Podcasts: cycling or otherwise

[chasea]

Speed Metal Cycling (okokok, my boss's podcast)
The Champs with Neal Brennan and Moshe Kasher
Smartest Man in the World (Greg Proops. If you're into improved rants about alcohol, Baseball, Blacksploitation movies, and progressive politics, this one can be fun)
The Dana Gould Hour (more like 3 hours)
WFMU's The Best Show is moving to Podcast. That should be pretty cool.

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Jack Thurston's The Bike Show...

Podcast | The Bike Show - a cycling radio show and podcast from Resonance FM

Jen Kirkman: "I Seem Fun"
Judge John Hodgman

Back episodes of the Pod F Tompcast if still available.

I listen to The Amp Hour every week along with the Embedded podcast. Both are excellent for people into electronics and tech talk.

I also enjoy Still Untitled:The Adam Savage Project and Creature Geek.

I am +1'ing We're Alive. I really liked it.

I know Serial is the darling podcast of the day and I like it but I don't get why its such a big deal. I would listen to a lot of the aforementioned stuff before it.

I almost me mentioned the Amp Hour but then figured no one would care. Good stuff.

+2. It's a little campy in terms of the voice acting at times but it was nice.

The recent interview with Bil Herd was awesome. They get a lot of really great guests on that show.

The Nerdist has been mentioned too. I only listen to the ones with guests I wan to hear. The show ranges from great to I can only take a minute and a half.

Thanks for the tip on Dana Gould. I like his stuff. I've seen him live a couple of times, including a one man show he did in SF twenty or so years ago, which was simultaneously gut wrenchingly painful in its honesty and very funny.

Jen Kirkman's sister was a high school pal of mine.

I'm about 30 episodes behind. No spoilers ;)

I was a completist for a while but lately I'm the same. Hostfuls and good guests.

To add to the "or otherwise" section

Stuff You Should Know - This is my favorite one lately, educational, entertaining and the hosts are funny in an innocent goofy sort of way.

What are some other science/educational podcasts anyone is listening to?

Also- This is an excellent place to discover new podcasts and stream everything with ease : Podbay.fm - Stream any podcast in the universe quickly and easily.

I'm really into:
Planet Money, Freakenomics 99% invisible and the TrainerRoad podcast

Anyone got a new dad podcast that can recommend?

[rec head]

popandmod - looks like I'm going to have to try 99% invisible because I really like your other suggestions.

I'm a huge fan of the Tony Kornheiser Show. It used to be a radio program in the Washington DC area and is ostensibly a sports show but it's humorous on a number of other topics as well. Now it's a podcast only program and is free of radio constraints though they still do advertising. It's way better advertising than radio ads and much less intrusive to the flow of the show.

He's an ESPN on-air guy as part of the PTI show and has a claim of infamy regarding some unfortunate comments he made about cyclists in the DC area. I think he's made amends and listening to his podcasts and broadcasts it's clear it wasn't the first time he said something he later regretted. But he owns his mistakes and he's a bright and articulate guy, as are his regular cast members and guests.

Rated 10/10.

So I can't say exactly why I like the Trainer Road podcast as much as I do. I have been on the trainer a lot for me this winter but I am not counting every watt and usually don't do more than 40 minutes indoors. I guess it is the mix of bikes, training, science and nutrition.

Is anybody listening to any good podcasts about general health, nutrition or fitness? Bike related or not is fine. In these cold months listening and reading to things about being healthy helps keep me going. I have been searching and so far haven't found any that I am really into.

Thanks

Rec I like a couple dietary/lifestyle based podcasts but my interest in them was first out of desperation with declining health due to Crohn's disease -

I like two that are paleo centered, but there is much more to take from them with all of the guests ranging from doctors to professors to athletes

Fat Burning Man with Able James
the Paleo Solution with Robb Wolf

I do like Ben Shapiro also, but I am not very heavily versed in political issues so this is more of an educational show for me at this point.

I enjoy Vinnie Tortorich's Fitness Confidential. Seems like a pretty straight up guy who used to be a competitive endurance cyclist before he torched his shoulder. He's just now getting into mountain biking again after shoulder surgery. It's heavily diet and food related (No Sugars, No Grains is his thing), which stems from his bout with Leukemia.

CyclingTips has a podcast now, and I usually enjoy the RKP/Paceline Podcast - good mix of advocacy, gear and racing talk.
