Hey all, I love a good podcast and am wondering what recommendations the MFP community have. My favourites (non-health and fitness related) are Criminal; Baggage Reclaim Sessions and The Untold, but I don't yet know of any good health/weight-loss/fitness related ones. What are your favourites, of any genre?

    Sigma Nutrition is a good one.

    Fitcast is more exercise focused, but has a ton of episodes and introduced me to lots of good people.

    Welcome to Night Vale. A radio broadcast from a small town trapped in a Lovecraftian horror pocket of reality. It's weird and fun.

    And Thrilling Adventure Hour, an old timey styled radio theater show. This has several different series based on different styles of old shows. Most of them pretty funny. My favorites are Beyond Belief, about a happily married couple of very wealthy, occult fighting alcoholics. Sparks Nevada, Martial from Mars (mi inlaws live in Sparks, lol), and Captain Lazerbeam a Superhero.

    Also started on The Orbiting Human Circus of the Air, which is done bybthe Night Vale people. It's....odd, but interesting. I've only just started though, so we'll see where it goes.

    Do you like all the Minnow Beats Whale podcasts - Tanis, Rabbits and The Black Tapes? I always feel overwhelmed by how many Night Vales there are, but I'm going to give them a try, thanks!

    If anyone remembers the old late-night call in radio show Loveline with Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew Pinsky, it's spirit lives on in the Adam and Dr. Drew podcast.

    Never heard of those? I'll look them up. If you do Night Vale, go in order. Each season has it's own storyline, and they get more involved as time goes on. And each season refers to events in previous seasons.

    Non-health related - I love the Morbid Curiosity podcasts. Really informative and factual podcasts about a variety of topics about which people have morbid curiosity. Everything from the Bermuda Triangle to head shrinking, medieval torture to Lizzy Borden, urban legends and ghost and ghoul stories and the facts behind them. It's very cool.

    Sounds great! A bit like Lore, if you know that one? My podcast list is looking pretty epic :)
