I run a gaming podcast, I wondered if anyone else does anything we could make a list of and follow etc.

Three guys and a cup

Gamescoop is pretty much the only one I listen to.

I used to listen to Kinda Funny Gaming, Glitch Please (Rooster Teeth), IGN UK, IGN Playstation and IGN Xbox and also their Nintendo but they all fell off last couple of years as I am commuting less so less podcast time for me. Gamescoop stays mostly because it's just news, retro stuff and a 20 question retro game game. It covers all the main stuff and some opinions but because it's only 1 hour for all genre, it doesn't drag on. I know there are entire podcast on Last of Us Pt1, I just couldn't imagine talking about a game for an hour.

Yes i think an hour on just one topic makes it a bit of a saga sometimes. I mean unless you love debates or fan Bois!
I'll check out games scoop

Wow that's a full load of podcasts. How come so many? What do you like in general?

That’s why most of these fell off, inevitably there are quieter periods in a console cycle where there are less games comes out as developers gear towards the next Gen consoles and they all seem to do the same thing.

PS5 special - what we expect
XB1X special - does special matter?
Nintendo - is Breath of the Wild the best launch game title
Halo infinite - Should it be delayed? And look back on the Halo saga.

etc, they can focus an entire hour on 1 topic. Game scoop will cover that in about 10mins and then move on. Unless you really want to deep dive into the topic, personally, bite size like that is what I am looking for.

Our podcast ranges in time, but we tend not to spend an hour on one subject. It can alienate people. So we try and move on when the times right.
 
Kermode and Mayo's Film Review
Collecting Cars podcast
Smith and Sniff
The Kitchen Cabinet
Homo Sapiens (occasionally)
David Tennant Does a Podcast With
The Bottom Line
Behind The Glass
The Guilty Feminist (occasionally)

Generally listen to them in the car on the way to work.

Time available!

With the gaming one I like the duration (not too long) and banter.

I have listened to other podcasts but I don't really have time to listen to more. I tend to listen to podcasts when I am working out, cleaning or shopping in supermarket!
 
It's interesting on where and why people listen to them.

Is there anything that keeps you going back?
And what are your pet peeves

Jeeeeeeez!!... where do you find the time?! :eek:
 
Darknet Diaries
Malicious Life
Cybercrime Investigations

They're all about hacking and cyber crime and I find the stories fascinating (and sometimes scary at the same time).

I'm the same used to listen to most of the IGN output even though i only have a ps4, but since i am not commuting i just listen/watch Gamescoop/Goosecamp/OmegaCops. Mainly ias its a mix of content and i like the presenters on it.

Butt First!

1hr 10mins commute to work there and back, in the gym and weekends when I'm chilling.

Some of these podcasts I've been listening to for over 10 years but many have come and gone during that time too.
