I don't know about AM but I love KLCC FM on Sunday mornings...classical guitar...roots folk music...celtic and irish music ..then Click and Clack...the car guys from Boston do a call in show that's hilarious and I love....I understand one of the brothers died recently but I listened to their podcast whenever I got a chance....learned a lot about auto repair and troubleshooting auto problems..
 
None thanks. I’ll pollute my mind and distort my opinions through other methods......though the end result is usually
the same.....

I totally get this. However, I think both of you would really enjoy Hardcore History. They are extremely well done and in-depth. I love the WWI series and the series on the Mongols best. Dan Carlin (host) spends upwards of six months researching and producing each series. With the WWI pod there are 5 episodes each about 4 hours long.

All series aren’t equal, but I haven’t found any duds either. They aren’t political but Dan does often try to find parallels between different historical events and often talks about motivations and conflicts in historical records. He was a jouranalist for decades but his hobby was history.

Anyways, if you have a long drive or a voyage, download a series and give it a try.
 
Joe Rogan is okay when he has an interesting guest.

Agreed, but I’m tired of how most of his guests are comedians and they end up just talking about being a comedian. But when he has a neuroscientist or Egyptologist, or some astrophysicist I love it. I now only listen to maybe 1/20 episodes.

My wife does a ton of Pod casts, History is her favorite. It doesn't work well for me listening to someone else present at their speed. I read quite fast, until my mind wants to take a moment to contemplate the presentation at hand. Reading, this is no problem, I can go as fast or slow as the subject will take me.
If the Podcast is not all that interesting, way way too slow. If the Podcast is good it is usually still too slow most of the time, but when I take the scenic route, I get lost as to where to pick up when I stopped hearing the babble. Perhaps we need better tools to listen with, tuned to the user by the user.

I'm this way as well. My wife suggested podcasts and audiobooks for the drive, but it just doesn't fit my learning style. :dunno:

If he has funny comedians like Stanhope on it's okay, but a lot of the time they aren't that interesting. I don't have any interest in the MMA stuff/people either.

Wanted to check out Uncivil. That host also did Heavens Gate. Is it good?
 
I've heard Cumtown is good, but I haven't listened to it.

There are speed controls on most podcast apps; I listen at 1.5x most of the time.

Click and Clack the car guys from Boston...it's about cars..people call in and describe some problem and they humorously give them advice...sometimes advice is get a real car...if you like canned soup you picked the right one...https://www.cartalk.com/
 
I have been a guest a ton on other peoples podcasts, but I need to start my own.
I think my first topic would be learning how to deal day to day with subterranean dwelling virgins who think they experts on EVERY topic imaginable.

Preet Bharara was United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 2009 to 2017 until he was fired by Trump.

He started up a once a week podcast interviewing some extremely interesting guests. This week was Sherrilyn Ifill, the President of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. Fascinating interview that even broached the concept of AI and the ethical issues regarding bias in their systems and how to approach those ethical issues.

Three weeks ago was an interview of Bill Browder, a billionaire on the top of Putin’s hit list.

The week before that was Ronan Farrow.

I highly recommend a listen. The Browder episode was my favorite.
