Topic: Podcast Reccomendations

Count me among the Tim Russert-Meet the Press appreciators, I was absolutely shocked when the news broke of his sudden passing. I'd been catching the show on iTunes for the better part of the last year, and he did an outstanding job of moderating it.

In fairness to Tom Brokaw, he's only really done one proper edition of Meet the Press since being made interim moderator, and that was on the road at the governors convention rather than in the studio in Washington. He should be given time to hit his stride in filling such big shoes. Also he has one of the most rich and incredible sounding voices I've ever heard, I could listen to it all day.

As for podcast recommendations aside from Meet the Press, mine are as follows:

1up Yours
Retronauts (almost always brilliant when they can manage to put one out, Sharkey and Parish are aural delights)
ESPN Football Today with Jeremy Green - nice for football junkies (and people who love hearing the clip of Denny Green going bananas over and over again)
The Bugle - satirical podcast with John Oliver, good if you like British humour and can take having the UK and US being made fun of merciliessly.

And don't forget Radio Trivia!

Cool, I'll have to check out the football podcast, I've been looking for a good one (currently I listen to Mike n Mike during the season)

I'll give the Bugle a listen too, as I'm a fan of some British humor (the original office).  Speaking of, has anyone checked out Game Theory yet??  These guys can almost give Greg a run for his money.  Its a different breed a video game podcasting w/ more of a high level view of the industry (Next Gen editors).

With the so many different shows out there I thought it'd be helpful to start a thread for some recommendations.  Here's one show I just stumbled across with some potential but I haven't yet seen it.  It appears to be created by some of the same folks from the 1up show and produced by Revision3.  Check it out and post any other shows, gaming or non gaming you'd give a thumbs up to.

Oh, Radio Free Nintendo is pretty cool too.  You can find it on the Google.

Just gotta add one of my favourite podcasts.


http://mysteriousuniverse.org/


Mysterious Universe is a paranormal/science type show, with very high production quality and can be really fun and interesting to listen to. Highly recommended. They have a good free show, and if you like it a lot, you can pay $9 a month to get an extension on the regular show, plus a bonus ep on the weekends.


Check it out!
