I have a lot of time at my job where I can do my work with headphones, so I've been into podcasting for about a year and a half, two years. It started with Discovery's Stuff podcasts (Stuff You Should Know, Stuff You Missed in History Class, and Popstuff when it was on). Now I listen to Maximumfun.org stuff as well as RobHasAPodcast stuff and other things as well. Here's a complete list from my phone:
RobHasAPodcast: Rob Cesternino from Survivor Amazon/All Stars podcasts about Survivor, Amazing Race, Big Brother, etc.
Post Show Recaps: Rob's scripted shows recaps. Does shows like Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, Lost Rewatch, etc.
Bullseye with Jesse Thorn: A culture podcast sometimes pop culture and sometimes older culture (he had Richard Linklater talking about Boyhood this week as well as a couple of guys that wrote a book about Richard Pryor).
Jordan Jesse Go: A comedy podcast about pretty much nothing, but it makes me laugh.
My Brother, My Brother, and Me: Three McElroy brothers answer Yahoo questions comedically. Very funny.
Sawbones: Justin McElroy and his wife (a doctor) take a comedic and informative look at a medical topic, it's history, and how we've treated it in the past.
How Did This Get Made?: Paul Scheer, his wife, and Rafi from The League watch bad movies and comment about them.
Judge John Hodgman: John Hodgman (PC Guy vs. Justin Long's Mac in the commercials) takes on disagreements and judges who's wrong/right.
Stuff You Missed in History Class: Thirty to forty-five minute history segments on subjects they research.
Stuff You Should Know: Thirty to forty-five minute segments on various topics they research. Last three: Scientific Method, Online Gambling, Jim Henson.
Freakonomics Radio: The guys from the books take on other subjects. Last week "Why doesn't everyone get the flu vaccine?"
CAGcast: Cheapassgamer.com's take on video game news and new releases. Funny stuff.
Art of Wrestling: I skip through until I see a guy that was a wrestler when I was a kid.
Memory Palace: Five to ten minute segments on various history topics.
I guess those are the main ones.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
