    I listen to James Bonding and now that they're on DS9 Mission Log. The West Wing Weekly is also very good but I am way behind.

    @RickDeckard , excellent thread! As much as I would love to have time for some of the others on your lists, I only listen to/view Joe Rogan and that’s only every once in a while. I do like podcasts though and I think I’ll check out some of the ones on your list.
