Flying-Chip posted:The Earwolf Challenge is probably the dullest podcast I've ever listened to. A lovely concept with an apathetic host who makes me want to kill myself. Whoa! Are you me!? In the past couple of days I tried to get through The Earwolf Challenge and it was the most dull, laborious, hypocritical thing I've heard. I like Matt Besser and all, but he seems super bored and says the stupidest poo poo regarding the shows. I don't blame him, because what the gently caress does he know about a podcast? Pardo was at least honest and genuine and tried to keep it funny. It's a bummer because I think the "Earwolf Empire" is getting a bit full of themselves. I blame Jeff. Meanwhile, shows like The Podcast Eating Contest are just doing whatever they want regardless of who likes it or not, which is how it should be done, instead of trying to shoehorn your show into a format that Earwolf deems acceptable.

I feel like the Earwolf Challenge is like American Idol except the judges only got to hear ten seconds of each song but "you could completely decide which 10 seconds" so they can judge them super-harshly. Jeff went off in the earwolf forums that it's ridiculous to expect the judges to listen to all the podcasts, but honestly, that means that the challenge is a loving stupid idea.

Podcasts seem closer to late night talk shows then anything else - it's about the personalities more than the jokes, and they grow on you over time. So listening to short clips of podcasts is not at all satisfying. And maybe it was just the episode I listened to, but the condescension was really hard to take.

Adam and Joe if the BBC still has them up, The Bugle if you don't mind news in your comedy, and, uh... that's it. e: oh, and Collings and Herrin before they had their falling out, Herring's solo podcast As It Occurs to Me is... interesting. Worth a punt anyway (it's free). You could try Robin Ince's Utter Shambles (with Josie Long), but it made me want to strangle them both.

TOFOP with Will Anderson and Charlie Clausen is really good (Australian). Kind of similar to Walking the Room but a bit more upbeat and less blue. (But if you have listened to Walking the Room you probably already checked out TOFOP).

How about some ones that are running currently/are currently on the air? I subscribe to a couple of video-game ones; I find the yogpod with Simon & Lewis to be particularly funny at times.

CharlesWillisMaddox posted:Who listens to the Ricky Gervais show for Ricky Gervais? I heard Gervais once described as "rapidly becoming Bernard Manning but without the rudimentary gag telling ability", which seems entirely fair to me. I find The Office is good, however much of his other stuff seems entirely mean spirited or self indulgent. In terms of the other people he works with, I agree that Merchant seems to be the one that's driving everything, and that Karl Pilkington is almost certainly a character that Merchant and Gervais created off the back of the real Karl's personality. I honestly can't believe that that guy's real. Going back to the British/Aussie podcast request - if you like videogames you should probably give One Life Left a try - it is ostensibly about games but frequently drifts off into utter chaos and the three hosts mocking each other. Also, the Peacock and Gamble Podcast is childishness of the absolute best kind. I've just tried three times to write something here about some of the content but it all sounds like something a couple of 14 year olds would say, which is sort of the reason it's great. It's two good friends who happen to be comedians talking poo poo for half an hour.

nemoulette posted:It's probably more than Karl is smart enough to play up what works. Listen to the XFM shows from 2001-2002. He's real. And it's like what they've said in the past: they spent months writing a single episode of The Office, how owuld they be able to come up with an hour of Karl every week? And if so, why would they waste it on a radio show? I honestly don't think it's fair to compare a single episode of The Office to anything that comes out of Pilkington's mouth. I dislike Gervais a lot, but The Office is a well written and genuinely funny piece of work, I can understand it taking an age to write. I don't think you can say that of Pilkington's nonsense. I know I'm in a minority here, so I won't keep going on.

Yeah if you like the podcast, check out their XFM show which is what the podcast is 'based on.' Karl has been 'acting' for a long time now, including the podcasts. He's a 'real person' on the old radio shows though. They just decided to retell and then sell the stories on the podcast. And The Office is of course the best thing Ricky has ever done. And Steve is brilliant. And Ricky is annoying with atheist/shock comedian shtick.

For the Commonwealth podcast suggestion, I'll once again point to The Vinyl Cafe by Stuart McLean from Canada, son of Australian immigrants. It's a proper CBC radio show taped in front of a live audience, and there's music and other odds and ends, but I really enjoy it. There's typically a 10-15 minute long story based around a fictional family in Canada. Sometimes funny, sometimes touching, sometimes you'll break down in tears (the one about the guy who died in WWI always gets me). And it can even be painfully hilarious, like when Dave has to cook the turkey. Last time I mentioned this one of our dear neighbors to the north stated his utter hatred of the show, so your mileage may vary.

It might just be because Office UK was hyped to the loving moon and back before I ever got around to seeing it, but I think it's way funnier. Tom Scharpling's terrible opinions are at least very entertaining. That's not a skill a lot of people really possess.

Ricky Gervais podcast/XFM shows can swing from funny to mean in an episode. Sometimes they are comedic gold, other times it's just Ricky being a massive bullying dick to Karl. That being said, when it's good, it's one of the few podcasts that can actually have me laughing out loud. Then again, I think Ricky's squealing laugh is pretty infectious so that might have something to do with it.
