I don't listen to podcasts any more, I guess. The Apple app is poop. The Apple sound ecosystem - that decides to drop the audio for 5 seconds every time an alert comes in - is not conducive or supportive of listening along uninterrupted.

And if I hear one more person ramble on for 10 minutes about their personal life, and then say, "So, let's drop right in then, shall we?" I'm gonna shove so many earbuds up their ass they'll pop.

Loved listening to Mark Maron's "WTF", except I couldn't give a shit about his life, and got tired of trying to scrub forward 20 minutes to get to the damn interview, while trying to keep one eye on traffic and not crash into a school bus full of children.

Loved listening to "Things You Missed in History Class" but just kinda petered out on it.

Truly loved "In Our Time". The incredible range of topics, guests, and skill of Melvyn Bragg's technique for eliciting key quotes and ideas from his panel of guests, to move the story forward.

Used to listen to RadioLab, ReplyAll, More Perfect, and The Green Line... but I just can't hear another story about moronic political shit, or listen to another manufactured-emotions tear-jerker as a new broadcasting student tries all the knobs and dials on tear-jerker storytelling tropes, all in one episode.

Nowadays, i write really nasty, angry punk songs on guitar, and stream music on Spotify.
