I spend much of my time at work alone in a windowless lab listening to music/ podcasts. I of course have Gun For Hire Radio in the mix but I'm looking for some other ideas.

 

For anyone that is looking for an idea I highly recommend "Hardcore History". It's an excellent series, especially if you're into military history and the related geopolitics.

One of my favorites:

Mostly deconstructing BS main stream media stories. Hosted by Adam Curry (yes the MTV guy from the 80's) and John Dvorak, a tech writer.

Escape Pod-Science Fiction

I really like Painkiller Already, which evolved from people who play COD on Youtube is really good. They talk about all sorts of things--including guns quite frequently (The one host, Kyle is actually FPSRussia, famous pro-gun youtuber). Lately they've been talking about a survivalist trip they plan to take (and put up on youtube). They're trying to hunt everything they eat, make their own shelter and stuff like that. But they also talk about general stuff, world events, it's an awesome show.

 

Unfit for FM is really good too, and based out of Burlington County. They haven't posted a show in a few weeks due to internet problems, but their show is hilarious (but not for the easily offended).

 

If, like me, you're a videogame nerd, you might like The Patch, The Rooster Teeth podcast (both of which are from the web content producer Rooster Teeth). For videogame and anime nerdom, there's Fast Karate for the Gentleman. Video Game News Radio is good because the host is really up-to-date with the game industry, but the other hosts are just middle-aged blue collar divorced dudes. It's pretty funny to hear them make fun of shit, the offshoot show "Midwest Wasteland" isn't focused on videogames, but is more about the hosts telling funny stories from their youth.

 

I listen to a lot of podcasts, I have about 70 gigs worth on my ipod...

NPR car talk

 

It's somewhat funny, and sometimes educational. There's a fun puzzle to solve each week, and the answer to the previous week's puzzle. The podcast is mostly about car maintenance.

Ballistic Radio has some good firearms related podcasts,

For humor, try The Bugle, SModcast, the Now Show, and The 40 Year Old Boy.

There is one called "we're alive: a story of survival" I have been listening for years. Its excellent. It's about 40 mins each episode. The story begins at the beginning of a zombie outbreak and you meet new characters and it's basically how they survive and the different situations they have to go through. Highly recommend it.

Great suggestions so far. I've already grabbed a few to try out and I'm listening to Ballistic Radio right now. I also love Radiolab done by WNYC, and The Joe Rogan Experience, although some of his get pretty far out there

Radio free redoubt

The survival podcast with jack spirko. He talks about everything from permaculture to guns to politics. Excellent podcast.

Thanks for this, just listened to the first ep and I'm already hooked!

 

 

 

For any Harry Potter fans on here, check out Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. Instead of him being a naïve kid who just gets lucky, he's a diabolically smart Artemis Fowl type (wow, I've really dated myself here).
