You guys must of listened to some pretty bad podcasts to have such a negative perspective on them. It is no different then television. I like maybe 1 or 2 shows on FOX but that does not mean the entire channel is garbage. Now TBS on the other hand...
Don't care for podcasts on that subject. Any subject, really. The content is my biggest gripe, but really, it's more that it isn't a faster way to get that info. 10 minutes of reading will get me through 4 hours of podcast. The entertainment aspect is filler, and is rarely actually entertaining. I don't like to be as negative as I've been in these topics regarding videos and podcasts, but I believe that they are oversaturated in existence, overlapping too heavily in content, and largely devoid of engaging personality, as in order to be different from the copy/pasted news they report, they have to inject a sizable dose of hyperbolic opinion. It's like listening to a series of the worst, slapped together documentaries designed to make living off of hobbyists who have a tough time finding conversation about their interests in day to day life. I know that's a generalization, but enough attempts at enjoying these things has led me to this opinion. Sorry to be so negative on the subject.
