- [*Revolutions*](http://www.revolutionspodcast.com/) by Mike Duncan
It's a history podcast told over multiple "seasons". Each season focuses on a different historical revolution starting with the English Revolution of the 17th century in season 1, then continuing to the American, French, Haitian, South American, July Revolution, and now the 1848 Revolutions. Mike Duncan is very engaging and entertaining. He does a great job of telling the story in an accessible way which does not require the listener to be overly familiar with the subject material beforehand.
He perfected his podcast style with his previous podcast, [*The History of Rome*](http://thehistoryofrome.typepad.com/), which followed, over almost 200 episodes, Roman history from the founding of the city to the fall of the Western Empire in the 5th century.

- My Dad Wrote a Porno.
Essentially the main host's father has written erotica, so he and his two friends decided to read it aloud, one chapter per week.
The book is so hilariously bad and deeply wrong in so many levels that you can't help but love it, would highly recommend.

- Bill Burr's "Monday Morning Podcast". It's a great way to jump start the week with an hour of quality comedic rambling and there's the bonus podcast he does on Thursdays to gracefully end the week.

- S-Town, aka Shittown. It's fucking stupefying. A true story about a brilliant guy that lives in a rural community - I don't want to give any more away. It's brand new, though released in full, so I don't expect it to get a lot of love in this thread. LISTEN TO S-TOWN!

- Stuff You Should Know
It's basically a podcast all about random things across the world which are interesting. For example, why do abandoned cities exist? How do military snipers work? How do ice ages work? And so on and so forth.
It's great! They last about 30-50 minutes on average and you can learn lots!

- Lore.
I'm super into paranormal stuff like ghost stories and creepy castles, etc. The guy who does Lore has the most soothing voice. Sometimes I put it on when I can't fall asleep.

- The Weekly Planet.
This one guy uses two voices that occasionally overlap and talks about comics movies TV shows and more.

- Hello Internet
Two educational YouTubers (CGP Grey, Dr. Brady Haran) just having a conversation. The amount of inside jokes is unparalleled. And it's undoubtedly the UK's best podcast as fairly voted by the readers of radio times.

- My Brother, My Brother, and Me - "an advice show for the modern era".
It's 3 weird brothers answering people's questions and random Yahoo! Answers posts. It's absolutely hysterical in a way that aligns very well with Reddit's sense of humor.

- We Hate Movies.
Those guys have consistantly had me giggling through most of their episodes. They're often over 2 hrs but I love movie discussions and they do it well with a lot of pokes at the obsurdity of some movies.
