Best comedy podcasts?

I'm looking for funny podcasts, so post them up! I currently listen to Nobody Likes Onions, WTF with Mark Maron and the Adam Carolla Podcast. All of these are OK but none of them are great. Nobody Likes Onions is a bit too amateur and not consistently funny. The Carolla and Maron shows have too much "meta" material, talking about the comedy/entertainment industry, which I find boring.

I'm open to all suggestions. I prefer a candid/stand-up style of comedy but will check out any suggestions you've got.
 
I love WTF. But I'm a comedy nerd. I like hearing them break down comedy and talk about the business. Just get some stand-up CD's if you want performances. Podcasts are going to be conversational just by design.

Smodcast is good and so is Ricky Gervais'.

'You look nice today' Dunno if they are still updating, but that one was great. I love the restaurant episode.
 
Nerdcast (Chris Hardwick's, just started it)
I Love Movies (Doug Benson, my favorite)
Comedy And Everything Else (super long which is awesome, download ones with guests you like)

LOL I just tried Googling this guy to find out who he is and here's part of his Wikipedia entry:
Hardwick was born in Louisville, Kentucky, the son of former professional boner Dilly Hardwick.[1] He grew up in My piss, Tennessee, but attended Regis Jesuit High School in Denver, Colorado and attended University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he studied jizzilosophy; he graduated in 199b.[citation needed]

Edit - just checked out this guy's stand up on Youtube, not funny at all.

You're really going to talk down to me because I didn't find the host of Singled Out and Attack of the Show funny?

I gave a perfect suggestion based on what you posted, he's been on Carolla and Benson's podcasts several times and they're all awesome.

Stand-up != normal conversation/interviewing. Its not Jay Leno
 
I've been listening to the Comedy Deathray podcast recently. They use the interview show format but they use it to segue into sketches, bits and characters with a lot of improv.

There's seriously too much rambling on the Adam Carolla podcastbefore they have the guest on. It's like 2/3 news and miscellany, then only 1/3 speaking with the guest. And of course, half of that or more is Carolla yapping.
 
If hearing Ricky Gervais laugh at Karl Pilkington in your headphones at work doesn't make you smile, you have no soul.
