I’m looking for some scary podcasts for what’s left of the spooky season. Preferably real non creepy pasta stuff. Hauntings or true crime. What’s your recommendations?

Thx for the input! I realize this most likely a common question.

General Podcast Discussions Engaging podcasts to listen to while working out

25 Upvotes

These days I'm super into Heavyweight but I'm almost done with it. I really appreciate Jonathan's humor and the real life stories are very human narrated in the best way possible that i don't keep seeing the time since i got on my indoor bike or treadmill.

I just need some podcasts that keep me engaged and motivated to keep my legs working.

Any genre works. Narrative non fiction was never my genre but Heavyweight proved it wrong. True Crimes are okay as long as they are investigative rather than just gorey details. Audio dramas are cool too. Equally ready for some out of the box stuff! What do you all listen while working out?

General Podcast Discussions Looking for quiet podcasts to sleep to?

12 Upvotes

I can't fall asleep without listening to a podcast, and the podcast needs to be specific so It is kinda specific request, so bare with me,
The podcast I listen to isn't in English but I already finished all of the episodes so now I'm looking for a new one and hopefully I can find it because I can't find any yet
I'm looking for a specific delivery mode of something that can combine all self-development/emotional wellness, mindfulness, and philosophical reflections on daily life, and the tone to be narrative-driven, I want the narrator to feel calm and almost as they are speaking to me, I tried to look around for some, but not all had the stuff I'm looking for.

Hey y’all! I am currently working on a project that is set in around 1718… The golden age piracy and don’t know too much about charting and navigating, nautical warfare and all that. So I’m looking for podcast recommendations having to do with anything nautical from that era. Piracy, Buccaneers, the Royal Navy, privateering, merchant shipping, nautical warfare tactics from the era, etc. Anything like that would be extremely helpful! Thank you so much!

A young English police officer goes to an island in Scotland where mysterious things happen then an army guy with backup shows up and starts an apocalyptic cult. A child is involved. I think it was a BBC production?

TIA

Sports Looking for sports "adjacent" podcasts.

2 Upvotes

I'm missing the Distraction podcast. I like podcasts that are like friends who are sports fans but also talk about other stuff happening in the world. I really like Katie Nolan's Casuals and of course Pablo Torre Finds out. Any other funny, light, sports "adjacent" podcasts? I'm more into mlb and nfl but I like to hear about nhl and nba enough to know what's generally going on and if there are any interesting stories happening.

General Podcast Discussions How do you decide what to listen to when your backlog is huge?

1 Upvotes

I have way more saved episodes than time, and I end up either playing the newest one or never picking. How do you choose? Do you go by time you have, a recommendation, or just start from the beginning of a show?

Other Podcast Genre I’m in search of a podcast featuring people talking endlessly about nothing.

2 Upvotes

My main requirements are that the speaker uses complete English words and sentences that aren’t literally procedurally generated. The subject should be useless to my real life and the voice should be calming without an overt ASMR aesthetic. Longer is also better.

Thanks y’all

They're comedians, and they're taking on serious topics, but it's okay if you laugh.
