Cracked is easily one of the funniest podcasts out there. Love the personalities of the podcasters. It's funny, but at the same time entertaining and educating.

Generally really interesting, especially interviews
Whereas the discussions sometimes drag, I find the interviews incredibly interesting. Always learning a new perspective on something. No need to be self-deprecating, the guests are allowed to talk and it's great!

Great perspective on pop culture
A friend introduced me to the Cracked Podcast in mid-2014 and I think I listened to the entire back catalogue within the next month. Now I eagerly await for every Wednesday to roll around so I can get my new fix. Love Jason Pargin's thoughts on most topics discussed.
My favourite podcasts so far are the Economics of Brainwashing and one of the early podcasts that discussed privacy rights. Both offer great insight into rather complex topics. Would definitely recommend this podcast if you are looking for interesting discussions on everything pop.

Funny, interesting, thoughtful, awesome!
I've never been into podcasts all that much, but this podcast totally turned me around. Cracked is somehow able to discuss really interesting and thoughtful topics in such a way as will regularly make you laugh out loud. I'm a great fan and never miss an episode!
