Every time I've tried to listen to F Plus it's just some assholes laughing very hard at their own bad jokes.

I only have the free feed and enough podcasts in rotation to not need more content, but I feel like recently the best E1s have been the scripted ones (air dad and princess diana) which is kind of unfortunate because the basic premise is great

I'm going to second Hootington bringing up ALAB. This thread got me onto that and it's just a joy to listen to every time. They really wait til they have something to say before they start recording

ALAB is funny? I assumed it was like 5-4, which had it's moments but was mainly "and here's another way a few people made the world worse in a way you can do absolutely nothing about"

Blocked Party, Citations Needed, Gayest Episode Ever, Sandy and Nora, Code Switch

ALAB is fantastic but they don't release often enough so I end up getting my fix from Citations Needed most of the time

The premise of Gayest Episode Ever is fantastic, I'll definitely give that a try

ALAB is very funny. If you're unsure listen to episode 4 and 5 "Weeb wars" about the anime voice actor's #metoo lawsuit

ALAB is less "here's why the world sucks and you can't do anything about it" and more like "the world is loving absurd and we're just going to sit here and revel in the absurdity"

I agree I really can not get into F Plus despite some interesting “topics” (which felt only tangentially covered sometimes). it’s like if GBS mock (Everest/fat people/Xbox ram/r/relationships) thread had a podcast

which may be exactly what it is, idk. I’ve only tried it a few times but I couldn’t even finish on

I listen to them when the topic looks interesting. The Mussolini one (I think) had this pretty funny moment where his guest started ranting about horseshoe theory being right and he gave some tepid pushback and then launched into a tankies rant about the Grayzone's funding without any indication he'd thought too hard about Bellingcat

robert evans is a nato anarchist that tried to make excuses for the bolivian coup, the single most slam dunk case of 'this is bad' in recent geopolitics for any person claiming to be a leftist.

Are there any other good podcasts? I have to drive a lot more for my job now, and I'm running out of podcasts. I tried to get back into My Favorite Murder but it seems like they've run out of anecdotes for the half hour of banter in each episode and aren't generating new anecdotes because of Covid, and so that segment is just dire now.

Minion Death Cult is good, they trawl through the insane fever swamp of boomer facebook and examine the weirdest floaters
Rude Tales of Magic is Branson Reese and friends playing d&d and it's the most consistently funny podcast there is
Trashfuture is sometimes about the UK but generally about how stupid everything is now we live in the future we were promised

yeah, my explanation sort of sucked, so I should elaborate

Portal Of Evil was about witnessing the poo poo and commenting on the poo poo, whereas Something Awful was about rolling around in it and participating in it
