Does anybody listen to any that are actually worthwhile? Recommend me!

The Best Show on WFMU is hilarious. Tom Scharpling is the host. Most of the show is spent playing gReat music, going off on long rants and getting angry/confused with his callers

Jon Wurster (Superchunk drummer) is a contributor and people like Ted Leo and Danielson are his best friends and regularly in with him.

Seriously, it's great.

Best Post Ever.

I was going to post something about them myself...The Best Show is the funniest thing in the world. Current favourites are Pudge and Barry Dworkin. And Gene Simmons' Toyota. It's all gold.
Good guys win!

I'll upload some examples later if I get the technology together...but you can listen to any number on shows at http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/BS
August 8, 2006 show is a nice introduction.

Again, best post ever.

The podcast from www.filmspotting.net is great for movie talk.
Real Time with Bill Maher is a good show for political (but also very funny) debate.
Mark Kermode's BBC podcast is good for movie talk too.

Just got around to downloading the last three weeks of shows...highlights...Tom admonishing Steve in North Hollywood for "Sweeeet"...The Foo Fighters fan singing "Please stick around" before starting to weep...The Wednesday Rockets song "I Was My Own Father"...heard Todd Palin call really late last night, immediately classic but need to listen again, but I lost my shit when he pronounced the bassist from Metallica's name...

"Crack a dictionary much, don't sound like you do"
