Hey guys I'm looking for a new really funny and awesome gaming podcast to listen to. Suggestions?
I already listen to:
Bombcast (of course)
RebelFM (F-ing leprecauns)
Geekbox
Gamespy Debriefings
Major Nelson (on and off)
A little side question here, where are you or what do you do when listening to podcasts?
EDIT: Thanks for all your help guys! I now listen to Drunken gamers (drunk dials ftw), BEYOND!! and 2 chimps on a davenport.
Awesome/funny gaming podcasts?
I know IGN gets a lot of flack for various things, but Three Red Lights is easily the funniest podcast on the internets. It's hardly even game related anymore, but it's oh-so entertaining.
The Joystiq Podcast
Drunken Gamers Radio
4 Guys 1UP
The Gameinformer Show
Out of the Game
A Life Well Wasted
Rebel FM
The Geekbox
Gamers With Jobs
Retronauts
The Oddcast
I don't know if you've heard of this little known podcast called the Bombcast, but it is rather awesome.
Funny people. Funny interludes. Funny lists. Funny soundboard.
Good shit.
mega64 (video podcast)
joystiq podcast
gamers with jobs
drunk tank
idle thumbs
player one podcast
also ign's stuff is pretty good (BEYOND!!!!!)
PodToid by Destructoid is pretty good,if you like Jim Sterling and Anthony Burche, especially when they have Brad Nicholson on a
" TalkRadar by the guys at GamesRadar. Funny people. Funny interludes. Funny lists. Funny soundboard. Good shit. "Talkradar all the way
"Good call totally forgot Gamers With Jobs and Retronauts."
- More from the guys at 1Up: Retronauts (retro gaming focused) and Active Time Babble (RPG focused)
- Gamers With Jobs
- For funny, listen to the Smodcast, which is Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier's crude and hilarious rants and ravings
" yeah: bombcast, gamespy debriefing, 4 guys 1 up, life well wasted, kotaku radio, rebel fm ,geekbox (passively) anyone know of any decent british game podcasts? if they exist because the gamespot UK one is balls :p night night "I hate the main guys voice on that...not many people's voices make me wanna punch them in the face. He is one of them though...
Granted, there's no podcast that compares to the Bombcast in terms of quality, so you have to go in with that knowledge.
4 Guys 1 Up is pretty good. There's a lot of inside baseball industry talk, but that's why I like it.
Also, why do gamers always want funny podcasts? I run into this all the time. People always rate game podcasts on how funny they are. Why is that? You don't hear people talking about how funny their favorite movie or sports podcast is. I don't have anything against humor in my podcasts, but it's more of a bonus, not the main feature.
As far as what I do while listening... I either listen throughout the day while walking to classes, while working at my on-campus job as a computer lab supervisor, or while at home doing chores. With podcasts, I don't really listen to that much music anymore.
Other non-game podcasts to check out:
NPR's On the Media
This Week in Tech (TWiT)
This Week in Media (TWiM)
G4's Feedback
Radiolab
I've always been a huge fan of Retronauts but I liked it better with Scott Sharkey. I love Scott Sharkey's sense of humor, but now he's on the Oddcast, so check that one out.

The game chatter is secondary, especially news segments and industry babble (although game impressions can be very interesting).
The Mobcast at Bitmob.com doesn't get enough love. It's great.
Also, I heard the Adolescent Nerd Podcast is pretty awesome. You all should check it out.
I know people have already said it, but I just started listening to The Joystiq Podcast, and it cracks me up.
Primarily the bombcast for me but lately I've been checking out 4playerpodcast. They have tons of videos on youtube and broadcast live nightly on justintv

Mostly entertaining to watch and here their comments/jokes throughout. They've been playing NMH2, ME2, and oddly enough Call of Cthulu recently...

Wait, did they start up the podcast again or something?
Or are you just listening to old podcasts and being flip with meXD
Check out the Kfan/ video games weekly podcast. Its a really good weekly show. Its defiantly a different look rather than from normal gaming sites. The hosts, Charch, has a brother that works for MS and sometimes has some inside scoop, and his guest always include a guy from Game Informer(published here in MN) and sometimes guys like Chris Kluwe (Vikings Punter and huge Guitar Hero/ VG player). Lots of honesty and good phone calls from fans.
