I find my podcast playlist gets unmanageable when I start listening to an audiobook (in this case Persepolis Rising) and I have to start deleting some episodes.
What are some podcasts that you would never skip episodes of, and which shows are you happy to pick and choose?
@matigo hahaha, that’s as long as a normal work week.
I haven’t heard of any of those podcasts and I’m going to go add them to my list now - and adding even more stuff to my playlist 😝
@vishae I never miss Stay Tuned with Preet and Mac Power Users. Right now, I’m loving Slow Burn and Still Processing.
@vishae I’m in the same boat. My podcast backlog hasn’t recovered from my last audiobook. Still trying to figure out the answers to your question.
@matigo I was about to start typing out my list of podcasts, when I remember I’ve already done so. My memories are shocking.
@vishae At this point, ATP and Upgrade are the two podcasts I never skip. I have quite a few more than I listen to nearly every episode, and then an even bigger number of shows into which I just occasionally dip. Audio books definitely influence how many podcasts I get through each week, though, as I read a lot.
@vishae I wrote a post a while ago about my podcast listening habits. It needs to be updated. The one podcast I almost always drop everything for, though is still the memory palace
@Lioncourt sometimes I feel that because podcasts can be very time-sensitive, I need to listen to those first and let my audiobook listening lapse. But I’m also thinking, if an episode loses importance that quickly, I might not need to listen to it anyway?
But I agree, ATP is a must listen for me.
@matigo yeah, why aren’t there more musical podcasts?
I’m putting Steal the Stars on my list.
Btw, Playing for Keeps is a pretty interesting superhero podcast/audiobook.
@eli ooh, fellow Siracusa fan club!
I also added Do Go On, because it’ll be good to have some Melbourne/Australian podcasts added to my list.
.@vishae Have to admit I don't miss any of the Relay FM that I about subscribed to, including the Pen Addict, Clockwise, Connected, Cortex, Manpower User, Playing for Fun, Reconcilable Differences, Top 4, Ungenius and Upgrade. I listen to my Audible book for 30 minutes before I go to bed.
@klandwehr oh I did that for a while too, but then I got too much Myke in my ears and I had to start culling some episodes
@vishae yeah, so far that is not a problem and i always put a couple non Myke podcasts in between Myke
@vishae Do Go On! So good! I listen to a lot of the stuff put out by the Planet Broadcasting podcast network, which is all based in Australia (I think Melbourne specifically, but I'm not 100% on that detail). Also! Your episode of was great! Thanks for sharing! //cc @macgenie
@vishae I never skip Random Trek with @blankbaby. It's my favorite pop culture podcast. I do love ATP (I have 3 of their t-shirts, more than any other thing I'm a fan of) but I don't always have time for long podcasts anymore. Core Intuition is especially interesting to me now that I work with Manton, so it's a way to catch up with him. 😂
