Podcast recommendations
I've seen threads recently for film / tv recommendations, so I was wondering if people have any good podcast recs?
I typically listen the most to history / true crime but would love to listen to some interesting finance podcasts. Non-finance ones are welcome too.
These are non-finance but I like the Tim Ferriss Show, Jocko Podcast and Always Sunny Podcast.
thanks, will check them out!
That was a great one. The ones with Tim Dillon (and Alex Jones also), especially the most recent one, are hilarious too.
By far the most entertaining Joe Rogan episode I’ve listened to David Choe (episode 1518). The guy is an absolute freak but he’s got so many stories. Only episode I will ever recommend that someone has to listen to. Also has two prior episodes with him but 1518 is my favorite
Conversations with Tyler, Hidden Forces, and Making Sense are my go tos
The Behavior Panel is interesting.
America's Untold Stories gets interesting.
Those are some good history / true crime types.
awesome thanks!
Lex Fridman
The History of the Cold War on Spotify is really good, very detailed.
yeah I used to like him but he embellishes a lot. I like 'that chapter' Channel, more to do with murders.
Lots of great recommendations.
All around: Tim Ferris
Health: Andrew Huberman, Peter Attia
Military: Cleared Hot (Andy Stumpf), Jocko
Entertainment: Business Wars (this one is underrated imo), JRE
Love Cleared Hot, he brings some really interesting guests on the show
Finance: Animal Spirits and Compound and Friends
History/Military: Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
If you want some complete comedic detachment then Flagrant 2 is good
great pod
Philosophize this
Heist Podcast-- two hilarious Canadian guys discuss a famous heist from history each episode. Funniest podcast ever, I can't recommend it enough. Binged it all over covid and they just did their last episode (for now) but there are 200 heists to get through.
hardcore history, jocko, lex fridman, econtalk, uncommon knowledge (hoover institute), infinite loops, duncan trussell, and dave rubin or breaking points if I really want something political
if you speak spanish - el estoico, la fonda filosófica, entiende tu mente, ted en español
and a word on rogan. I listen to him a good bit but mostly because he gets interesting guests. the more I listen to him, the more I think he's just a curious and open minded guy, if you're going there for insight outside of his own personal experience with psychedelics, jiu jitsu, etc., you may be disappointed. he's definitely been a net positive for my life (introduced me to several interesting people), but if you want an intellectually stimulating exchange, go to lex fridman
Pod Of Jake, Subversive with Alex Kaschuta, The Realignment, My First Million, Deep End (by On Deck), Odd Lots
Daybreak, (it's only on the pro app) The Economist AM and The Daily for work. For fun? I like Dear Hank & John, Delete This, and Numberphile. (Yeah I'm a nerd) Most missed podcast? Hello Internet. What they did with the Radio Times poll was HILARIOUS. (The RT didn't release vote counts, but I think they got more votes than there are people on the planet--How the f*** would they explain that)
Great inputs so far, bookmarked some.
History: mike duncans podcast on the history of ancient Rome, fantastic, and everything from Will Durant
David Rubin, the Oxford union.
VC: the full ratchet
More nerdy: numberphile, fermilab, perimeter of science, domain of science , Quanta magazine
Music: Rick beato
All of these are besides the standard fare of WSJ, Pardon My Take, etc.
which one is MBA? is it MBA Insider by Coach Al Dea?
No like, the analysis reminds me of my MBA strategy classes
That MBA podcast looks kinda trash if you're trying to do literally anything besides consulting or tech post MBA. Makes sense tho - those 2 are probably the largest contingent by far.
No Bill Burr fans here? Ol' Billy Red Tits is my go-to for my Monday morning and Thursday afternoon commute.
The absolute best. Could listen to him talk about random shit all day long

Surprised to see Rave Dubin here, I think the guys is a joke (as evidenced by mountains of footage of him getting “dunked” on) but maybe I’m biased.
Odd Lots is the best all around business podcast imo; Masters in Business has some good guests on usually but Barry can be a bit whiny at times; Breaking Points is one of the true non-partisan political podcasts; Business Breakdowns is also very good.
Also for any history nerds Mark Felton on YouTube has amazing WW2 video shorts that are incredibly detailed yet digestible, I think he’s severely underrated.
Philosophize This. After finishing all the ~130 episodes (25 minutes each) you will think completely different.
It's the only Podcast which really got me. Tim Ferris, Jocko, etc. and all of those about self-improvement really don't get me because after you read 10 - 15 self-improvement books and 2 or 3 of Tim Ferris books, you will see that episodes are very repetitive. The idea is that if you want to learn what they talk about 1 hour in their podcast you can open any Tim Ferris book and he will explain it in one page.
Now, with Philosophy you couldn't do that, so give it a try.
True Crime Podcast: Last Podcast on the Left - one of the all-around GOAT podcasts...very funny and they put serious work into their research
Interview Podcast: People I Mostly Admire w/ Steve Levitt from Freakonomics. Want to give an alternative to Ferris and Rogan and have been really loving this one lately. Great guests that you wouldn't necessarily find on the JRE/TF circuit and the discussions often change the way I think about a given topic.
Serialized Podcast: There are a ton of great ones in this category that blew up with Serial. I liked S-Town a lot and more recently Whistleblower which is about the Tim Donaghy scandal in the NBA.
Fun / Light Podcast: Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend. One of my absolute favorites, put it on almost every morning as I drive to the office. Very light-hearted way to start the day
Mythology: Myths & Legends
History: History of Ancient Rome by Duncan
Invest like the best
Business Breakdowns
Unchained
Tim Ferris Show
Audible (seriously if you’re not listening to audible you’re missing out)
What are some of the best audiobooks on audible, in your opinion?
I mean, just like actual books ... I mostly listen to self help books or biographies on audible like:
Atomic Habits
Gengis Khan and the making of the modern world
the art of learning
influence by r. Cialdini
What it takes
losing my virginity
ive never listened to podcasts before. is it something you can start then go backwards from latest if youre interested? do most of them have ratings? always hear rave reviews for joe rogan but doubt im listening to 1k+ episodes...
Yes definitely. Unless it's a series that's telling a chronological story, you can start wherever you want. Joe Rogan for example, will interview a different guest every episode. Doesn't really matter which one you start with.
Comedy - Flagrant 2 w/ Andrew Schulz, Going Deep With Chad and JT, Whiskey Ginger with Andrew Santino
News - I would HIGHLY recommend "World News with BK". 2.5 hours, weekly podcast and covers U.S. and foreign news.
Interests/Sports- Joe Rogan, The Late Kick with Josh Pate (College Football), Spittin' Chiclets (Hockey), Cleared Hot with Andy Stumpf
I love that one, History is Dank and Joe Code are also pretty good too.
