Some of my favourites:
Double Feature Show: Two guys watch two movies each week, and then talk about them, what they felt was interesting, notable, etc. 3-4 years running. About 45 mins /episode.
Skeptoid: Huge archive on all topics science and skepticism. Excellently researched and presented. 10-15 mins/episode.
The Comedy Button: 5 guys formerly of Gamespy Debriefings podcast spend an hour each week recording random conversations, reading email they got, just casual chatting. They also have so far made 4 commentaries that can be played along with the movies. I'd highly recommend listening to their commentary of Home Alone 2, a personal favourite of mine as far as commentaries go, think Rifftrax without a script, and a few too many beers. Their Turtles 2: Secret of the Ooze is also a good one. 60-ish mins/episode.
Now seriously Ash!? I'm trying to have a frickin life o'er here! C'me on!
Sigh...I'll be back in a couple days.
Joe is an old buddy of mine, and yeah, I love Joey Diaz and Ari, but I tend to go to his episodes with ACTUAL guests first.
I've been listening to a lot of the Nerdist Podcast recently and I count myself a fan. Some great guests and I'm always delightfully surprised at how nice and cool the guests are, from the obvious ones like Nathan Fillion and Marh Hamil to Zachery Levi and Michael Rooker.
I listen to a podcast called "Science... sort of" when they update, which is not always a set time.
Just because I am a science person and I liked their Jurassic park commentary.
and also polycast, a Civilization (the game) related podcast every so often.
besides that, I've just never been able to find one I listen to with great regularity, or kept listening to.
Just started listening to the Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith. It's good, and I love the range of guests, but his questions annoy me a little. Most of his questions seem to be fishing for IMDb trivia. His interview with the writers of Wreck-It Ralph was little more than him pressuring them for details about how early drafts were different. Now, I love that sort of stuff, but when your podcast professes to be about the art of storytelling, you should be trying a little harder. That said, it's a good listen.
I'm also getting back into Filmspotting. I took a break from them for a while. Not sure why, but I just needed some time away. I've been listening for coming up on six years now, so I dunno. Anyway, they're in top form as usual. New host Josh Larsen is no Matty Robinson, but he'll do in a pinch. Far more entertaining is their spinoff podcast, Filmspotting SVU (Streaming Video Unit), which talks exclusively about movies that are available on various VOD services like On Demand and Netflix. The hosts are Matt Singer and Allison Willmore, two of my favorite critics, and they've got great chemistry. Their banter is reminiscent of Adam and Matty of Filmspotting Prime in their glory days. Also, their show's premise frees them up a lot when it comes to movie selection, and it's easier to watch along with them.
Search for Marc Fennell - that movie guy. 2 minute movie reviews - sharp, witty, also heard on local radio here.
Roderick on the Line is one of the best things in the universe.
I can't get no love. ![]()
Here's what I listen to while waiting for DiF:
Slashfilmcast
The B-Movies Podcast
Nerdist Podcast
How Did This Get Made?
The Mind Robbers (although, I may be dropping it soon. The hosts are sometimes mean, egotistical and lacking in crucial knowledge about their given subjects)
Potentialcast and Redemptioncast
Fatman On Batman, Smodcast and Hollywood Babble-On
I've really gotten into Startup. The first episode is stunning. Check it out at hear startup.com
I recently discovered "Film Sack" which reminds me a bit of WAYDM without the full length commentaries, but a review. They occasionally do full length commentaries, but it is not standard. Their content is largely based upon B films, or films that have not been positively received, or odd ball opinions on popular films. Rather fun in my opinion.
Still experimenting with other podcasts but Film Sack is the only "go to" one for films beyond FIYH. Been enjoying a lot sports and political podcast/radio too.
I started We Have Concerns on Dorkman's recommendation and it's already one of my faves.
Also been listening to Comedy Bang Bang and Fighting In The War Room.
