Does anyone feel like comedy podcasts have devolved into the most insufferable shit that you can listen to? I’ve been following this subreddit for a little while now, and it seems like the issues everyone has with Schaub is a microcosm for most peoples feeling towards the entire comedy podcasting scene.

I got out of podcasts for a couple years but I’m now getting back into them because my job now is pretty computer oriented so I can listen to stuff more frequently. I used to listen to YMH years ago but now that I’ve gone back to it I’m shocked at how unfunny and boring it’s become, like they’re still playing the same clips I saw then find almost 5 years ago. I tried to listen to Joe Rogan, and even before the pandemic he was pretty unrelatable but holy shit, all he talks about now is cancel culture and fucking ice-baths? All the people that he had on years ago that would talk interesting and crazy shit just spend the entire time sucking off Joe for how courageous he has been against “cancel culture”. Like I just want to hear about bigfoot, or ancient civilisations.

And it’s not just Joe, it seems every podcast in the LA circuit is just money grabbers complaining now. I tried to listen to a new Tim Dillon episode and was shocked that half the episode was fucking commercials (the old ad reads were the best part).

Even the stuff that’s not in the LA circuit is turning completely unlistenable. I feel like MSSP has just turned into just Shane talking about him trying to be friends with Drake, or his experiences partying with athletes and celebrities. I don’t even know what the fuck cumtown turned into, I can either listen to Stav sit on a high horse and talk down to everyone who calls in or how he likes to eat pussy, or Adam completely barred out of his mind try to interview celebrities no one cares about on a $500,000 set while Nick fails to be a TV show writer.

I know this is completely stupid to complain about, but honestly I just want something funny to listen to without being brow beat about “wokeism” or how their maid didn’t get them the right type of coffee. Like, yeah, I don’t think you should pump kids full of hormones or that there’s 199 genders but jesus christ, you don’t need to wave your political flags every 20 minutes. Who gives a fuck? I’m listening to this stuff so I can get a laugh at work over a stupid youtube video someone saw or a weird thing that happened to someone (that doesn’t include a mention about their bugatti or some shit).

Is there just too much money in podcasting? It seems like it went from just regular guys sitting down and bullshitting telling jokes, to guys who are just trying to become famous by any means necessary and everything being so contrived/over the top that it seems like a Kardashian wrote it.

EDIT: Thanks for all the suggestions,cats. Definitely have a lot of stuff to check out.
