Title: Podcasts -- any favorites?
Post by: jeeps on August 23, 2015, 03:31:32 PM
[font size="3"]Over the past year I have become a big time podcast fan.  My iPhone has a handy app for finding and storing them for listening when I go for a walk or am on the road.  If you aren't familiar with them, they are like audio blogs, of sorts.  Anyone can make one and on any topic under the sun.  Just download and go.  They are good source of entertainment (and learning) while on the road, as you drive to your next campsite, or when you're boondocking with no internet connection and forgot to bring a book.

I am always looking for new ones to add to my list.  I love any related to RVing, so I listen to ...

RV Family Travel Atlas,
Roadtreking,
Living the RV Dream,
RV Navigator,
and
All Things Overnight RV Parking -- which stopping producing new episodes in 2012, but has a lot of good info. 

There's also a new one called "Where RU RVing Now" that's practically begging for people to call in and share their RV travels.  

I'm also interested in backpacking and (now) motorcycling so I have a few on that.  Plus I listen to political podcasts and a few other misc. topics.
  

Question!  Do you listen to podcasts and, if so, what are your favorites?[/font]

On my iPhone:

Freakonomics Radio
Radiolab from NYC
Reliable Sources
The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe
Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me
Weird Things
Common Sense with Dan Carlin
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
The MacCast
QuackCast
Skeptoid
FilmSpotting

So far, nothing RV related.

Keeps me entertained on dog walks and working around the yard. Helps pass the time on long road trips as well - may look up some of those RV podcasts on our next trip.

On our AppleTV:

Washington Week
Fox News Sunday
Wall Street Journal Editorial Report
MacBreak Weekly
This Week In Tech
CordKillers
TechNews2Night
iOS Today

We cut the cord, so virtually all our watching is via podcasts, NetFlix, Hulu and that sort of thing.

Brenda listed all the top RV related podcasts!  I listen to the first 3 on her list and all are excellent.  I will be at the Hershey show and hope to say hi to the RVFTA couple.
