[Stretch]

... One year later...

 

Okay Im just about to start "My dad wrote a porno" Podcast. Are there any others that people have listened too lately that they would reccomend?

I listened to the first season.. Laughed my arse off and then got annoyed with it and never finished it Edited May 22, 2019 by Stretch

I enjoy Sam Harris's Making Sense podcast and for comic relief I listen to Bill Burr's Monday Morning podcast. Also like Joe Rogan, but at the pace that he turns them out I tend to be selective about which ones I listen to.

BBC the documentary

Go! stories

Flintoff savage and the ping pong guy

cricket sadist hour

 

 

 

currently spinning on my selection:

diverge (SA mtb)

cycling podcast with Rapha

[Beard]

Great suggestions, Ill give them all a go. I listen while I work on mindless stuff sometimes so I go through them rather quickly!

[Stretch]

Reply all is also an excellent podcast

NEWS24 being rather sneaky here...adding information that is already in the first 2 episodes with some drips of inside info.

 

OVVIOUS they know big fertilizer is about the hit the airconditioning.

 

next episode drops thursday, probably the biggest podcast episode in SA history (or, as I expect if Jimmy remains anonymous and the final 4th episode is the clanger).

I'm totally captivated by this podcast. He's done a real good job with it.

 

The real sad thing is that there are similar examples of the teacher being referenced throughout schools in South Africa

I've been binging on 'How I Built This, by Guy Raz' for the last few months now.  Listened to all of them.  I really enjoy them, plus they fit into my daily solo cycling schedule quite nicely 

 

Its all about the people who started various companies, their stories about how and why they got to where they did, mistakes they've made along the way and essentially how everything went down.  He's had some really big companies on there (Dyson, Jet Blue, Shopify, Belkin, Spotify, SquareSpace, Compaq, Canva, etc.  Plus loads that I've never heard of.  
It's not at all 'businessy' though and always feels very personable and relate-able.  Very often makes the gears in my head turn.  And some of the stories are fascinating!

I really enjoy it and highly recommend it.

BOOM!

 

it dropped yesterday.

Was quite hectic driving home, and well i wasnt expecting the big reveal just yet.

I'm not entirely sure I like the way the case has been presented, the way it jumps around and the amount of filler information that is brought in that doesn't really add much when there is so much dirt clearly waiting. That might be due to it being a legal minefield, and will reserve judgement till next week.

having been laughing out loud in traffic since I took up the suggestion and started listening to "My Dad wrote a Porno"

 

only around 4 episodes in. Hope it stays fresh though, has the potential to get very repetitive.

It does get repetitive... But I had a good laugh for the first season... There's a village here in Ireland called the horse and jockey and there's a big sign for it on the main road to Dublin.. always makes me laugh when I go past it

for some frivolous fun, listen to swiped out club - they are on iTunes as well. about the world of dating from a male and female perspective, good laugh.

Newish podcast that looks promising... Cautionary tales

['Dale]

Enjoying "Tangentially Speaking"

[deanbean]

Mike Rowe's "The way I heard it" is excellent. Try to work out who or what he is talking about before the end. All between 5&7 min long.
