Webcomics PODCASTS

[plughead]

Hey everyone

I'm a HARDCORE podcast junkie. I'm into tons of webcomic/art/illustration/design stuff, and I want to keep discovering more.

What stuff do you cats listen to?

Here's my list. All of these are free podcasts that are easy to find in the iTunes Store:

• Alpha Rant

• Art & Story

• Big Illustration Party Time

• Pond to Pond

• TGT Webcomics

• Webcomic Beacon

• Webcomics Weakly



NON-WEBCOMIC-RELATED:

• Smodcast

• You Look Nice Today

• 43 Folders


VIDEO PODCASTS

• Terry White's Adobe Creative Suite Podcast

• Layers TV

• WebDesign TV

• Webcomics Weakly

Haha, is that a typo or a subtle dig?

Anyhow, everything I listen to, you've already listed. Except the Savage Love podcast, which is less about webcomics and more about Dan Savage giving sex and relationship advice to people with often raunchy or creepy problems. Totally NSFW, which is funny because I listen to it at work.

I co-host a webcomics podcast with Chris Flick of Capes n Babes and Rob Chandler of I'm Not Bob.  It's called The Lightbox and you can find it on iTunes!

I also enjoy Tall Tales Radio.

And Chris is actually a really nice guy I've known for a long time from the old Webcomics.com forums... but I just can't seem tog et him in here. He's told me he's too busy. Hopefully he'll find the time at some point. But I imagine the podcast is excellent because he's a funny guy and you seem pretty all right yourself there Matt. What does the "Lightbox" name reference? A lightbox is for like tracing stuff right?

A great general comics and pop-culture podcast, that does occasionally talk a bit about webcomics, is the Major Spoilers podcast. It is has become my favorite podcast to listen to while I work. If you are a huge comic book geek like I am, you'll love it. Also, if you're into Dungeons & Dragons, check out their sister podcast, Critical Hit. All good stuff.

And I think it just started updating again, the Comics Coast to Coast podcast is another decent one.

Guess I'm pretty tired. I read that as "Doc Savage". Now THAT would be entertaining.

I can be a bit picky when it comes to podcasts. The only one I really listen to is The Webcomic Beacon, and even then one of the hosts kind of gets on my nerves, but I like that they pretty much stick to the topic they are supposed to be discussing, with minimal bad jokes and attempting to sound super intellectual about comics. Others I've tried one episode and turn it off midway through, because they get off topic and start ranting about their personal lives, etc. Any suggestions?
