Thanks mate. 

[Arniepie]

Dunno if its been mentioned bit ecstasy the battle for rave is a decent listen on BBC sounds

[El Rojo]

Unexplained by Richard MacLean Smith is excellent.

 

Several seasons focusing on unsolved mysteries and strange phenomena.

Conan O'Brien needs a friend is always entertaining

I like an oul podcast while driving to work

 

High on my list at the moment is undr the cosh, the football podcast, which always gives a good, and fun insight into the lives of mainly lower level footballers during their playing days and into retirement. 

 

The other is Tris Dixons boxing life stories. Brilliant series with some of the best boxing guests imaginable 

[Bruce Spanner]

You're wrong about is great.

 

They look at commonly held ideas, stories and beliefs that we accept as true without really questioning and pull them apart.

 

They are both university research professors, or something of the sort.

 

Some are a bit 'trashy', but the serious ones where they really investigate the veracity of the claims are great as they explore fully giving you a completely different picture from the one you'd always believed.

 

Worth a try, scroll down to the earlier ones at the bottom when they were still brimming with ideas.

Politics no.

 

History I don't mind but prefer discussion, not one person just telling stories.

Just on history podcasts, I’d give these an easy 9/10:

 

History on Fire(Roman, Greek, Native American, Spanish conquest of Americas, biographies on Joan of Arc, Caravaggio, Teddy Roosevelt, Jack Johnson as well as female snipers, duelling, and interviews with other history podcasters)

 

Revolutions - English civil war, American revolution, French Revolution, Haitian revolution, Bolivar revolution, Mexican revolution and the Russian one, too.

 

Age of Napoleon- Deep dive into Napoleon and the era that he grew up in, his childhood, education and all the shit that was kicking off that made him.

 

Hardcore History. Free audiobooks on the best topics in history, not a bad episode.

 

You really can’t go wrong with any of the above and a lot of them do different topics; so, if you’re not arsed about Roman Gladiators, you can choose another episode or topic that tickles your fancy.

 

Oh, there is one that I will recommend even though it is political. Do you remember that Canadian mayor who got caught smoking crack on camera 10 years ago? There’s an 8 episode look at him called The Gravy Train, it is outstanding.

I'll give those a try. Thanks.

I've never been a fan of true crime but there are some great true crime podcasts about. I listened to Gangster on BBC, about Paul Massey and Curtis Warren. Then one called Unravel about Lezlie Manukian, a mental con-woman.

Looking for more of the same if anyone has any recommendations.

Full Disclosure is really good. I’m listening to the Wes Streeting one, then going to listen to the Mick Lynch one after. Streeting seems unlike how some paint him.

Yeah I quite like that. James O'Brien has a good interview style but like most it depends on the guest.

Yeah, I think that’s a good way to do it. It brings out the best of the guest.

Yawn let me guess. Statmer's mate Streets is really a real down to earth geezer when you get to know him despite what them nasty lefty cunts say.

 

So transparent, bore off.

It shows a working class person who did well for themselves, you fucking hate those. This is why I respect people like Mick Lynch, because he’s out to help working people, you’re out to shame anybody who comes from nothing and uses their Labour to earn a few quid. You’re the nastiest little cunt on here and a liar, now you’re entering other threads to tell me to ‘bore off’, haven’t you destroyed enough threads on here already? 
 

Like I say, I’d never tire.

You'd never tire of what exactly warrior?

[Gnasher]

How did I guess it'd be a big bucket of whitewash for Streeting from shilly? Note he had to throw in Mick Lynch to balance himself out. Read him like last night's echo, transparent half baked shit.

 

On his new mate Streeting, he's partly responsible for the tory party holding an 80 seat majority and our old age pensioners facing death this winter because they can't feed themselves or heat their homes.

 

This is our working class kid did good Wes just 2 fucking months before Labour were facing a general election..

 

Sorry but i will never forgive those cunts.

Go on sunshine I'll meet you I'm in Liverpool in two weeks time. Don't bottle out.

Yeah you're still a cowardly little cunt. Now do yourself a favour and fuck off.

Apologies to the people that want to use this Podcast thread for podcasts, I made the mistake of saying which podcast I listened to and it’s not Gnasher approved. This thread is now going to be spammed with Twitter links. That’s on me.

Instead of spending time and trouble searching and posting old posts why not answer my question. What do you mean by you're 'I'd never tire' comment?  I ignored it the first time but you've repeated it again. Very strange.
