Not quite a podcast but Matt Berry Interviews... is available on the BBC Radio iPlayer. Really funny and reminiscent of Chris Morris.

Criminal is a good one. Each episode they talk about some form of criminal activity, often quite curious - for instance about a massive black market for carnivorous plants, due to its supposed healing properties (according to some new age guy in New York) , which most likely is hogwash. So there's this weird economy and everything that entails behind it. It's usually very interesting, to the point and really well made.

@galeforce some of the Trump discussion got me thinking that you'd find this episode of Sam Harris' podcast interesting

Just listening to his 'Timothy Snyder Speaks' youtube episodes. He has a way of joining a lot of dots and completing the picture.

The no history of European nation states argument was not something that had occurred to me until I read it in the Road to Unfreedom.

I was listening to a Sam Harris podcast there yesterday about White Power, which was good in itself, but there is a particularly interesting section about 40 mins or so in related to the Russian cyber brick stirring that the guest, Christian Piccolini, stumbled accross during the course of an attempted intervention.

The whole thing is worth a listen actually.

Just got through the first three episodes of 'My dad wrote a porno..." Brilliant. It had me in stitches.

Joan and Jericha, funniest thing I've heard in any format for a while.

Have you seen that some of the Gangs of the EPL are up on YouTube?

Gangs of the EPL is brilliant. Think they have pretty much every one on YouTube now. The world cup specials were great too. Peter and Mrs Beardsley on Athletico Mince also hilarious, the latest one where they meet Nick Knowles the funniest yet.

The new Gary Lineker and Danny Baker podcast is a good listen.

It's called Behind Closed Doors and is just the two of them swapping anecdotes. Lots of Gazza stories. An enjoyable way to spend 50 minutes.
