One of the cultural things I love most are Podcasts- I pretty much alternate between Podcasts & Music in my ears every free minute. I'm always up for a recommendation- so I'll throw out a few I love & I'd love to hear what you're into!
First of all, @SecondCaptains, those guys are like FAMILY to me man. I sat on a long car trip recently playing their podcasts to a dude who may have been politely humoring me while I looked at him for reaction. Anyway, Great Irish Sport insights- check it:

Super surreal & articulate Mr Blindboy of @Rubberbandits does some excellent themed podcasts that can seem whimsical but often make you think... def worth a listen..

Jarlath Regan does in-depth interviews with interesting Irish related people, & they're always worth a listen, & occasionally bonus excellent. Check out the list of folks! (He hasn't had us on yet, but I assume that's cos he knows we'd blow minds.)

As I'm doing Irish ones - I've gotta mention @WGMPodcast - its a show about creativity from @kneelsea & @Shaneinho - on hiatus right now, but the log is brilliant- The DomhnallGleeson or @Hozier ones are well worth a listen. theweeklygm.com
Gotta give a huge shout out to @ThisHeadStuff network here- they have really excellent shows including @Motherfocloir, The @AlisonSpittle Show, & the deadly @Juvenalia_Pod, & loads & loads more- check out the site & there'll be something you love!

Another excellent sports pod is @FairGameCast- presented by @ElaineBucko & @Emily_Glen - focusing on female Sportspeople, always really interesting with different guests & themed shows.

I'd be shot if i didn't mention Number 1 in the charts of Irish comedy podcasts: @JohnnyBtipp & @johnnysmacks - The Two Johnnys from Cahir, Co Tipp. "Two Johnnies recording podcasts"... GAA, Short puck-outs, and anything goes. soundcloud.com/user-172621518
Those @JOEdotie people do piles of podcasts - @BigReviewski's film show with @dohertyeoghan & @roarEcashin is good fun, & the @The_GAAHour is on the ball through the season too. joe.ie/podcast
(Actually the Joe.ie world cup Minipodcast with @dionfanning & @PaddyMcKenna was really excellent & worth a listen if you want to review the whole thing...
joe.ie/joe/the-joe-wo… )
For film, I really like @lwlies' "Truth and Movies" - it's a little dry, but the reviews are insightful & informative. Worth checking out.

@SongExploder is an excellent show about songs & how they were written - really interesting for songwriters & music fans especially. Its an ambition of @delorentos to feature on this show, its great!

Meet the Filmmaker is a cool podcast from Apple - check out the Martin McDonagh episode - really good

Those folks @nerdist have lots of cool pods, I hope you like Star Wars!

WTF with Marc Maron is generally really entertaining, and the Chris O'Dowd Episode is a great listen. The Ads, though,, lads, the ads.

The go to for Irish Music is the @NoEncoreShow podcast with @HanrattyDave. I physically LOL at least once an episode... Plus there is a "c'mon, really?" honesty to the show that makes it at times very real. Check it:
open.spotify.com/show/0rWk9RdRi…
I also listen to @guardian_sport's Football Weekly w/ @bglendenning, I loved @NPR's S-Town, Serial, & am about to start Pod save America!

As with most podcasts- please give them a listen, subscribe, & support through patreon or whichever means they use.

Any recommendations?
At #Ep2018 over the weekend I spoke to @Jarlath who told me about the Men Behaving Better podcast - another Irish pod to check out...
