I listen to all of these, but they're my "b team" of podcasts. I like all of the people way more than I like their podcasts but they are alright to listen to.

I think you may be missing a bit of Natasha's humor (regarding muslims, etc.), though I agree she does seem to not know seemingly common things.

I thought that Natasha's character was that she was too good for everyone,and that she was a rich stuck up girl.

Yea, I don't think she's ever expressed anything towards Muslims in any other way but comedic. That's why I think he might have misunderstood if he thinks she's being serious if she says something like "muslims are terrorists".

Well, I admit that I've never heard her actual comedy act, so I'm not familiar with her style. I wasn't aware that she played a character on the podcast, though. I thought she was just being her normal self. The Muslim-related comment that I'm referring to was from an early episode (I'm listening from the beginning). Duncan was saying something about how there are parts of every religion that make sense, then Natasha said, "But what about the Muslims? Why do they want to kill everyone?" She said it as if it were a commonly known fact that Muslims kill people. But that's just me.

The worst guest I've ever heard so far (I started listening around episode 100 and in between the new episodes I catch up on old ones, at about #49 right now) was this dude they had on I think sometime in July. He just would not stop loving talking for one second and was just namedropping people every 10 seconds. His thing may have been about Egypt. What I love the most about Rogan's podcast are when friends are just sitting around bullshitting, this guy just wanted to monologue and lecture for the two hours and it was very uncomfortable.

Anyone know what I'm talking about or remember what this guy's name was? I just found this thread today and really want to find the pages of this thread where that guy was on.

Pretty sure that was Joe Rogan Podcast #119: Jan Irvin.

The latest one with Anthony Bourdain was pretty interesting, but I couldn't believe how many times Anthony would answer a question about something and Joe would just reply "Woah............". At one point the silence was so long Bourdain actually started asking Joe questions.

Still an entertaining listen though.

PFT was pretty amazing on this week's CBB, but Zach Galifinakis is probably my least favorite regular guest on the show. I like his comedy a lot but he just seems so phoned in on CBB.

The Indoor Kids - Video game comedy podcast. They sometimes have interesting guests like Steve Agee. They focus less on the latest game news, and instead talk more about experiences with games that are already out there. I do have a few complaints though. The first girl they had hosting would not stop throwing out internet meme catchphrases. "LIKE A BOSS!" My other complaint is the "hardcore gamer" attitude they have. You should not be hardcore about playing a game. It is a game.

I'm really glad you brought this up, because I wanted to bitch about it when I first heard it but didn't because it wasn't explicitly a "comedy" podcast and wasn't sure if it was OK.

I listen to the main Nerdist podcast whenever there's a guest I like, but an early episode (#3, I wanna say) of Indoor Kids caught my eye, because they were going to be talking about fighting games and EVO, and I like both of those things. I loving hated the poo poo out of it. I sort of like the main guy, with the accent, and I think he's actually really quick-witted, but like you pointed out, I distinctly remember starting to count her "LIKE A BOSS!"'s. I think she got up to 4 before the guest finally tried to rib her about it? She talked about Reddit and memes and cosplaying a lot and seemed really flabbergasted that the other guys didn't care. She talked about how awesome Call of Duty and Starcraft tourneys were, and the guys were making fun of her and she got butthurt, then turned around and tried to make fun of fighting game tournaments but wasn't very good at it. I am the definition of casual gamer and I know jack about gaming as an industry, but they often don't seem to really know what they're talking about. If they've gotten rid of the girl that I hated, I can imagine trying to listen more, because I happened to like the main guy and the guest they had for that episode. I've listened/tried a lot of podcasts I didn't like or was bored with, but I've never actually been angry at one like I was with that episode. This was longer than it should have been.

I finally got one of them downloaded. I had to open it in firefox, then did file > "save page as" and it finally let me save it as an mp3. It's weird because I'd tried that a few times before and it always tried to save the actual page and hasn't worked again since.

I think the show is pretty great but it doesn't have a lot of comedy, but there are quite a few funny parts. I'm a pretty big gamer though so I identify with a lot of the stuff they talk about. Anyway that chick left the show after like the 4th episode and Kumails wife took her place, I like her more than the original chick. If you like Kumail you should listen to his CDR/CBB appearances, he's pretty funny and has an awesome John Mayer story.

I just started listening to Todd Glass's podcast, and I'm on the second episode... I am laughing my rear end off. It's so good, I like Jimmy Dore and CaEE but I've realized now why that show isn't one of my favorites anymore. Everything is a bit, and it's hilarious.

The G4 meme chick is gone now and Kumail's wife took over as the 2nd host. The content quality is much better and is geared more towards casual gamers since they are comics who love games and not professional game journalists. They just talk about game stuff and is more relatable than any of the professional gaming podcasts.

This weeks episode with Aisha Tyler had me cracking up multiple times at the gym last night. Her story about trying to watch Episode III in the theater and catching the 13 year old Asian kid in the seat next to her beating off was priceless.

When she started trying to explain that in the Jordan Morris episode I had flashbacks to ten year old me trying to explain Pokemon to my grandparents. You gotta keep that stuff on the net.

My god I'm on episode 5 of the Todd Glass podcast and from the start it's making me crack up. It starts with him being absurd and then he goes into "you're already smiling" and it makes me crack up. People walking past me on the street were giving me looks because of my reaction. Then Peppitone starts talking and he starts playing some "bedding" music. So loving funny... everyone who likes silly comedy NEEDS to listen to this.

That's the exact episode that I first tried. I wish it was fun to hate her, but I don't even want to try listening to another second with her in it. And yeah, most people learn that "you had to be there"-caliber stuff is boring to everyone else on the planet by high school, and the internet is the new "you had to be there". My fiance sometimes doesn't understand some of what I do/am interested in, but it's my job to put it in a framework that she has reference to, and people who talk about the internet and memes in real life rarely have that ability.

As a matter of fact, on your recommendation I tried out an episode with Kumail's wife instead (the one that starts out about race with Dominic from Derrick Comedy), and it is a thousand percent better. I think the hosts have great chemistry, she's pretty smart, he's very quick, and they have a pretty immediate rapport with Dominic. It's almost like it's a totally different show. I don't play modern consoles so I often don't have a reference, but they're very good at making it accessible. I'll check out the Aisha Tyler one too.

Yeah, I thought it was really weird that they didn't know that Star Craft is huge in South Korea, especially G4 girl who apparently spends a lot of time on the internet. Glad to know that she's not on the show any more as she was the reason I stopped listening. Out of curiosity, did they ever say why she left?

Stitcher takes your content off your rss feed so that affects download reporting and iTunes ranking. Not a great deal for podcasters, IMO.

No one's going to change my mind on this. I think it sucks, & if you can't bring yourself to dl the show from our feed then thanks & g'bye!

Consuming the show on Stitcher literally does damage to it for us. Again, sorry, but philosophically I'm just not okay with it.

People, we bust our asses to put out 2 FREE shows a week and some folks are bitching that they can't get it on ONE app? C'mown, guys!

@nerdist You're a smart guy, but that's a pretty silly comparison. Stitcher offers a convenient service and gives detailed tracking numbers

@nerdist Everyone has their own priorities when it comes to podcasts but I actually appreciate the stitcher service. It works for me.

I understand both sides of the argument, but if you agree to have your podcast on Stitcher then you are basically trading your content for free bandwidth/exposure to a wider audience. If you don't want to make that trade, don't put your stuff on Stitcher.

You blew my mind, man!

I think the problem Hardwick was having (If I'm remembering what he posted last night correctly) is that he asked them to use Nerdist's own feed on Stitcher so they could keep track of downloads/listens so they could get advertisers, Stitcher told them they would, and for a while they did. After a while though, Stitcher switched it back to their own feed without letting anyone at Nerdist know, so Nerdist didn't get any stats from them.
