Title: Podcasts about pirate radio or DXing?
Post by: mreleganza on April 11, 2023, 0449 UTC

Any recommendations, whether about history,  news,  or both?

Google brings up too many results where pirate radio is meant non-literally (in particular,  a podcast about East Carolina Pirate sports).

Ragnar Danistold's, Piratesweek, (Yeah, I know... I butchered that last name spelling.), podcasts was indeed a great one. Question is, was that even archived anywhere so that someone could download and enjoy today. Today though, you have Andrew Yoder's, Hobby Broadcasting Radio podcasts. Show #5 should be coming up around Tax Time. Oh!!!! Another one is Hobart Radio International, but what I get from that feed link is a document tree.   https://feeds.feedburner.com/archive/pOGc    That makes me wonder if HRI is still running today.

Thanks! Let me expand my question to ask for recommendations on shows/podcasts that are about DXing in general; news and/or discussion (besides Glenn Hauser's, which I already listen to).

Beyond Glenn Hauser? Well, I know where you can listen to a bunch on-air weekly. Ever listen to the 160M, 1860kHz AM, Gateway WA0RCR station every Saturday night? It's a little rough to listen too, with warm season upon us and lightning crashes in there, but most of those shows have websites to check out, when they announce them.  https://wa0rcr.mbohnhoffinc.com/   Hope that helps.
