I’ve been mostly listening to we hate movies, retronauts and I don’t even have a television. also worst best sellers and our opinions are correct less frequently. what’s good out there

a goon project you say

anyway i know it's cool to hate on podcasts and podcasting these days but tbh idgi because they provide me with a bunch of free entertainment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

it does require searching through the cruft, though. i'm not a big fan of "here's three very online guys preaching to the choir about a fan topic and/or politics" and i absolutely do not listen to tech podcasts because they're almost all uniformly smug and terrible and i can't stand it

i've been listening to a lot of fiction podcasts, lately, and there are a few good ones. bbc puts out several, there's one that does a take on lovecraft i enjoyed. currently listening to tomorrow's monsters, which is corp-backed so maybe against the spirit, but i don't care. the wayward guide for the untrained eye was a silly, light-hearted investigation-themed podcast into the corruption of a small town. i thought it was really polished.

i listen to cooking issues for stuff about food but the host while very intelligent is pretty overbearing and kind of verbally abusive sometimes so it's not something i listen to a lot (side note: there are shockingly few actually good food podcasts out there which i find extremely surprising to be honest).

when podcasting really first took off i listened to a couple of crime podcasts but i quickly soured on them. the world is lovely enough as it is i have no further interest in spending time listening to gruesome stories of death and murder.

two good podcasts I hightly recommend are General Intellect Unit (cybernetic marxists talk about cybersyn and stuff) and Art of the Score (australian composers breaking down movie scores) though they don't update all that frequently

Same, I like to use the autoplay feature which forces me to manually change what I am listening to every 2 videos since youtube automatically selected reactionary garbage.

when i’m in the mood to see an rear end in a top hat just mercilessly mock someone i read the pos

unpopular opinion i guess but i am definitely not into gervais any more. i realized one day his whole schtick is just being a dick. often not even funny dick just “i am famous now and thus don’t need to adhere to the social niceties that lubricate society.” with respect to that show i’m not sure pilkington is exactly nice either but.

he’s probably totally nice in person, i just don’t care for that sort of persona.

in case anybody wants some electrical engineering/embedded podcasts, I like:

- the amp hour
- the macrofab engineering podcast
- embedded.fm

also I like the soft skills engineering podcast, and "advent of computing" which is all about computer history

as podcasts of last resort I also listen to cpp.chat and cppcast, even though I hate C++ and avoid it where possible
