For those of us who are spending a lifetime in the seat of a truck, or punching buttons to make balloons or other widgets, what are you listening to?

Here's my list;

Back country hunting- this is pretty self explanatory
Baird country- Jim Baird, a canoe trip/survival/alone contestant interviews people in that kinda space.
Bear Grease- Clay Newcomb is the host, describes it as a "documentary style podcast" covering everything from major poaching cases to coon hounds
Bent offroad- jeep fags, kinda, but sometimes BMWs, or suburbans
Cal's week in review- hunting related stuff. Legislation, news, etc
Dirtbike channel podcast- dirtbikes
Dr History- old west stories
Hard enduro hosers- canadian hard enduro. Been awhile since they did an episode
Hunt hard, talk free- corlanes sporting goods, a northern BC gun store, podcast. Bear attack survivors, local characters, etc
Hunt talk radio- Randy Newburg, talking about hunting.
Jocko- Jocko Willink. War stories, leadership, etc
JRE- Joe Rogan. Interviews with people.
Kifarucast- Hunting, archery, "I used to do steroids," everyone else is a fucking idiot and I'm the smartest.
Legends of the old west- self explanatory. Usually 5 or 6 episodes to cover a person or subject
Live wild- Remi Warren, hunting.
Seek outside podcast- hunting
Shootn the bull- hunting, bison ranching, drinking
SOGcast- stories from SOG veterans, Laos, Cambodia, etc
Spycraft 101- various stories about international intrigue and clandestine operations
Dork-o-motive- weird automotive history
Hunt backcountry- self explanatory
Meateater- interviews with people in the hunting and outdoor industry
TundraTalk- Alaskan outdoors drinking and bullshitting
Valley Rally- Canadians talking about motorcycles
Vortex nation- hunting, shooting, etc.
 
That's a good list.

If you're into weight lifting and health stuff theres The bodybuilding.com podcast and Huberman Lab
 
Several of those are in my rotation and several others I just added.

Change Agents with Andy Stumpf is a good one. He also does "Cleared Hot" which is okay, but Change Agents is better. This might be similar to Spycraft 101. The conversations about the southern border, cartels, China, and sex trafficking are heavy.

Andrew Huberman's "Huberman Lab" is also interesting as hell, but he frequently speaks about shit way over my head.
 
I'm not a consistent podcast listener, week stint on couple weeks off

always end up back to these:
Joe Rogan - interviews blah blah blah
World news with BK - brief headlines around the world + a little bit of commentary by an ex PJ
Snail trail 4x4 - toyota wheeling
Wheeling wine and whiskey - jeep wheeling

Honorable mentions:
Dork-O-motive - Brian Lohnes drag racing history mini documentaries
trailchasers - wheeling
offroad racer - desert racing
the talent tank (discontinued)
Shawn Ryan show - interviews with CIA/SF/hackers/military
 
What's in my rotation, mostly listen to comedy podcasts, it really is the best medium for that. A lot of the comedy ones listed below are extremely NSFW and for sure don't listen to them with your kids in your car unless you are a bad parent:

The Tim Dillon show - hilarious especially the old episodes (recommend starting with the episode named "life in the big city" for your first one)
Are you garbage - also hilarious, quiz comedians to see if they are trash/garbage, lots of 90s nostalgia stuff
Skeptic tank with ari shaffir - funny and also some serious long form type interviews
Part of the problem with Dave Smith - libertarian stuff
Shawn Ryan show depending on the topic/who's on
Wheeling wine and whiskey sometimes
Cum town - discontinued but hilarious
The crab feast - discontinued but the archives are great, hilarious stuff
Conversations with big rich - good for when I'm losing motivation to work on my shit box
Wheel evrey weekend - they only put out like 2 a year if that, but the archives are good
Tim woods show - more libertarian shit
Scott Horton show - listen to this consistently and you will know more about war and world events than 99% of the population
Your welcome with Michael malice - good interviews of random people
 
The Mike Drop - Mike Rutland, former seal interviews some interesting people.

Combat Story - Ryan Fugit, interviews combat vets
 
Coffee with Scott Adams, but you have to listen at 2x speed or it's slice your wrists excruciating.
 
The Mike Drop - Mike Rutland, former seal interviews some interesting people.

If you like hearing people's story, this episode is pretty good.

Kind of a shithead guy, becomes navy seal, can't keep his shit together, kicked out of navy, still can't keep his shit together, joins french foreign legion to attempt to get his life together.

I've also got are you trippin that was supposed to be a travel podcast by ari, but I don't think he's actually gonna do it. He abandoned skeptic tank too, said it was done, which is too bad, it was good.

I can't stand that fucking knob that does wheel everyweekend. He's so damn supercilious.
 
That's a good list.

renaissance periodization with Dr. Mike is BY FAR the best bodybuilding youtube channel....not really a Podcast though.

X2 on the Shawn Ryan Podcast.
 
If you like music and music History

A History of Rock Music in 500 songs

and Cocaine and Rhinestones is a deep dive in a bunch of country music history.


If you haven't heard all of Dan Carlins Hard Core History podcast, you should seek out all of them.
And if you like History and an Italian accent isn't off putting, History on Fire by Daniele Bolelli

Huberman Lab

Know Fear Podcast
 
My wife started me on Hide and Seek season 3. It's an interesting true crime podcast that started good out of the gate but is glacially slow once you get 14 or so episodes in. It's a great premise but drags on too much. I might give season 1 a try, I've heard that's pretty good.
 
if into weight lifting,
*starting strength radio is good sometimes but alot of just repeating itself, just learn the ones to skip.
*weights and plates podcast
*barbell medicine



*Stone cold Steve Austin podcasts from 2015-2018ish are really good - cool ass wrestling stories and hunting camp shenanigans with ted fowler. Also had some interesting guests

*some of the hotboxin with mike tyson ones are entertaining


*also check out "in the red clay" by sean kipe, cool dive into dixie mafia history.

He has some other decent ones digging into cold cases like "in the land of lies"
 
Random thought.

I was listening to a guy talk yesterday how we forget the origins of words.

PODCAST, .... an iPod Broadcast.

Now we have a whole generation of kids who never had an iPod.

And Broadcast. ... distributing particles like seed... an agriculture word that was later applied to radio ...
 
Thanks for the list.

I like History that doesn’t suck and hardcore history.

Then a few political commentators.
 
Been listening to the jaxxon podcast a bit when they have interesting guests.

You be trippin woth ari Schaffer is up and rolling and is good.

Tried Shawn Ryan, can't fuckin stand listening to him.
 
How do you load them to play?

I usually put Dave Ramsey to play off the YouTube but it's full of commercials and is imagine the video eats up my phone data.

I tried Joe Rogaine. Yeah, nope. Almost instantly had me yelling to STFU at him.

We listen to a few Wondery produced shows on road trips, mostly history/science. I'm not on the road as much as I was thankfully.

I narrowed it down to my favorites. I've really enjoyed:

American History Tellers - sometimes history you know, but from a perspective you may not have herd, people that were involved but didn't make the text books, how previous events shaped the history you know, or how that history event played out long term and its impacts on modern times.

American Scandal - Pretty much what the title says, Watergate, Oklahoma City Bombing, Jones Town, Waco, Black Wall Street, Dieselgate, etc. We just finished Hare Krishna, and it was great. I knew about those guys from pop culture, the Beatles, standup comedy acts of the '90s, but didn't know just how massive that movement was, how corrupt they were, or that they still exist. It was really good.

American Innovators - Kind of like History Tellers, it goes in depth and approaches stuff about topics like Coke-a-Cola, the Manhattan Project, Wright Brothers, etc. from an angle that you've probably never thought of, and deep dives into who the competition was and the often cutthroat tactics it took to get the edge to be the product or technology that wins.

Hidden Brain - This is NPR not Wondery, but it makes you think about how and why you think the way you do. What influences you and others and how. Even seemingly benign stuff and really makes you hate advertisers.

Americana the 51st State - Robert Earl Keen Jr. shooting the breeze with other folk, country, and bluegrass artists he's friends with.
 
I have my headphones in all day at work and listen mostly to podcasts with some music when I get bored. My weekly go to podcasts are:

Drinkin' Bros Podcast - Current events and politics with a lot of comedy in between

Real AF with Andy Frisella - Politics and current events with some self help type stuff

Timcast IRL - Politics. I like to here his guests point of view since its usually different than mine

Dale Jr. Download - Nascar. I like the old guys he has on that tell old stories

Door, Bumper, Clear - Review of the last Nascar race from 3 of the drivers spotters.

Snail Trail 4x4 - I don't really listen to wheeling podcasts besides this one. Mainly cause their local to me.

Gun Talk - Everything gun related. Industry news, laws and court cases, guns and gear reviews. They have a few different shows under the Gun Talk Media banner now. I still think the OG radio show with Tom Gresham is the best out of all of them.

The Diesel Podcast - New products, industry news, and info all about diesel pickup trucks new and old.
 
JRE
Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast
Legion of Skanks
Last Podcast on the Left

That's really it. I can't really do shit when I'm listening to a podcast or I won't pay attention and I don't have the attention span to listen to them at home so the only time I really listen to them is when I'm driving so JRE takes up the bulk of that time although he's gotten really stale and repetitive lately. Really only listen now when I'm interested in a particular guest. There's still a lot of them I listen to but I find myself skipping ones I don't care about now.

LPOTL I used to listen to all the damn time, but around 2020 or so they started getting political and it got old fast since they stayed out of politics for years. But for true crime, aliens, conspiracy shit, etc they're still hard to beat on all their old content.
 
The Tim Dillon show - hilarious especially the old episodes (recommend starting with the episode named "life in the big city" for your first one)
Tim reminds me so much of myself that I can't listen to his podcast. It's like listening to myself rant the entire time. :laughing:
