I guess podcasts do.
I cannot think of a single good podcast. I say that, then someone recommends six. I listen to a few, each just as insufferable as the next. Same shit each and every one. Some twatwaffle just blathering about nonsense.
I don't know a single intelligent person who listens to them.
If you get blasted with boner pill ads during a podcast, you deserve it.
I wish Spotify would make the default view music and not books and podcasts.
The only podcast I actually got into was the Always Sunny podcast, which kinda ended abruptly when their schedules got too hectic. I tried Dropping Names with Jonathan Frakes and Brent Spiner but after a few episodes it got kinda dull with their mostly posting demeanor and them trying to just shoehorn as many names into stories as possible.
Podcasts are just people bullshitting. It's a replacement for friends or something. I don't get it. There's basically no content.
What I liked about Always Sunny podcast was it was the guys watching the episodes for the first time and would usually share a lot of great behind the scenes content while also BSing. If you've watched the whole series multiple times it's really entertaining.
