Podcasts for your listening pleasure.

So, I’m a huge fan of podcasts… if you want to call them that. Very rarely do I actually use the podcast app. I usually just listen online in various ways. Anyway, I’m a huge fan of “This American Life” and “Radiolab”. More recently, I started listening to “Love + Radio”. Here’s a few contributions and if you’d like to post the podcasts you listen to… GREAT!

WARNING – You should probably use headphones to listen to all of these.

Story about an Olympian who robbed over 20 banks on a bicycle:

Story about a guy who fixed MAJOR boxing fights. Great story about a degenerate VERY much in the ilk of Sam Rothstein (My favorite movie character of all time).

Story about a black piano player who befriends members of the KKK and causes then to leave the Klan:

I think I need to start donating money to public radio because this is some of the best entertainment out there.

Another GREAT podcast is called “Everything is Stories”. Here is a great episode about a guy who worked on the crew of “Cops.” Sounds like the crew was put in some pretty sketchy situations:

This is a must listen:

Act I is about pitching investors on tech ideas. Dude gets a meeting with Chris Sacca and blows it. There are definitely a few great takeaways… especially for people who haven’t ever been in sales. A great reminder that it’s about the product… but it’s kind of not. It’s more about the passion with which you pursue your product.

Edit: You DON’T need headphones for this one.

Awesome Snap Judgment about AI. No headphones required. By the way… Snap Judgment is QUICKLY becoming my favorite podcast.
