Varicelli posted:Probably been asked before, but I'm looking for some Leftist podcasts / vodcasts that aren't rife with faggotry, feminism, and rampant self-satisfaction. Think Rachel Maddow.. I guess. You could delete the podcast app, which will restore the podcast functionality back to the iPhone music app, and use iTunes. You'll have to use Home Share to share one of your computer's libraries with the other to make sure the two computers are synced, but the iPhone/iTunes sync will be seemless.

This means I've quickly cut through the backlogs of all of my podcasts, and even eaten through some others I just started listening to. So I'm looking for two things, one is a very specific podcast I knew of and then forgot about and can't find again, and the other is just some general recommendations. You might like Big O and Dukes, they talk wrestling sometimes.

I tried Adventure Zone and Friends at the Table based on this thread. They're kind of polar opposites of gaming but both good. Friends at the Table seems both mechanics focused, and taking the roleplay serious (although not so serious to not have some jokes). Adventure Zone, D&D is just sort of a loose anchor for them to goof around with each other, but it's really enjoyable goofing around.

Looking for good, engaging content about real problems with intelligent hosts. Hopefully beyond more than "lol here's how to change a diaper". Tested.com has plenty of dads, which mainly consists of the old whiskey media crew (video game/tech people). I've listened to an episode and liked it although I'm not a dad so your mileage may vary.

100YrsofAttitude posted:I love Hardcore History and will get the backlog as soon as money allows, but in the meantime I began to listen to the History of the English Language and it's really pretty great. I like the guy's style of narration and his mixing of linguistics and history goes down well. I tried Revolutions but I feel like I'd get more if I just read a book. Or if the dude literally posted up his scripts and I just read those I'd like it better, he's not a very engaging speaker imo. You might try Sound Opinions. It's NPRish at times and definitely rockist but they do dissect a few classic albums a year and it's a good way to get exposed to stuff from basically the 50s on. That might not be exactly what you're looking for, sorry. General Ironicus posted:BLAMMO http://feats.podbean.com/ Awesome, thanks, I'll check it out!

SilentChaz posted:Retronauts is still going. So I figured out what happened here, I had a feed that itunes says was still good but wasn't ever adding any new episodes. Which sucks, but, I finally fixed it and hey I have roughly 3 years worth of good retro video game podcasts to listen to now. CzarChasm posted:Plumbing the Death Star And from the same people as the last two on this list, a podcast where they ask the questions that don't really get answered in pop culture. Like "Is Batman a failure?" "Is Jonathan Kent from Man of Steel a bad father?" "Does John Hammond even understand what a theme park is supposed to be?" I'll be honest, I really wanted to like this podcast, but the hosts all tended to be a little shouty for my liking. You can't really argue with the width and breadth of the topics they cover, so if you find a topic you like, you'll probably enjoy at least that episode. I don't listen to every episode they make just due to already having a library of podcasts that I'll never get through, but, when there's a major "nerd" movie out, these guys always come straight from the midnight release and then talk about the movie in a generally funny way. And since they're usually the first to market because they're from New Zealand or some poo poo, which means I can listen to the podcast on my way home from whatever movie I just saw, which is especially nice when I make the 40 minute drive to the IMAX.

Kaptain K posted:Somebody recommend me a daily(ish) podcast that's at least an hour long. I used to listen to Adam Carolla and KATG every day but both of those lost their appeal years ago and I kinda miss having daily consistent content. Mike O'Meara (of Don and Mike fame) has a pretty radio showish podcast. His politics are democrat but they try to keep politics out of the show and mostly succeed (if anything I wish he'd talk about it more). He's gotten old so some of the issues of him just not getting modern tech or culture are somewhat frustrating, and the show can get formulaic but the show is still overall good to me and at times gets me rolling. Not sure if this show works for someone who didn't grow up with Don and Mike but it's stood the time with me whereas Adam and KATG did not.

It is funny though how I'll hear an ad for something on a million podcasts and never feel compelled to buy but like if the Bombcast talks about it I usually at least consider giving it a try (other than Squarespace). I am sure that proves some sort of marketing theory somewhere.

Azathoth posted:It's the divide between podcasts that put out hours of content each week vs. ones that release less than an hour and do so every couple weeks. I prefer shorter, less frequent, but higher quality updates but I get that the economics of it mean that, if you want to make a living doing it, you've gotta churn out hours per week of content. On those frequent update podcasts, no one's really gonna try to power through their back catalog, and those seem to be the most popular kind of podcast. This is the problem that the iOS 11 Podcast app is trying to solve by allowing creators to specify whether they're narrative vs episodic, and it then presents the episodes to the new user in a way to make sure they're getting what the show creator wants first impressions to be first. Too bad they hosed everything else up.

I want to start listening to Adventure Zone from the beginning, but I can't figure out how to just make it play all, or how to download an entire podcast's archive. If you click the three dots next to the “continue playing” menu near the top of the podcast page, there will be settings there. I’m there you can set it to play in sequential order. I think you need to be on 11.1 or later for continuous play to work.

I think there actually is or was an additional "how to design games" show on the network too, lol, because I was not talking about yours, I think James had one as well (which is actually how I found your show because of an interview about heartbreakers). But this was an oversight on my part because System Mastery is definitely great and deconstructs both good and bad games in a funny way, and if anything the bad games teach more about what makes a game good.

It's silly to complain about unprofessionalism in an amateur medium, but if you're an amateur surely you love what you do, right? I feel like the rough around the edges stuff is basically just disrespectful to the audience and their limited time. A problem I have is that I actually think poor audio quality is funny. One of my podcasts, by rule, is done in front of one of the most powerful consumer-level fans you can buy. I tend to be pretty selective though to who I give links to, to people who hopefully Get It but randoms still seem to find it somehow and I pity them.

So I'm at a part of the year where I need to spit out a lot of podcasts while being in front of a computer screen that has a lot of information on it, and not have to spend a ton of time editing them. In the past I've just plugged my mic in via USB directly into my macbook, fired up audacity, record a bunch, edited a bunch and uploaded them all to podbean without a problem. Apparently there is an audacity bug with Catalina though that doesn't allow it to recognize external mics. Is there another good free app for doing this? Garageband doesn't like you to have a bunch of projects open at once and I edit in a different room than I record so stopping to edit each one is a big pain. Not to mention that apparently the tempo of my outro music is wrong so it has come out all squished.

A lot of the ones I'm finding are heavy on video games, or way too specific on just PC stuff. I'd like to hear some recs as well. Well, I wish I could still recommend Tested because it's a good tech podcast but unfortunately it's also a bad pop culture podcast and these days that's generally the focus of the show. Brad & Will Made a Tech Pod actually doesn't get into games too often considering the hosts (Will Smith and Bradshoemaker) but they only focus on one topic a week and it's rarely about new stuff. I like it because I'm old but it doesn't really touch on cutting edge stuff often. I like Shades of Brown a lot but yeah it does end up rather computer or video games focused at time.
