Six Dota 2 podcasts that tickle our ears

posted by Smyke,

The International 2018 is over and the next Major is still a few weeks away. While we were used to watching new tournaments last season, we can give our eyes a rest and use our ears by tuning in to some great Dota 2 podcasts. Which is your favourite?

Position Six Podcast

Let's start with a relatively new addition: The Position Six Podcast on SoundCloud is only three episodes old so far, but has some famous guests — such as Peter 'ppd' Dager and Aydin 'INSaNIA' Sarkohi.

In the current episode Forward Gaming manager Jack 'KBBQ' Chen talks with host Dan Offen about his role.

Hot Cox

The HotCox Podcast by Hot_Bid and Dakota of Beyond the Summit is one of the most well-known Dota 2 podcasts in the scene.

They always invite professional players onto the show to talk about the their game, teams or recent updates and shuffles. Last month saw the 24th edition released.

What the DUCK?

If you want a video podcast on a more regular basis, MoonduckTV could be a more interesting choice (they have audio versions as well). They are currently up to Episode 43.

The famous MoonduckTV invites experts onto their podcast to talk about everything from memes to actual gameplay and the latest news — obviously in the typically funny Moonduck way.

Fourth Spirit

If you're actually more into in-depth analysis and theorycrafting about heroes, then Fourth Spirit is the perfect address for you to hit up. It is the spiritual successor of the famous Defense of the Patience podcast.

This week on Teach Me Tuesday, @ayupbeedub & @ProudDota go over the most recent mini patch, 7.19d, and all the nerfs it brings! Also on today's episode, Pick vs Counter Pick and a multitude of listener questions are answered.

If you're not that much into deep-down theorycrafting, then "The Internet's Casual Dota 2 Podcast" could be in your interest.

WeLikeDota talks not just about patches and tournaments, but also includes fun and casual stuff.

Thorin's Reflections

Thorin is mostly known for conducting interviews with CS:GO or LoL pro players, but sometimes he expands his podcast into our world of Dota 2. The best example is his interview with TI8 winner Sebastien 'Ceb' Debs, which ended up being a FIVE-HOUR-LONG discourse.
