If i'm out walking then I'm an Absolute 80's Classic Rock listener or similar but my wife has started listening to podcasts for a change and loves it. I don't even know where to begin with podcasts. What do JKBers do? Podcasts or Spotify? And if podcasts, what do you listen and how do you find it?

Usually listen to podcasts on Spotify. Just search using the name of the podcast when in the Spotify app. Scarves around the funnel is a good listen. Athletico mince is good if you want a laugh.

I change it up now and again, but usually listen to podcasts when I'm walking the dog. Football Ramble is a decent podcast but focuses on English football. No such thing as a fish is the t.v. programme QI's podcast. The Luke and Pete show can be very funny at times. If you like science, I'd reccomend the infinite monkey cage too.

Gilbert Gottfried's Amazing Colossal Podcast on Spotify my favourite at the moment.

Steve Buscemi,Artie Lange,Robert Wagner and the Blazing Saddles tribute plus many more brilliant listening.

Enough to do you a year,if you like old movies this is the podcast for you.

Салатные палочки

I only listen to 2 or 3 podcasts regularly unless one comes along I'm interested in and I use Spotify to listen to them. I have used other apps but I'm used to Spotify and I find it more user-friendly. Plus if I put my VPN on it blocks the adds in between them so the episodes just play continuously. 

 

I mostly listen to Top Flight Time Machine, which started out as a football podcast but just descended into any old shite. I've heard it described as Derek and Clive for the 21st century. If you like to listen to two middle-aged men talking about anything and everything, then I would highly recommend it. Their Melchester Odyssey, a deep dive into Roy of the Rovers is honestly one of the funniest things I've heard. 

 

I also like a few crime podcasts. 'Skinwalker' is a good one consisting of around half an hour of Scottish murders. 

 

You could probably just Google your interests, for example "dogging podcasts" etc and you'll get some ideas.

Some cracking podcasts on the BBC sounds app. 

 

"The Northern Bank Job" is excellent. 

 

So is "Intrigue: The Ratlines". 

 

 

And I love "Classic Scottish Albums" with Davie Scott of The Pearlfishers. Some brilliant episodes (Screamadelica, the white room, sulk, psychocandy, bandwagonesque, hats, etc).

BBC Sounds is a great way to dip your toe into the world of podcasts, tons on there and split by category which makes searching easy.

 

OP may like Popmaster (Ken Bruce Music Quiz) if into music.

 

I have recently started listening to investigative ones and Sport's Strangest Crimes and The Lazarus Heist are both very good.

 

For laughs, Wheel of Misfortune is good.

 

All the above are BBC Sounds, assuming OP is ages with me if into 80's music then my favourite non BBC Sounds podcast at present is Quickly Kevin will he Score about 90's football (albeit heavy English bias).

The Coming Storm is a great podcast to listen to when out walking the dug.

Just finished this and have to agree its excellent, as is "Sports strangest crimes" and the "missing cryptoqueen"

 

On Spotify if you want a laugh I cannot recommend more the podcast "My Dad Wrote a Porno"

Doorstep Murder and Hillsborough were really good. 

 

Also there was "Who killed Emma Caldwell?" on BBC sounds app. 

 

Excellent too. But I think that has temporarily been taken down as someone has been charged for it. (spoilers... The podcast wouldn't be entirely surprised by the person who got charged)

For those that enjoy the Serial, mystery, crime investigation style podcasts take a listen to A Very Fatal Murder, made me chuckle all the way through

Listened to all those football ones mate, love a podcast when out with the dog or driving for my job.

 

Don’t know how you can stomach that Football Ramble though - the presenters are absolutely brutal.
