Continuing adventures in being a few years behind the curve

So, hey, after all my many insistences that I just do not listen well enough to enjoy podfic or podcasts, it turns out that I actually kind of enjoy running (very slowly) while people talk about geeky/fannish stuff in my ears.

(Podfic turns out to be a little problematic for running purposes because I get involved in the story and can't wait until the next time I go running for more of it and then whoops I just spent all my free time for a few days rereading Stealing Harry and it's not even time for my biannual occasion of falling down the well and losing a week to HP fic. And I'm still not sure how I would do with podfic of a story I'm not already familiar with, because I do tend to zone out and miss bits.)

Anyway, so: rec me podcasts? I already have SF Squeecast and Writing Excuses, but I know there are some slash-specific fancasts? Or used to be, at least, have they trailed off? Anyway, please rec me things!

Definitely Slash Report, as noted above. They've just wound up their second season. It's like being at a room party at a slash con.

Someone recc'd a Leverage podcast on your LJ. That'd be The Leverage 10, which is official and features John Rogers, Chris Downey, various writers/production staff, and sometimes cast members. For a fannish take, try The Long Con. Both are available on iTunes.

Made of Fail is a long-running fan-oriented podcast that ranges from tv/movies to comics to video games and more. The Twilight-centric reviews, featuring Cleolinda Jones, are not to be missed. (iTunes)

I've got a soft spot for I Hate/Love Remakes, which looks at (surprise!) movies that have been remade, with in-depth reviews of both (or more, sometimes) versions. They've covered everything from Psycho to Godzilla to Ocean's 11 to One Missed Call to Charade to Miracle on 34th Street -- I love the range.
