I’m wondering how many of you out there listen to podcasts.
If you l answered yes, reply with your favorite kind of podcast.
If you answered no, reply with why not.
Also, if you don’t mind could you guys echo this? I don’t usually ask for an echo but I’m super curious about this one.

I get that. Some podcasts I listen to every episode religiously. Others I listen to when they talk about something I like.

I listen to mostly true crime podcasts too. Strange and Unexplained with Daisy Eagan is pretty good but not true crime.

Same. Pretty sure I listen to True Crime Obsessed and I Think Not the most.

I can understand that. A lot of people like a visual.

That’s interesting. I can only think of one podcast that has transcripts available. I haven’t listened for a while but Truth and Justice with Bob Ruff always had transcripts.
He works wrongful conviction cases so the inmates he’s working with typically can’t listen to podcasts.

You might like A Paranormal Chicks.
They do true crime cases and paranormal stories.
Fair warning they do get a little raunchy sometimes.

@gatorskinsoul : I listen to podcasts a lot . I use phone's bluetooth connection to my hearing aids. Sound blocks my tinnitus. Favorites are #SistersInLaw , Now&Then, Jack, Stay Tuned with Preet, Ukraine: The Latest, Cleanup on Aisle 45, NewYorker Radio Hour, NPR Politics, TodayExplained, TheDaily...

I listen to Cup of Justice, True Sunlight (formerly Murdaugh Murders), and MeidasTouch. I'm more of a visual learner so just listening can be hard for me.

Just not my thing. I'm also hard of hearing so that might have something to do with it. I'm more a visual person.

I'm fond of Welcome to Nightvale and the Magnus Archives. I also love the No Sleep Podcast, and recently I've been super into Scared to Death. They're great to listen to when I'm working because sometimes they give me ideas and sometimes I learn something new ^^

I’m like listening to the Ologies podcast while on the torch. Alie, the host, is super funny & engaging with great guests & interesting content that feeds my brain.

Sometimes I read transcripts of podcasts (and/or Youtube videos). Like Skepchick. https://skepchick.org/ Never seen one of those videos, but I read the #transcripts frequently.

I like the story podcasts. Not really into the interview show style podcasts at all.

I can read faster than I listen, and I'm usually in places where I can read, but not listen.

Podcast topics I like (examples): Footy/Soccer (Men in Blazers, Talk Timbers); historical/paranormal (Astonishing Legends, Midnight Library); fiction (Tanis, Rabbits, Black Tapes); old timey radio-style (Decoder Ring Theater); RadioLab. Always looking for other suggestions in these genres!

Haha, I thought I was the only one in the world that dislikes listening to people speak (or lecture) - especially network announcers, talk shows, etc.

I like paranormal stuff.
Haunted Objects
UFO Chronicles
The UFO Rabbit Hole
FUN FACT: I was interviewed on one of them. 😎

I listen on dog walks and to most listed here but one that I live is ‘Too Much Information’ the dive into different shiws, movies, songs etc - they are two funny guys. Also my friend suggested ‘My Dad Wrote A Porno’ it was very funny but too graphic for me… what a prude !!

Theres too much noise and too many things that need my attention. So I don't listen to any. I also don't really watch tv for the same reason.

Sometimes interesting science-y ones like Ologies.
Sometimes comedy like CBC’s The Debaters.
Sometimes weird/interesting fiction ones like Rabbits or Tanis or Escaping Denver. Used to love listening to Coast to Coast with Art Bell on the radio.
Or I’m just too important and busy to listen :)

I’ll have to check that science podcast out.
I had no idea I would get so many responses.
So I hope anyone reading through the replies finds something new they’ll like!

I used to listen to NPR fresh air regularly, then Covid happened and WFH became a thing 😀
Still listen occasionally, most recent being FreakonomicsMD which is awesome (on hiatus right now)

Maintenance Phase, If Books Could Kill, Wiser than Me, Pardon the Insurrection, NPR Up First, Food Heaven, Aggressive Salad, Radio Headspace and History Obscura are my other mains.

Listen to lots of podcasts (it's my world since I'm a podcaster). I listen to podcasts about podcasting, some true crime, some skepticism, some storytelling.
My show is What Was That Like - conversations with regular people about something bizarre that they experienced.

Favorite right now is “The Colin McEnroe Show” which is just the podcast version of CT public radio show. I am no longer local, so it’s been great. Always an eclectic mix of crazy cultural stuff; The classics, to science stuff, current movies, odd historical stuff to We take your calls.

So many! Including...
Comedy (e.g. Bananas)
History (You're Dead to Me, Noble Blood)
True Crime (My Favorite Murder, Criminal)
Spooky Fiction (Scare You To Sleep) & 'Non-Fiction' (Spooked, Radio Rental)
Interviews (WTF, Adam Buxton)
Music (Disgraceland, No Dogs in Space)

No-I do other things instead including listening to audiobooks and NPR. No bandwidth left for podcasts!

I don't listen very often due to time constraints. When I have time, I usually listen to music or watch YouTube. I have listened to all of American Psyop from Medias Touch (I recommend) and a few episodes each of Smartless (Jason Bateman) Now and Then (Heather Cox Richardson).

No, I don't have the patience to listen. Even the TV is usually just background while I do my research, with the exception of just a few favorite programs. I need to be able to run things through my mind while I research, and podcasts need the listener to focus on them...
