Android Central Podcast on Thursday Nights at 9 pm central.
This show is hosted by Phil Nickinson whose also the Editor of Android Central. He's joined by Jerry Hildenbrand, Micky Paplon and Corey Streater. I have to be honest and say that this is by far my favorite Android Podcast. These four gentleman have a great interaction with each other. They each have some specialized knowledge from Jerry's Linux background to Micky knowing everything about the way the cell systems actually work. Phil was a newspaper journalist before becoming a blogger and it shows in the way he reports stories and his Editorial policies for the site. The Android Central Podcast is in my opinion the most professional one of tjem all. If you are only going to listen to one Android Podcast thisould be my recommendation. 4.5/5
Android Guys Monday Night Podcast
This is the longest running Android Podcast and its not a bad one in my opinion. The host Scott Webster also writes for Cnet and runs the Android Guys site. The panel discusses many of the most relevent Android stories of the week and for the most part they do it fairly well. The sound quality unfortunately suffers greatly on this show from week to week. Scott sometimes seems like be has a hard time keeping the show on focus and to the point but some of his cohorts are very knowledgeable. The Android guys Monday night podcast is like a slightly less polished version of the Android Central Podcast and worth a listen. 3.73/5
Android Guys Thursday Nights.
AGTN as they call themselves is the Android Podcast for those interested in getting the most of their device. This show is hosted by Ray and is really interesting to those interested in rooting and hacking their phone. It's a bit more amateur than Android Central and the Monday night show but still a good listen. They have interviews with app developers that are pretty good and give you a good insight to what a developer goes through and what they are working on. 3/5
Cnet Android Atlas Weekly
The sound quality in this show is the best of them all. You can tell when listening that this is done in a studio not a home Skype job. That being said in my opinion its the most boring of them all. The hosts don't even come accross as fans of Android. Its important to be enthusiastic about your subject in a podcast like this that is targeted towards fans. I listen to Android Atlas weekly sometimes but only if I don't have any other tech podcasts in my que. 2.5/5
