\"TopI just got word that The Music Biz Weekly Podcast<\/a> is in some very lofty company in this list of Top Seven Podcasts by Phil Johnson and Roadside Attraction. Brian Thompson<\/a> and I are very honored to be included with such names as Marc Maron, Adam Corolla and TEDTalks.<\/p>\n

1. WTF from Marc Maron<\/a> \u2013 Ok, every comic and his brother listens to this podcast.\u00a0 But it\u2019s for good reason.\u00a0 Marc does really really good interviews with comedians.\u00a0 Despite the fact that it\u2019s labeled as a comedy podcast, it doesn\u2019t really try to be funny.\u00a0 It\u2019s more about delving deep into the psyche of comedians and what makes them tick.\u00a0 And then when he does a live podcast with an audience, the comedy rolls out and is really funny.\u00a0 The bottom line is that you\u2019re listening to a really good conversation between intelligent people.\u00a0 That\u2019s a good thing.<\/p>\n

2. Adam Corolla \u2013 Again, something from the top of the charts, but for good reason.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been a fan of Adam Corolla since Love Line.\u00a0 He\u2019s the type of guy that can expound on just about any topic for 4 or 5 minutes, which is amazing to me.\u00a0 If he were your next door neighbor, he\u2019d be annoying as hell.\u00a0 And despite the fact that he and his cohorts talk very free-form, there\u2019s still a structure and plan for the show.\u00a0 That\u2019s what\u2019s missing from so many other podcasts.\u00a0 A plan.\u00a0 Present a piece of work to me.\u00a0 Adam Corolla hits a happy medium with this one.<\/p>\n

3. Mousetalgia <\/a>– If you\u2019ve been reading my blog for more than 5 minutes, you know I\u2019m a big Disney dork.\u00a0 So listening in to uber-fans chew the fat on the latest updates from Disneyland is a good thing for me.\u00a0 And again, while they\u2019ll do some free-form discussion, it all falls into a plan of \u201chere\u2019s what we\u2019re doing on the show today\u201d.\u00a0 Listening to Adam Corolla is like listening to a radio show.\u00a0 Mousetalgia is more like chatting with friends about something I\u2019m passionate about.\u00a0 They do this show in my hometown too.\u00a0 I\u2019m hoping I can do a guest spot on there at some point. \":)\"<\/p>\n

4. CD Baby Music Discovery Podcast<\/a> \u2013 I\u2019m always looking for new interesting music to listen to.\u00a0 CDBaby.com is probably the world\u2019s largest repository of independently released music, so it\u2019s interesting to hear their recommendations.\u00a0 Do I like everything they pick?\u00a0 Of course, not.\u00a0 But I have discovered some really cool stuff like Matt Henshaw<\/a>.<\/p>\n

5. The Smart Passive Income Podcast<\/a> \u2013 I\u2019m a huge believer in multiple streams of income and Pat Flynn runs a great podcast about developing passive income on the net.\u00a0 I know, you\u2019re thinking \u201cScammer!\u00a0 Spammer!\u00a0 Squammer!\u201d \u2013 Ok, maybe not that last one.\u00a0 But this dude is not your average \u201cplow ads down your throat\u201d type net marketing guy.\u00a0 He\u2019s very generous with good info and low-key on his sales stuff.\u00a0 Better yet, he makes money in other areas besides just net marketing.<\/p>\n

6. The Music Biz Weekly Podcast<\/a> \u2013 Michael Brandvold and Brian Thompson are both in the music promo trenches daily and have a lot of good insight into what artists should be doing to build their fan base.\u00a0 And it\u2019s stuff that performers of any shade should be doing.\u00a0 They do fall a bit into the trap of \u201cwell, what should we talk about today?\u201d\u00a0 But since they\u2019re living their subject 24\/7, they can get away with talking off the tops of their heads a little more.<\/strong><\/p>\n

7. TEDTalks<\/a> \u2013 These are audio podcasts of speeches from TED conferences<\/a>.\u00a0 Brilliant people talking about interesting things.\u00a0 If you\u2019re like me and love to hear interesting, well thought out ideas, definitely dig into these.\u00a0 A few of them made me want to batter the speaker like a corn dog, shove a giant foam #1 finger on their head and tell them to lighten up.\u00a0 But for the most part these are really interesting talks.<\/p>\n
