Podcasts seem to be the latest rage as blogs and Youtube videos become the norm. The community at Creative Density has been well ahead of this trend with some of us listening to podcasts since 2004. I guess we are just cutting edge individuals. This doesn’t mean we have great taste but it does mean we have a lot of opinions on which ones we like. Here is a list of our favorite shows that have made us laugh as a father and his two sons learn how to play Dungeons and Dragons, learned from others on how to pitch investors, to deep dives in World War One, and surprising interviews with corrupt cops.
