Shebeen Posted January 29, 2015 Share just finished serial - thoroughly enjoyed recent podcast subscriptions are criminal and strangers I was actually quite disappointed. Set quite a high expectation in the early episodes, but just really faded out....got to the final one, and......that's it?? Sounds like season 2 is happening, just hope they get a more interesting case and less...duh, that was so long ago i can't remember. in other news, nik rabinowitz' week that wasn't is quite cool - available on 702/567 download page http://www.702.co.za/podcast/podcasts.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the beginning i was expecting a conclusion...but as it went on I realised it wasn't going to happen On the whole though, I was really impressed with the narrative and the presentation of facts. A very professional and captivating series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted December 3, 2015 Share NPR's Pop Culture Happy hour had an excellent interview with Trevor Noah the other idea. really inciteful and captivating. He is not a dummy. Well worth a listen http://www.npr.org/sections/monkeysee/2015/11/27/457375043/pop-culture-happy-hour-a-conversation-with-trevor-noah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted December 3, 2015 Share Another good one I have just started is Hardcore History - busy with the series title "the wrath of Khan" Not sure If I mentioned Criminal previously which is also excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAGecko Posted December 3, 2015 Share Another good one I have just started is Hardcore History - busy with the series title "the wrath of Khan" Not sure If I mentioned Criminal previously which is also excellent You will enjoy the series - Hardcore History. I was an avid podcast fan and listened to them in the car on my long journeys around SA. But I have since discovered the joys of audiobooks, which keep me more entertained on long trips. A wonderful source for audiobooks: http://audiobookbay.cc/ . It is a torrent site, but I use it to vet a book, or series of books, before I order them from iTunes or Amazon.

Stretch Posted May 26, 2016 Share discovered another great podcast. Beautiful stories from Anonymous people http://www.earwolf.com/show/beautiful-anonymous/ "1 phone call. 1 hour. No names. No holds barred. That’s the premise behind Beautiful Stories from Anonymous People, hosted by comedian Chris Gethard (the Chris Gethard Show, Broad City, This American Life, and one of Time Out’s “10 best comedians of 2015”). Every week, Chris opens the phone line to one anonymous caller, and he can’t hang up first, no matter what. From shocking confessions and family secrets to philosophical discussions and shameless self-promotion, anything can and will happen!

Will give ep2 a go in the morning on the way to work.The guy that hosts is really good at engaging the people that phone in and controlling the follow of the conversation while still letting them say what they want to say. I have done three episodes now and they all all been different and interesting Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk RocknRolla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been looking into the Host Chris Gethard, his other work is really not my scene, but these phone calls are very interesting.It's kinda voyeurism, where you can listen to a slither of other people's lives. But like you say, he really knows how to get the little bit of extra from the callers. On Ep 7 at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
