Philosophize this with Stephen West. It's a chronological look at philosophy from the Pre-Socratics to Nietzsche. He does a great job of explaining life in the time period and historical context of each philosopher and explains their major thoughts. Not too high level but not too low either. It's very well done.
 
There's a leader's huddle podcast the Company Command and Platoon Leader forum guys put out from USMA as well and it's pretty decent. Really more oriented on company-grade officers - but some good information for company and field grade NCOs and officers. They interviewed the/a dude from the MWI and it was really interested - I've subscribed to that podcast but haven't listened to any yet.
 
^I've heard that they do this but I've never heard the pod cast. CALDOL, the organization that does Company Command and Platoon Leader, does some good videos and ethics training.
 
Jocko podcast is a good mix of book reviews, interviews, ju jitzu and a kick in the ass of motivation.
 
@TLDR20 , do you still feel this way?

Joe Rogan Experience but only if I like the guest, often I think Joe Rogan is an asshole who is just bigger than all the people he hangs out with. I often get the feeling that's why he says some of the shit he does.

That was in Feb of 16'. I think Rogan has calmed down a bit over the year and does not come across as Jim Brewer anymore.

Just finished listening to Rogan's interview of James Hetfeld from Metallica. It was really good.

I do not feel the same. I love his podcast these days.

I'm also really into Hardcore History recently. Ghosts of the Ostfront is great.
 
I've been driving to work the last year, 6 hours one way, once a week and then at work spending anywhere up to 10 hours a day behind the wheel. I had been listening to books on Audible as the rural FM radio was giving me the absolute shits. Then decided to have a go at a podcast. Love them.

I know I'm not the only one, so who are you listening to, what platform do you use, do you tend to stick with a theme, (I've pretty much exclusively listened to sporting bio pieces so far), or do you mix it up?
 
I've been listening to the Howie Games by Mark Howard on podcast one. They're more your 60-90 minute one on ones with various sporting personalities. Mark also does a podcast called The Moment, which are more of a production, chopping in audio from events around the topic, others involved, along with the main subject/s.

I've just listened to this one on Jason McCartney this morning. PodcastOne: The Moment
Jason played Aussie Rules back in the 90s and 00s, a very handy key position player, mostly in the back line, but also handy up forward. In October 2002 he was involved in the Bali Bombings, sustaining 50% burns in the initial suicide bomb blast just outside of Paddy's Bar. On 06.06.03 he managed to come back and play league footy, amazing considering the burns and skin grafts he was still healing from. He retired that night after winning a tight game and was back in Indonesia within a couple of weeks to give evidence against the bombers. I watch that game on youtube occasionally, always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

Geeze, I searched for a podcast thread. This dismal display of searchfu makes me sad on the inside. Can you merge them for me please?
I did too. Looks like you need to search for thread title "Podcasts" with an "s".

-Merged, per your request -
 
A few of the Podcasts that I listen to are:

Hardcore History
The Joe Rogan Experience
Serial
Up and Vanished
TED Radio Hour/Talks Daily
The Fighter and the Kid (TFATK)
The Tim Ferriss Show

Rogan and TFATK are the only two I listen to multiple times a week. The others are either seasonal, or people who I listen to depending on their guest.
 
Mike Ritland's "Mike Drop" has been pretty solid. He only has 9 episodes but all of them have been pretty interesting.
 
I saw this one and wanted to hear Evan from thirtysecondsout.com.

After 2-3 minutes I hated the host. After about 7 I wanted to kick puppies and eat babies. It takes this clownshoe 15 minutes to start interviewing Evan and I won't even type all of the dumb shit coming out of her mouth. Bonus points: she is a Fox News military "expert." She's so bad I'm thinking of bailing on the interview which is sad because Evan's work is awesome and he seems like a good dude.
