Recommend your SINGLE BEST episode of any Podcast.

Posted by scottiethegoonie@reddit | Truckers | View on Reddit | 43 comments

I know we like to recommend podcasts to each other to pass the time, and I'm always trying to discover new ones so how about this:

Instead of saying "Go check out XYZ Podcast,"

What is the BEST SINGLE EPISODE of a Podcast that you like?

I'll Start:

Reply All - #158 The Case of the Missing Hit
Freakonomics Radio - 42. The Upside of Quitting

We Hate Movies:

Waterworld Dick Tracy Under Siege 2 Tank Girl

The Dollop #400-401 - Ronald Reagan

TimeSuck #57 - Andrei Chikatilo: The Butcher of Rostov (or maybe #394 Dick Byrd, but there are years of running jokes in there)

Behind the Bastards #74-75 - The International Church of: Drink Bleach

Hail Lucifina brother! Might I add the suggestion of #141 Albert Fish because of the absurdity of the entire episode and maybe sprinkle in #314 George M'Fin Carlin

RainierCamino@reddit

Man I thought about recommending that piping hot peanut buttbutter! ... But I've got a couple friends who tried listening to that for their episode and they couldn't handle it

[-]

flergityberg@reddit

I LOVE Behind the Bastards. The Mark Zuckerberg series is my favorite.

[-]

Timecook@reddit

I enjoy the concept but the host and producer annoy the hell out of me.

[-]

RainierCamino@reddit

Hope you enjoy. They've all got a back catalog years long at this point.

Regulation Podcast - Season 4, Episode 1 // I'm Gonna Set the Law on Gire [84]

This episode is one of my favorites, but there's a lot of lore and inside jokes that makes it worthwhile to start from the beginning instead.

A fellow regulation listener? Trying to play trucks irl?

To be honest I haven’t listened to this or any podcasts in a while. I only just found out it’s not called Fuckface anymore. But I remembered I always found myself dying of laughter and the whole “printing the law” thing and mid-episode season change was one of my favorites.

Scary stories by Dr. NoSleep

Let Them Fight - episode 104, Richard Chase

[-]

Diablo_Bolt@reddit

Anti Hero Podcast either the Tim Kennedy book of lies episode or the Rob O’Neill web of lies episode

[-]

solostepper@reddit

Two favorites that go together because the guests talk about each other: the Smartless episode with Conan and their episode with Stephen Colbert, both are laugh-out-loud funny.

[-]

FreeAndRedeemed@reddit

Kill Tony episode #672. Shane Gillis as Trump and Adam Ray as Biden. Comedy fucking gold!

[-]

Timecook@reddit

Hardcore History - The Mongols

[-]

tvieno@reddit

The Mongols was good though I liked Supernova In The East more.

To be honest, his recent Alexander the Great episode just didn't hold it for me.

2nd this.

Cumtown - Steven Segal. It's absolutely hilarious.

Timecook@reddit

The Ed Gein and Donner Party episodes are also really good. High quality podcast overall.

[-]

duhrun@reddit

Joe Rogan Experience #1315 - Bob Lazar & Jeremy Corbell, I love this episode and listen to it all the time.

[-]

scottiethegoonie@reddit (OP)

This is the type of JRE content I actually enjoy but I never really know if his guests are full of it.

[-]

Timecook@reddit

The alien/alternative history guests are the only episodes I can tolerate of JRE anymore. Ever since CNN made him look orange he’s gone full bore conspiracy theory, just to the left of Alex Jones and it’s not listenable anymore.

Episode 69 of the “Ecosystemic Futures” podcast is titled “Beyond Conventional Physics: Extended Electrodynamics, Lattice Structures, and the Frontiers of Propulsion,” where the discussion focuses on the potential for revolutionary advancements in propulsion, energy, and communication technologies by exploring emerging theories in physics like extended electrodynamics and lattice structures, often featuring experts like Dr. Harold (Hal) Puthoff from the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin.

Episode 65 of the “Ecosystemic Futures” podcast is titled “Beyond Paradigms: Ultra-Advanced Technologies, Anomalous Phenomena, and the Future of Innovation,” which features a discussion with leading experts in aerospace, energy, and advanced technologies exploring groundbreaking innovations that could potentially push beyond current paradigms of understanding.

The Church of What's Happening Now- Episode 383 with Theo Von

[-]

USPSRay@reddit

I highly recommend More Perfect, episode title "The Gun Show." It's a fascinating show on the second amendment, and it goes places that you would not expect.

Ghost stories for the end of the world - this podcast dips into many areas connected to the mafia, cia, p2 networks and a lot of the crazy shit left behind from WW2

The telepathy tapes - it’s about how autistic people have mind reading abilities and communicate with each other non verbally

Truck nuts , the dollop (for truck adjacent )

This is cheating but the Comedy Bang Bang best of. It's 4 episodes cut from 1 but it's there best bits of the past year.

[-]

Baddy001@reddit

Lex Friedman podcast - #331 Balaji Srinivasan

Absolute banger for like 8hrs.

[-]

scottiethegoonie@reddit (OP)

I'll check it out. I like some of Lex's pods but they're all a huge investment. Sometimes it's way over my head, other times it's just the shock value of the guest being interviewed that sucks me in.
