5times is reasonably interesting when Molby is on it.

I cannot abide the Anfield Wrap ones - full of massive RAWK bores and frustrated music critics - but it's popular with many.

I used to enjoy the TAW ones a couple of seasons back, but on the back of our title run they seem to have got tonnes of subscribers & are now under the belief they are some kind of ultra superfans who also have impeccable taste in culture.
It's become akin to listening to try hard wannabe hipsters discussing beard oils. I went to download one for the first time a few weeks ago when bored only to discover it was for premium subscription only, so assume they've moved to a pay model for at least some content, which is frankly ridiculous.

The ones that are on the radio are free, the pre-match friday and monday post match afaik.
Totally agree though, I don't think I even listen to them properly anymore. They could do everyone a favour and stop talking about / playing music in their football podcasts.
The Guardian football podcast is alright as a general all teams discussion, it is hosted by the guy who's name escapes me. The main guy from channel 4's Serie A coverage years ago.
Didi Hamann and Danny Murphy are on talksport a lot too. Hamann does a couple of days a week 10 or 11am until 1pm with Colin Murray. It can be entertaining.
Fame is a dangerous thing
Hope Jim Boardman isn't found dead, full of drugs, in a bathtub in Paris.
Jim Stiff As A Boardman.
(Actually, from the look of him, there's very little danger of Jim being found in a bath at all.)
James Richardson. I don't always agree with all the journalists on the Guardian Football Weekly podcast but it's rarely uninteresting and Richardson is a very good host, often very amusing. I like the Football Ramble as well. I used to listen to The anfield wrap but as everyone else has said its full of itself now and has been for a long time.
I also listen to the five times podcast though they don't put it out that regularly.
Bath of lard?
Well, hardly anyone sits in a bath of baked beans these days.
The Guardian one is the best. Funny and pretty well-informed.
I don't like the Times one. Marcotti gets on my nerves and I can't abide Allyson Rudd. In general it's just achingly PC and humourless.
I've not found a good dedicated LFC one. Agree with the consensus on TAW, it's annoying now. Why does Liverpool seem to breed these kind of perrennial student Trotskyist music bores?

Give the Anfield Wrap a go, most of the contributors are very insightful, especially the guy who manages Marine and Steve Graves from The Echo.
I think you guys are being a bit harsh on the Anfield Wrap. I enjoy their post match reviews but definitely can do without the 8,327 other podcasts they put out per week.
100% in agreement their music and culture snobbery is annoying.
They have some insightful football guests though and I like hearing their takes on Liverpool. There are two guys I can't stand though, don't know their names only can identify them by their obnoxious voices.
-Football Weekly is good but don't expect much in the way of in depth analysis or tactics.
-Second Captains football from the Irish Times is general pretty quality.
-The Football Ramble is great for the lulz

The opening question to each football podcast is beyond annoying. Maybe it's because I don't understand their references half the time but is it really necessary to have a five minute discussion about everyone's favorite type of biscuit at the start of a footy podcast?
I particularly used to hate it when they did podcasts drunk.
Christ is there anything more tedious than a bunch of drunk mates 'bantering'.

You're right, those were the worst!
There's also the Red Room (Graem Kelly et al) :
