Lost Podcasts

Hosted by Lost Podcasts

An anonymous archivist's YouTube channel dedicated to preserving and sharing episodes of defunct or rare comedy podcasts from the pre-boom era.

The brief

This channel is a digital museum of early, often raw and unfiltered, comedy podcasting. It is not a single, consistent show but a curated collection of different series from various creators. The uploads feature a range of once-prominent but now-lost shows, from the offensively funny 'This Week in Jackin'' to the politically incorrect 'The Gavin McInnes Show' and the rambling 'NormCast' golf commentaries.

Its core function as a library of other people's lost work is its most distinctive feature. Unlike a standard podcast, the content, hosts, and format change with every upload, offering a diverse and unpredictable look into the comedy scene of the past.

    Archive of "The Gavin McInnes Show"

    Features the controversial Vice co-founder's provocative commentary on politics and culture, capturing a specific moment in the lead-up to the 2016 election.

  3. 03
    Archive of the Norm Macdonald "NormCast"

    Informal, long-form commentaries of The Masters golf tournament by comedy legend Norm Macdonald and his friends, showcasing his unique comedic style in a non-traditional format.

What you'll be asked on this show

How Lost Podcasts interviews

The channel itself has no production style; it simply presents the original audio or video of the archived podcasts. The shows themselves vary dramatically in format, from two-person interview shows in a studio to multi-person chaotic commentary streams. The audio and video quality reflect the standards of the time they were created, often being unpolished.
