Are there any podcasts you listen to?

LRB podcast

A man of literature!

 

[Corpsey]

I don't listen to so much now I'm not commuting anywhere. Often I get a backlog of episodes and it becomes a chore to get through them.

Luckily Rogan has absolutely lost it in the past year, especially since he moved to Texas. He just goes on about Covid 19 not really being dangerous and how terrible LA is.

I would rather read someone's thoughts than listen to them.

Part of the reason I struggled at school, besides low iq, was having to listen to someone drone on. I can't do it. I need to read.

 

[Corpsey]

I really struggle with audiobooks unless I'm reading along with them. But podcasts I can listen to all day, if it's a conversation between two or more people.

Talking about podcasts, like talking about wanking or poetry or dreams or Bitcoin, is best avoided I agree.

And yet, here we are.

yep, these have been the only topics on dissensus for months now

Only topics I'm interested in.

Here is a podcast by poet Jeremy Reed in which he recalls his relationship with Coil and especially John Balance:

“Balance and Sleazy” from “Bandit Poet” by Jeremy Reed - ZAGAVA

“Bandit Poet” by Jeremy Reed is an outrageously controversial memoir, about his life in London from the early eighties, which celebrates the brilliant losers and a life lived on the edge of the edge. Called by the Independent ‘British poetry’s glam spangly shape-shifting answer to David Bowie’...

It is very good and includes references to both dreams and wanking but alas not cryptocurrency.

There is also an episode on Derek Jarman which I haven't checked yet.

It was a recommendation from Mark, formerly of the OKOK Society who some will be familiar with.

Not to everyone’s literary tastes I’m sure but I am very fond of the Backlisted podcast

I've written about some radical history podcasts that I like here:

Radical History Podcasts

The proliferation of podcasts in recent years is an interesting trend that probably tells us something about the eagerness of radicals (and ...

A lad a couple of years below me at school coined the word "podcast"

Has anyone here ever coined a word that went into common usage?

Last one I listened to was a Dean Macey fishing podcast on the Guru Fishing youtube channel. Most of it is about his athletics. He's a bit of a plonker. I also listen to Chris Watson.

 

[mind_philip]

The Relentless Picnic. The current season on Thoreau/the Unabomber/lockdown is a bit of a stretch, but the early episodes once they got Trump out of their system are incredible. My favorite episode.

Don & Dan's Toxic Masculinity Podcast

 

[versh]

Don Frye's voice is absurd.

 

[craner]

We need to kill podcasts before they kill art.

might be worth it for people with a lot of time on their hands
