274 - Limmy Limmy gives a very funny interview. The best parts might be his ability to show his vulnerable side and talking about the sadder times in this life but is still able to bring humour to these darker times. Richard Herring doesn’t bring a lot to the chat but does ask decent questions to give Limmy’s performance a bit of structure and direction.

Irish Folklore with Eddie Lenihan Blindboy has a real talent for finding fascinating guests who can grab the attention of the whole audience. Eddie Lenihan speaks with real charisma and even if some of the things he talks about could be taken as a bit silly, he speaks with such passion that you have to take it seriously. He takes through a lot of different stories about Irish folklore, mainly concerning fairies.

Ep 205: Tony vs. World Another MMA podcast. This has a great breakdown of UFC 249 from Jack Slack. He might give the best analysis of MMA of all.

In 2007, The Football Ramble was born out of Luke Moore, Pete Donaldson, Marcus Speller and Jim Campbell’s passion for the most popular sport in the world—as well as a shared inability to take themselves too seriously. Since then, the boys have

On the Continent - The Bundesliga returns and how might the transfer market change? This is the much superior Andy Brassell podcast because Luke Moore is a far better and more knowledgeable person for Andy Brassell to bounce his footballing thoughts off of then Jules Breach.It’s the best football podcast there is in my opinion. In this episode they discuss the return of the Bundesliga and the future of football’s transfer market.
The Joe Rogan Experience

#1470 - Elon Musk A shorter but better podcast overall than the first one I would say. Elon seems more comfortable with long form conversation this time around. The conversation mainly focuses on Elon’s different companies, the future of technology and coronavirus.

Food with a side of science and history. Every other week, co-hosts Cynthia Graber and Nicola Twilley serve up a brand new episode exploring the hidden history and surprising science behind a different food- or farming-related topic, from aquac

Eating the Wild: Bushmeat, Game and the Fuzzy Line Between Them This is a well put together breakdown of the history of hunting wild animals with its main focus on African hunting. The pod also touches on the morality of hunting animals in the wild. I love the editing style which bounces between 3 different voices.

315 - UFC 249 As always the MMA analysis from Conor and Phil is great as they preview UFC 249. They are annoyingly negative at the start of the pod though. The chat picks up a lot after this. I really like the chemistry between the two lads.

'Groundhog Day' With Bill Simmons, Sean Fennessey, and Issa Rae This is a podcast devoted to reviewing old movies. All the gang on this pod are very likeable. Bill and Sean clearly have a passion for movies and it really shows. Issa Rae guests on here. She seems to be a bit shy and reluctant to put opinions forward but that is to be expected since it’s her first time on the podcast. The guys do a really good job of bringing her into the conversation and when brought in she puts in a few good thoughts on the film.
