- KennyBania, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Nobody Likes Onions (www.nobodylikesonions.com) is hilarious.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I don't see Nobody Likes Onions on there.. A 300lbs Diabetic man saying he's going to put his dick in a 2 year old girl's mouth.. and she also has Down's Syndrome? That's GREAT podcasting.
- MadMan459, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Umm...
"So, without further ado and in no particular order, here's our list of the Top 10 Podcast Episodes of 2005:"
No Particular Order means that there is no difference between diggnation being #2 and TWiT being #10. It's cool they made the list though. - AttroPheed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"meh, it's a good list for the dry techie side of podcasting"
we all know how "techie" the catholic church is. :) - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cool site, and a good listing.
"Finding Digg.com was one of the highlights of my 2005."
Indeed. :c) - thidranki, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0way to go Digg, Kevin, and Alex!
- subzero9988, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nice list of podcast I did not know about, and kudos to digg for being number 2. =)
- haloevo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0#2 > all other Podcasts in that list.
- toyotaboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0what, no dawn and drew show? they've only been number 1 or 2 since podcasting started, surely there was a best episode in there somewhere, especially since they podcast everyday, unlike most podcasts that only come out once a week. I call "biased"!!
- nmd4eva, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Awesome list! What a great website!
- Nation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Twit #27 is better then Twit #30, though 30 is probably their second best so far.
- Erroneus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0dl.tv is great also
- odysseus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Anyone have a direct link to the Pope coronation podcast?
- diggnationdevon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I wanted diggnation to be #1
- cubbieco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Where's the Tiki bar?
- ctomasi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hey, I'm honored to be mentioned in the list and part of TWiT #30. It will definitely go down as a highlight in my year. -- Chuck Tomasi - host of Freestyle, Technorama, and Gmail Podcast at www.chuckchat.com
- abhibeckert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The actual "top 10 podcasts" are going to be unique for every person visiting the site... For me I've seen 10, 8 and 2, and they so got it backwards. 10 was a great episode, 8 was pretty average, and 2 nearly put me to sleep (worst diggnation episode ever if you ask me).
I can think of 5 or 6 episodes that I enjoyed far more... A top 10 episodes is totally useless you limit it to a particular target audience. - i6koi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0isn't this just one person/group's opinion? hardly a fair review of every podcast out there, right? I mean, I'm sure I have my own top 10 somewhere based on the podcasts I've listened to...
- sudonim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I second BMan's vote for The Ricky Gervais show. I discovered that while looking for a podcast to listen to at work (gotta listen to something while doing data entry) and could hardly keep my mouth closed the whole time I was listening to it. Can't wait till we get Extra's up here on digital cable!
- Pogue_Mahone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I just watched the clip show and busted a gut laughing.
Hey Kevin, was that downright edible looking bird slow roasted over an open wood based coal fire? - sadsac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I love twit & digg, and this review is fairly well written - but it's just a blog entry. I'm writing my own blog entry proclaiming myself "Best Actor". This probably won't carry as much clout as the Best Actor award issued by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
- redbeard36, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good list..a little dry though.
I'll also put in a big thumbs up for the Ricky Gervais show. Only three episodes so far so it'd be hard to pick a best. I thought it'd be another warmed over celebrity hype show, but it's just about the funniest audio show, podcast or otherwise. - Chango_Family, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I nominate Lugradio in the top 10 internet tech shows (they hate the word podcast).
Where else will you have a host say that any time people use the word 'blogosphere' you should stab them in the face or that blogs and podcasts are cool but its the wankers that go on and on about them and the blog culture and the podcast culture that are annoying?
Open source, witty, british (the accents make them seem more intelligent than they really are) and totally unabashed. - dreamkatcha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can't understand why Dawn and Drew didn't make the list either. How could it not even get a mention when it includes some silly bint saying 'inkernet' all the time and trying to be cute in between talking about what she had for breakfast. Then there are the episodes that sound like 2.00am, half asleep drunk talk... well that covers all of them come to think of it. It's an absolute travesty of justice for this inspirational and informative show not to be recognised.
- mesoed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Definately a bias, but it's difficult to pick out the best episodes of thousands of podcasts. Pretty well done though using current events, tech bias.
One I'd add is A Podcast Christmas Carol. http://apodcastchristmascarol.org Huge effort by some 50 podcasters including Leo Laporte, Adam Curry, David Lawrence. - turgiddahlia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The Gervais podcast is the way of the future - quality stuff.
- UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0" I call "biased"!!"
well duh. you should make your own. I'd love to see a bunch of top 10 lists, all with their own biases. - charlie55, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i dont like this guy's writing style:
"It's an incredibly addictive site as its astronomical growth is evidence of."
ending a sentence with a preposition is bad style, yall! - bloodguard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Way too much gratuitous and annoying lip smacking on diggnation. I mean every now and then fine. But pretty much every sentence begins with a loud, wet globbing *smack* noise.
Someone needs to make a podcast about how to podcast. - Will9898, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0And what about Into Your Head?
All those ones where Neal O'Carroll talks to his cats ad naseum about nothing, surely deserve recognition?
Irish podcast radio shows rock, but it seems the only way to get noticed is get Leo Laporte of Board and talk tech stuff, or else do a Howerd Stern soundalike with a couple of kids swearing and talking about "news" that you've already heard about in then other identical podcast on the same day!
http://IntoYourHead.com - Digisurfer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm a fan of TWiT, Security Now (Gibson needs to lay off the coffee lol), and Diggnation. DL.TV (Digital Life) with Patrick Norton which someone mentioned above is good too, as is PowerUser.TV which is another good one for nerds that I doubt many have heard of.
- Muzical84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Not only were diggnation and TWiT on there, but so was Catholic Insider, which was the first podcast I ever heard (mainly because I ran an iTunes store search on Catholic before Computers.) On the whole, a decent list, as far as I'm concerned.
- M4tt3r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0meh.... Some of those are seriously lame.
And I can't believe FTL ain't up there, that's some BS.
http://freetalklive.com/ - UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0what about the Distorted View show when Jeanette from the PK and J show read the ***** piss and cum story?
Or Keith and the Girl #78
"Grooming: Not just for Queers" with the tagline : "And I'm not just some weirdo wiping my ***** with my hand." - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0w00t :)
- mentor972, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Where's Urban Coffee?
http://www.urbancoffee.net - kokobaroko, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The REAL podcasts I like :
http://www.rocketboom.com/vlog/archives.html
http://www.mobuzz.com/uk/
http://www.thepostshow.com/ - hiro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Having lstened to no end of *****, the only ones I still listen to are TWiT (and spinoffs), Diggnation, Dawn & Drew and Ricky Gervais. Life's too short to waste on the rest
- biometricks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"meh.... Some of those are seriously lame.
And I can't believe FTL ain't up there, that's some BS.
http://freetalklive.com/ "
I agree. - diggydog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Great List.
- smickles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0nice, but the tiki bar tv with the russian is the best podcast i've see/heard ever.
- thund3rstruck, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I tried to like diggnation.. but it was just too boring. My favorite podcast is 2600's 'Off the Hook' http://www.2600.com and hack-a-day's podcast http://www.hackaday.com
- blackbelt88, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm a fan of TWiT 18. the famous "I get NO spam!" episode.
- coolcoolglasses, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1meh, it's a good list for the dry techie side of podcasting
