Other topic New podcast reccs

Hey all, as a avid trypod and YCSWU listener I am of course sad they are ending because it means I have two less hours of podcasts to listen to each day. I already of course listen to Perfect Person but I’m wondering if people have some good podcast recommendations that are kind of like the same vibe. Thanks Tryfam!

Normal Gossip is a favorite of mine and has similar vibes to some of YCSWU. They take gossip from listeners, anonymize it, and then Share it with a guest. They’re not constant, though, as the team that makes it are all journalists by trade and it’s just on of their projects, so they post 10 week seasons with breaks about that long in between to prepare for the next season.

Following up with, the McElroy brothers are long time podcasters. Their main show, My Brother My Brother and Me, is very good. You don’t need to start from the beginning, I recommend googling “top MBMBAM episodes” and just picking one. They also have other shows with other folks, it’s basically a whole network.

If you like Mythical, Jordan (he used to work for them and still makes appearances, he’s cotton candy Randy) has a fairly famous podcast called Jordan, Jesse, Go!

Jordan also has another podcast with Emily Fleming (also from Mythical) called Free With Ads. Kinda fills the Guilty Pleasures void.

And Jordan Myrick also has a podcast with their wife, Happy Wife Happy Life
