In my old job I did quite a bit of driving. Sometimes I would leave early and drive 2 - 2.5 hours to a job and then have to drive the same back again in the after noon. The truck I was driving was noisy and the radio hardly worked so I started using earphones and my phone to listen to podcasts. Mainly tech stuff at the time but it soon became corrupted with nerdy stuff as well.
Now I work at home on my own and both of my kids are at school so my podcast list has grown and I end up listening to probably 6 or so hours a day! So what am I currently listening to? Well in no particular order....
The Incomparable :- Pop culture nerdy stuff :) Old movie reviews and more. The Incomparable network has quite a few different shows on it now, most of which I listen to.
The Skeptics Guide :- Interesting science news, the stupidity of the ignorant and a few fun games.
Nerdist :- I only listen to the main Nerdist podcast, they have some great famous guests on and end up talking about some unexpected topics with them.
Critical Hit :- A D&D podcast! How nerdy right?! Well it worked out well for me because it has a few hundred back episodes! I listen to it in the back ground, it's like a story unravelling and can be a laugh :)
The Infinite Monkey Cage :- Science panel show hosted by Brian Cox, funny and interesting.
SciFi Diner :- I've only just started listening to this one, so I'll see how it goes.
This Week In Tech :- Part of Leo Laportes empire of Tech shows :) A weekly roundup of everything tech related.
There are others, they come and go as I feel. The other day I realised that the adverts seem to be working as well... I have several products that I have purchased because I have heard about them on podcasts (iFixIt Pro tool set, Castle Panic, Loot Crate....) Luckily I'm happy with them so I can't complain!
Castle Panic score 7 - 2
