I'm an "ETF Guy" so I listen to a lot of the wonky ETF and Finance-related podcasts:
- Behind the Markets with Jeremy Schwartz
- Invest like the Best - with O'Shaughnessy - not just finance stuff. example: Recent podcast on "Tracking" wild animals in the bush was great.
- The Curious Investor - AQR's new Podcast on financial factors and the like
- The Meb Faber Show - Meb Faber runs a fund and has
interesting guests
- The Monthly Dirtcast - ex-Lehman guy who started a popular daily financial newsletter. Still OK - needs help editing and more frequency.
- Trillions - ETF-Focused Bloomberg podcast with Eric Balchunas. Trillions refers to the $5tr in ETF assets today
Other Stuff
- 99% Invisible - interesting random stuff - well produced
- Bowery Boys - NYC history
- Desert Island Discs - long running radio interviews on the BBC
- How I Built This - interviews with Entrepreneurs - highly
recommended (NPR)
- Masters of Scale with Reid Hoffman
- Pod Save America - Ex-Obama guys discussing the past week's news
- Real Time with Bill Maher - audio of his HBO show - never actually seen the show - you miss out on some visuals but fun to listen to his ranting.
- Wait Wait Dont Tell Me, This American Life, The Moth - 3 well-produced NPR podcasts. Wait Wait is a game show with the latest week's news - fun background noise for me. This American Life has interesting stories but can get a bit slow.
- Radiolab - the audio formatting bothers me - but they have interesting stories.
- Freakonomics - declined in quality a bit from a few years ago - but still nice to listen to.
- Joe Rogan Experience - Long (1-3 hour) podcasts - But Im always amazed at Joe Rogan's ability to connect with guests. I like his interview style, the cadence of his questions and how he gets people to open up. See Elon Musk's latest interview - also on Youtube.
Edit & Request for Podcasts (RFP): I note that either a lot of podcasts - or at least the ones I get recommended to me - tend to be "left-leaning" politically. I'm on the lookout for more right-leaning podcasts that balance this out a bit. I see one comment below suggesting "Left Right & Centre" may help... Other ideas?
- glenra 8y ago> I'm on the lookout for more right-leaning podcasts that balance this out a bit...Other ideas? If you want news, politics and culture from a perspective that is libertarianish and/or right-wing-ish, try: * The Fifth Column - An editor of Reason Magazine + friends discuss news once a week * Penn's Sunday School - Libertarian/atheist/skeptic magician Penn Jillette + comedian friends discuss news * Coffee with Scott Adams - Will amusingly discuss from a "persuasion" frame why whatever Trump just did/said is, like, totally awesome and you just didn't get it :-) * The Ben Shapiro Show - A very-Jewish conservative anti-abortion pro-Israel take on the news * Honey Badger Radio - Outrage from a female-led Mens Rights Activist / anti-feminist perspective. (To balance that last one: if you want outrage from an explicitly PRO-feminist perspective try Feminist Frequency. )
- poke111 8y agoIf you're looking for something on the right - Ricochet has a number of excellent podcasts. They are trying to be like the NPR of the center right.
