I can’t get into podcasts. I’ve tried. I just can’t do it.

People dogged NPR for getting nominated for the Golden Globe, but at least they don't dick around with incessant small talk before getting to actual topics and interview questions.

Podcasts will hook you with snippets on TikTok or Facebook, then you try out the podcast and it's fifteen minutes of lead-in about what some guy in the studio is wearing.

There are a few I like to listen to from time to time. Mainly crime stuff. But I can't get into people just sitting around talking about virtually nothing. Zero appeal to me.

I don't know why but it has pissed me off that Netflix and other streamers now have them. Literally just video of them sitting around talking about nothing. I can't imagine watching that.

But it's obviously just cheap production for them. Same as ESPN now just having shows that are just taped podcasts.

Not really. I've tried a variety of them (Rogan included). I just end up zoning out after awhile. I'll occasionally put on Audio From The Met (The Metropolitan Museum of Art) when I'm doing my eye compresses at night since they're usually just 5-10 minute snippets.

For what it's worth, I couldn't get into talk radio either. And I'm not a big fan of audiobooks, much prefer to read in print. So it's probably a processing thing for me.

ETA: I also don't like talk shows. The Graham Norton show is about the only one I'll watch. And hated when I was forced to watch them growing up.

have you listened to his podcast with Segura? it's pretty brutally unfunny, and I like Segura.

I started with 2 Bears, then because I like Tom so much I started into YMH. YMH (with a girl/wife mind you) is funnier than 2 Bears.

Ricky Gervais won best stand up this year at the Golden Globes. Shut the frick up and get off your whiny arse cross.

Did you see his special? It was ok, but best of the year? GTFO.

I did see it, thought it was a lazy effort, and was surprised he won.

That's not the point though. If Rogan had no chance to win best podcast b/c "woke DEI" we wouldn't have just seen Gervais win his 5th Golden Globe overall and 2nd for best comedy special.

I like RG, but he's not close to being the best stand up. He's funny for what he does, but nothing like a Chappelle (i find his older stuff funnier), Segura (Fat Segura was funnier), Patton Oswalt (Yeah, i know he's a big lefty, but his standup is hilarious), Louis C.K., Brian Regan, etc...

Giving out a golden globe to a comedian is a glamour award. Here's an award to a comedian that we've heard of, even though we don't watch stand up.

Meh. I only download episodes with people i find interesting or would like to hear a longer form of them. Joey Diaz is always funny, but his earlier episodes on Rogan were the best because we didn't know who Coco was, and so we were hearing those stories for the first time.

Don’t know. Gervais has somehow managed to thread the needle and isn’t on the hate list from the left like Rogan is. I’m not saying he’s not hated, but I wouldn’t say it’s universal.

I think he's avoided it because

a) He very vocally has stated his disdain for hollywood.
b) he's done this all by saying repeatedly, "it's just jokes"
c) He hasn't touched any of the sacred liberal mantra's, or at least none that i know of.

Let's be honest. It's because he has a British accent.
