I saw this for the most popular podcasts. Like many others, I find that podcasts are a good way to pass the time while I'm exercising, driving, or doing projects around the house.

Besides the CycloneFanatic podcasts, what are you listening to?

I really enjoy podcasts, but I also find it really hard to listen to any. Only rarely do I get the opportunity to listen to a full one in one sitting (when I do, I'd usually rather do something else) and I've found that I can't concentrate on them at work because either I'm paying attention to one or the other, but not both.
 
Don’t listen to any of the top 50 except for the Kelce brothers on occasion if they have an interesting guest. I listen to a handful of daily and weekly baseball podcasts. Williams and Blum, CF men’s basketball/football shows, 2GNC. Then a few weekly podcasts from the guy who was a founder of Rooster Teeth who I’ve spent most my life consuming his content. That pretty much takes up all of my listening hours during my work day.

Love true crime and movie podcasts.

Confused Breakfast which is out of Cedar Rapids. They recently did talked about a villian movie tournament which make me think maybe they lurk on here.

Also the comics who do small town, murder, crime in sports and your stupid opinions are best pods imo.

Couple that does Murder in America is good too.
 
Just started listening to Two Thumbs Down. Two guys make a show on movies that were given two thumbs down by Siskell and Ebert back in the day. It's awesome if you like that kind of stuff. I've only listened to 2 episodes, but some of the movies they hated are insane. Robin Hood prince of thieves, home alone 1 and 2, TMNT. It's crazy. Those guys were so out of touch.
 
The Kelce Bros is the only top 50 I listen to , but I normally watch the Youtube version. I listen to a couple show rewatch podcasts, a few comedy/interview/pop culture podcasts. I saw that Chris Hardwick started his podcast back up a month ago, so that is the newest one I just started.

Current rotation:

I listen to every ep of the above when released.

History Hyenas

These are the regular listens. There have been a bunch of series over the years I've sprinkled in.
 
Besides Cyclone Fanatic podcasts, I listed to a lot of health and fitness podcasts. MindPump (although it goes off the rails at times) Jordan Syatt and Dr. Layne Norton.

I also listen to a few religious podcasts but won't mention them here.

Outside of CF and IE pods, I'm listening to in no particular order:

Cyclone Insider
Real Time with Bill Mahr
Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend
Data Over Dogma
Bears Talk Underground (Chicago Bears)
The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart
Star Talk
Hardcore History (when ya got time to kill)

The West Wing Weekly is a great one that's wrapped up.

CF pods and 2GNC, as many have mentioned here.
I also like Bill Simmons podcast and Zach Lowe show during the NBA season.
I'd be curious to try his rewatchables podcast on old movies when I get an opportunity.
Will do Josh Pate or Solid Verbal for some national CFB coverage in season.
Try to do audiobooks at times on drives as well.
I've tried Joe Rogan but I'm too intelligent to listen to it for more than a few minutes

Outside of IE/CF, I listen to a **** ton of CFB related pods year round.

I love everything that’s come out of the EDSBS universe. Shutdown Fullcast, Split Zone Duo, Phantom Island. Not related, but Solid Verbal is great as well.

Non sports, I love The Rest Is History, Robert Earl Keen’s Americana, and Political Beats (political journalists doing deep dives on musical artists).

This is an incredibly random one and it makes no sense that I like it. But I find myself listening to Cazner and Wilner (I think that's who they are). They are PAC 12 guys who I started listening to when the latest round of realignment was going on. I like that they don't talk about other ****. I don't know what their other interests are and I don't care. They aren't sponsored so I don't hear commercials for stuff. Part of the appeal to me is probably because I can be smug about how the Big 12 managed to survive and their conference didn't. And I think it is interesting to hear about how that conference is trying to scrap together something because that would have been us. They are obviously PAC 12 homers and I can appreciate that level of dedication. They do talk some about the former teams so today I laughed when they talked about how they thought Utah would be so great last year and how they think that Utah will bounce back.
 
CF and IA Everywhere, not all of them but most of them
Bill Simmons and Brian Windhorst during NBA season
Fly on the Wall (Dana Carvey and David Spade)
NYT The Daily
Ezra Klein
Vox Today Explained
History of the 90s (everybody in CF OT would love this)
Everything 80s (everybody in CF OT would love this)
Conan Needs a Friend
Slate podcasts (Slow Burn, One year)
Revisionist History (Gladwell)
KCRW Left Right & Center
Lots of super nerdy niche podcasts about vintage video games and classic/scifi movies
