Slow Burn (podcast) - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org
In its first two seasons, Slow Burn looked back at two of the biggest stories of the late 20th century—the Watergate scandal and the impeachment of Bill Clinton. Season three tackles another: the murders of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G. The story takes place at a moment when hip-hop was taking over pop culture, and a former theater kid from the Bay Area and a one-time crack dealer from Brooklyn were changing the music forever. They went from friends to enemies. And they ended up victims of a deadly rivalry between two rap scenes.
How is it that two of the most famous performers in the world were murdered within a year of each other—and their killings were never solved?

I listened. It was ok, not really anything that hasn't been reported already. It was well done though.
The previous seasons were more interesting to me, Watergate and Clinton's impeachment, because I didn't know that much about them.
I'm also currently listening to Atlanta Monster because of Mindhunter
This season it's DC Sniper
Here's another vote for...

I need to get caught up on past Heat Rocks episodes. They do a good job analyzing past classic albums. Listened to the ATCQ and Outkast episodes last night.
Any good additional recommendations of late?
I'm very curious on listening to regular folk lately just to see how its done without money experience big production etc
Just as a learning tool
I found this one
A ridiculous podcast on spotify
I'm not sure what it is? But i ferl like with work?
They may have something
Agreed. There's so many podcasts to choose from these days. I like the indy & amateur ones too - given the hosts are often self-taught (and doing a pretty damn good job at it too). I like when they shoutout other podcasts too ... spreading the love ... "If you like this show ... check out these ones"-type thing ...
Its crazy
When you the damn near CINEMATIC production on sone of these podcasts in a way its a little unsettling
It sounds perfect
Im not saying thats a bad thing but its not what i think podcasts were REALLY meant to sound like
I like Bomani
one mic clear no echo great sound quality but not perfect and just smart funny heart felt stories and connections
I like the espn hoop collective
Same thing not OVERLY produced but still entertaining listen.
Juan Epstein NOW? damn sounds so freaking professional again not a bad thing but it does change the experience
Malcolm gladwell, most of the ringer stuff is so damn polished
I think that is actually INTIMIDATING to anyone who wants to start NOW.
Agreed - so many people doing it well & professionally-sounding. I'm always baffled at some of the episode file sizes too, as they vary so much (even when sound quality doesn't seem to differ too much between shows/platforms). I'm not sure of all the equipment or gear everyone's using ... and how audio is recorded, compressed, uploaded and so on ... but damn ... I've seen filesizes vary anywhere from 5mb to nearly 2GB. Crazy, lol.
For some reason some 1 hour - 1.5 hour shows will be 20 - 40mb. Then I've accidentally downloaded my regular podcasts from some sites and they'll be 800mb (for 10 minutes), or most recently a 1-hour show which was just over 1.8GB. I was like WTF is going on? The 800mb and 1.8GB file sizes are typically 60 - 105mb when they've uploaded similar stuff over the years.

Shaka - any shows you listen to regularly?
I'm currently catching up on some recent episodes of The Corner.
They cover boxing, MMA, hiphop & pop culture, and pro wrestling.
Co-hosted by Kel Dansby & Andreas Hale.
EXACTLY
I think not to get all techy in this thread but that WILL become a problem soon
There will be a need for some form of consistency
And also in length
Not EVERYONE needs an hour, i know YOU know this.
I would rather SHORTER episodes that were released on time CONSISTENTLY instead of damn rambling nerd gasms.
Having said that
Fatman beyond could be 2 hours and i aint complaining
I heard good things about this.
Any good additional recommendations of late?
I listen to karen Hunter...her radio show is on youtube(clips anyway) and I listen to her podcast on spotify
So I heard the "Stuff you need to know" podcast about Sammy Davis Jr. the other day...very sad
I think Ive already said Bomani Jones and the Daily from the NY times, but I'm going to go back through this thread and pick up some more...

Dissect on Spotify is musical analysis podcast. Breaking down everything from Kanye to Frank Ocean to Lauren Hill. Don't sleep.
Props for the Karen Hunter suggestion.....just started checking some of her podcasts out, the installments where the broke down episodes of "The Watchmen" were off the hook!, full of very insightful discussions...
"The Model Health show" with Shawn Stevenson is another podcast i listen to
