I've got a lot of podcasts that I listen to that are funny but not many that can actually get a laugh out of me. My Dad Wrote A Porno is probably the only one that's had me in uncontrollable fits of laughter. The Dollop and Last Podcast have had episodes on and off that have managed. It doesn't matter if they're not a "comedy" podcast per se, I just want a good laugh.

Well There’s Your Problem - while the nominal topic is engineering disaster, it’s generally irreverent in a black humor kind of way and has a sarcastic sense of humor about most of the people involved in each disaster, especially when the reason for the disaster is political bullshit

Roz learning about RBG dying and going full Joker in real time in the middle of the 9/11 ep is a top 10 iconic podcast moment

I think my top three are that, Chapo Trap House of Saud, and the horse viscera discussion, no particular order

Trillbilly Workers Party is pretty good

The Dollop is easily my top choice for that. 1908 New York to Paris Car Race is one of the funniest things I’ve ever listened to in my entire life.

Trashfuture - It’s Chapo but ukkk plus reviews of incredibly stupid or evil startups.

Worst of All Possible Worlds - Case studies in the pop culture of a dying empire. Some real laugh out loud episodes are 38 - The Gang Exploits a Teenager’s Death (Dear Evan Hansen), 62 - Minions, and 74 - The Boss Baby. They also review episodes of Adventures in Odyssey, a long running evangelical children’s radio play, and those episodes are always great.
