Good lord...all that sports talk would drive me insane.

I usually have to switch back and forth, but most of the sports-leaning podcasts tend to either touch on cultural issues or speak about sports in a much more intelligent way.

For example, Whitlock is really insightful and has had a few great discussions on his podcast about the prison culture in sports and about how usage of the N-word as an endearing term needs to be stopped. Simmons has really good non-sports guests on his show, too.

Slate's podcast is sports-focused but an extremely intelligent discussion with an injection of politics and history.
