Grunt Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 (edited) Anyone listen to podcasts? I would love to find a real podcast that is entertaining but reflective of Mormon values. Every time I think I find one I hear an episode that makes me raise an eyebrow. I’d prefer it to be about Mormon doctrine and/or culture. If not, let’s start one.

zil Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Right, @pam can convince the MGF folk to have a MormonHub podcast. Different forum members can guest star each week. We can talk about the ink, er scripture, of the week; our favorite paper, er post; why people post things out of left field... Why the Mormon version of left field is so tame... Oh, which flavor of Jell-o is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentOne Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 So, @zil can do the tattoo episode. @MormonGator can tell about compound living. @mirkwood takes the Halloween special. What other topics should we cover? mirkwood and zil 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listen to those. I'm looking for something that is more modern and open dialog. I like "The Cultural Hall", but every once in awhile they go off on a tangent about what the church should be doing. I'll likely find that everywhere, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just_A_Guy Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 (edited) LDS Perspectives, Leading LDS, and Maxwell Institute are all usually pretty solid. (MI often brings in non-LDS commentators, but it’s interesting to see how our own perspectives blend in with—or stand out from—other approaches). My memory could be off, but I think our own @pam was a guest on Leading LDS sometime in the last year or two?

I met with the founder of it and we were going to set a date but so far it hasn't happened. I think he has been pretty busy with other podcasts that he's been doing.

SilentOne Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) And I guess on the lifestyle front, @anatess2 can talk about love and @Carborendum and @Vort can discuss homeschooling? I haven't listened to many podcasts in the past, but I have been thinking of starting to listen to gospel-related stuff while exercising, and this thread may prove helpful for that.

SilentOne Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Rare Possessions Podcast I'm not sure how well this fits into what you're looking for, but one of my facebook friends posted it and I figure at least somebody here might appreciate it. And if I post here I'll probably be able to find the link again more quickly than if I have to hunt it down again on facebook a month from now. "The Rare Possessions Podcast will dig into the archives at Book of Mormon Central to find rare, and valuable works that focus on the Book of Mormon. Each each a new episode will feature a brief interview with archivist, Jared Riddick, about the next chapter of the book being presented, followed by host and narrator, Nick Galieti, reading a chapter of the book in audio book format. Stay tuned each week for the next chapter, and to learn more about these lesser-well known books that teach about the Book of Mormon."

Just_A_Guy Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 So, there’s a brand-spanking-new podcast called “True Blue Mormon”, available via YouTube, whose raison d’etre seems to be as a counterpunch to the leftist Mormon blogosphere. Only two episodes out so far, but they sound promising. Midwest LDS, SpiritDragon and Grunt 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiritDragon Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 https://player.fm/series/the-joseph-smith-papers I listen to these when I work out. They have been pretty interesting to me and are church friendly. I also really have enjoyed listening to articles from mormon interpreter. Pretty well all of their articles can be downloaded as mp3's for ease of listening. This makes them great for me to listen to while cleaning the house.
