The ones I've been listening to the most are

The Junkies - a radio talk show from DC which is completely hilarious. It's a foursome of guys who are old friends. It sounds like a roundtable of my own homies

The Hollywood Saloon - A very comprehensive look at cinema. The podcasts are long and sometimes they'll have a "master class" episode featuring one director.

Geekdrome - All things geek. Movies, trailers, video games, comics, just fun.

I especially love ESPN Radio's shows because Mike Greenberg, Mike Golic and Colin Cowherd can be quite funny at times.

Mike & Mike is so much better online than when it airs on ESPN Radio and ESPN2 because you don't have the commercial breaks (which seem to be longer and more numerous than a typical TV show) and the sports news updates getting in the way. The 4-hour show usually clocks in at about 120-130 minutes after the excess stuff is removed.

I enjoy Shane R. Monroe's shows:

Retrogaming Radio-covers classic video gaming along with some modern gaming news
DualScreen Radio-Nintendo DS news and game reviews

With this show going back full-time on ESPN2 starting this coming week (thanks to the end of French Open tennis, World Cup soccer and Wimbledon tennis, all of which forced the program back to ESPNews at times), I will likely download the podcast of this show far less and download The Herd with Colin Cowherd regularly.

Well to be fair, I haven't listened consistantly since last December to that podcast. I was concerned at last week's TWiT when he was playing devil's advocate about Net Neutrality because it reminded me of quite a few rants he made last year about "protecting his children" (which is understandable to some degrees, but some of the other things he was complaining about like YouTube and MySpace were a bit off the wall IMHO). So maybe he's improved, I'd love to listen but I find it easier to generally just read his show notes now, plus it's a really long podcast and they come out 2 at a time.

So maybe I was a bit harsh on him, he seems like a great guy anyway, I just think that he seems a bit hypocritical at times between his views on KFI and TWiT, but if he's being more consistant now maybe I'll re-add it to my download list and listen if I have some free time.

I use the program Juice to manage mine instead of itunes.

I'm currently subscribed to: The Signal (a Firefly one)
Catholic Insider
Catholic Rockers
The Round Table
The Bear's Grove Podcast (this and the roundtable are
both about tabletop roleplaying. This one analyzes
things a bit more and talks about mythic
significance of things etc.)
After Serenity (a roleplaying podcast set in the Serenity universe)

Based on things in this thread i have added the open source sex and point of inquiry to check out.

I was going to start a new thread, but I thought that I would bump this instead.

I just got a new video ipod, so can someone give me some suggestions for video podcasts (or vidcasts, or video netcasts, or whatever)? I listed my favorite podcasts earlier in the thread, but I like tech and sports for the most part.

Also, where are some good places on the web for vidcasts? iTunes Canada still doesn't sell TV shows for ipods, AFAIK.

There is Firefly Radio drama called Old Wounds that is pretty good. I think it is episode four or five now but they have all the old episodes also.

Are there any funny customer podcasts (I work in customer service) ... i.e. tech support?

Also how do I burn podcasts onto DVD so I can take them to work and watch on my portable DVD player?

Thanks!

Oh wait do you actually have any podcast? Most have no video on them but some do. Most are just mp3 files. Oh and your dvd player will need to be able to play whatever format the video podcast is in unless you are just using it to play mp3 files.

I have been really digging on the sex is fun podcast (www.greatsexgames.com) It's pretty interesting and informative. Someone on this board also recommended Naughty Sheets which is an audio erotica podcast and is pretty good.

Any other decent erotica casts anyone would recommend? I'm also looking for anything that might have a long continuing storyline like a radio serial. Any recommendations?

I guess this is the best thread for it...
TWiT to end?

Quote:

It's about 80 degrees out - in all likelyhood the last nice day of summer in Northern California - so all the TWiTs decided to play hookey. At the same time. Unfortunately that means there will be no show tonight.

It's my turn to play hookey next week. I'm off on a Geek Cruise next Friday, and will be gone through November 4, so there will be no TWiT next week either.

I'll decide what happens to TWiT, the show, when I come back, but at this point it looks like it's on life support and the heart monitor is flatlining.

Meanwhile, enjoy our first this WEEK in LAW with Denise Howell, and thanks for listening. I'll put it up on the TWiT feed in place of TWiT later tonight.

I saw that too lordwow. My feeling is that since the two biggies (John and Patrick) weren't being paid, they were treating it as a hobby, which pissed Leo off. He was working his ass off getting the servers back up all last week, and I can understand his frustration with them.

I'd like for him to can them in favor of new guests. It would be a shame to lose Dvorak, but hey.

For me, lose Dvorak and I'd start listening to the show again.

Without Dvorak, I'd stop listening altogether. To me, Cranky Geeks is much better than TWIT now, especially when TWIT has Jerry Pournelle. I cannot listen to anything he says.
