Topic	Board 8, what are some good podcasts?
CoolCly 07/25/21 8:42:23 PM #11:	I have two I love. They aren't really "explore a specific topic" type podcasts though, just two guys chatting. Bad Friends - Comedy duo of Bobby Lee and Andrew Santino - standup comedians I went on a deep dive of podcasts in the LA comedy scene, starting with Joe Rogan and listened to a ton of the comedians that frequent the Comedy Store. They all started podcasts years ago following in Rogan's footsteps. A lot were junk. The ones I liked and stuck with were 1) Your Mom's House with Tom Segura and Christina Pazsitzky, which is a married couple, and 2) Tigerbelly, which is Bobby Lee (who you might know from Mad TV). I think Tom is incredible at this, but it can get a little too gross. Tigerbelly is good too but Bobby gets a bit too much his own ass with his ego. But at some point Bobby started another podcast with Andrew Santino, and they made Bad Friends and real magic happened. I think their chemistry is absolute top tier stuff. Also a key component is Rudy, the niece of Bobby's girlfriend who recently moved in with them from the Phillipines and has been adapting to American culture. She started serving as their in studio producer once the pandemic started since she was living in Bobby's house anyways. I'm not so sure recent episodes are good to start with. Just starting at ep 1 might be a good idea. But here's a couple clips I really like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfWOSM2Eixk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QkTz8bqWRU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSEsn8KTxfc First episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ftwd9Fa8aQ Intentionally Blank - Brandon Sanderson and Dan Wells - authors This one is more recent. It's not really about books despite the hosts being hosted by two authors. I'm a huge fan of the author Brandon Sanderson, and he likes to do youtube videos / live streams talking to fans and answering questions. A stunningly boring task he does is signing books alone in a basement for hours, so to pass the time he'll do live streams talking to fans while he signs. I watch them a lot, but recently there was a really good episode where a sci fi author friend Dan Wells chatted with him while Brandon was doing his signing. A fan asked them to rank the Indiana Jones movies or some other franchise and they both did so and gave a lot of insightful thoughts on what worked and what didn't about each movie. Then the rest of the livestream devolved into them just ranking every popular franchise like Star Wars or DC movies or whatever. It was a ton of fun. I remember thinking it was really good at the time, and then a month or two later they decided it went well too and chose to start a podcast together. The podcast is just generally them shooting the shit talking about pop culture or talking about personal stories or writing or whatever. The original live stream that inspired this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1DkmNk6gr0 First actual episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbA4n8PJwoI&list=PLSH_xM-KC3Zv3L2dLcX3WmtbQsfB8YSSw I think both these podcasts really just boil down to if you like the personalities of the hosts and seeing them talk about random shit. If so, it's very entertaining, if not, it's probably boring and literally nothing. --- The batman villians all seem to be one big joke that batman refuses to laugh at - SantaRPG <cite>CoolCly posted [p:956459242] in Board 8, w...
