enjoyed the Newspaper Strike a great deal.

So they are basically just books but instead it's people talking?

I enjoy listening to history podcasts when I fall asleep. The Dan Carlin Japan one is pretty good.

Anyone know of a podcast in which they discuss the types of people who do and don't listen to podcasts?

No, but it sounds like a fantastic new business opportunity/angle for _33 to find his niche in the podcast game.

i really like the wyman history podcasts, but they frustrate me because i have the sense that there's a big library of old ones that aren't publicly available and it pisses me off.

The only time i've ever been able to listen to podcasts was when I was traveling for work. Mostly listened in the car as on planes, I prefer jams. I'm barely in the car more than 10 min now, so I haven't listened to any in forever. I can't listen to someone talk while I do stuff so that really limits my options.
