My Top 3 Coolest and Drunky web shows
Because it’s always funnier with some drinks ! (with responsibility).
It was perhaps the best american podcast of the past decade. The show was actually a video podcast. It has been hosted by Kevin Rose (great entrepreneur, founder of Digg, North Technologies & Hodinkee's CEO, angel investor & watches geek) and Alex Albrecht (podcast host, actor, director). These two guys were at this time, in the Revision3 network well-known for the best quality of its podcasts in tech and entertainment fields.
The pitch : two guys argue and laugh face camera on top Digg posts. A talk on buzz with great booze.
Why it was cool : the topics discussed (learning something) and the beer effect on the discussion (a lot of bad faith and laughs). And obviously a new way to discover new drinks, whatever they were. The cool effect : this setup has brought a kind of intimacy and then closeness with these two guys.

2.The french Apero du Captain Web
It's hard not to talk about this french show. I miss words for it. By the numbers : more than 200 shows, 6 full years of weekly drunk shows, hundreds of "Wazzuf" chronicles (the best of "What The F*ck" news around the planet), serious endless chronicles on internet trends and tech news.
The pitch : Each tuesday when the night begins, these podcast pirates (the show's name translated : Aperitif of Captain Web) sets your bandwith and your ears on fire for 3 hours of a wacky audio show. If you're a night bird, you can watch their livestream, live from a Paris basement. Four fool guys : Captain Web, the tub's captain ; Lord Ton Père, the unseen, brainy and serious business caution of the show ; Manox, the lord of imitations and crazy audio pieces & Kwakos, composer, imitator and WTF news ninja curator.
Why you have to listen (at least one time) : the best souvenir i have with this show is... when i've seen the sun rise in Paris while i was in front of my computer, hard laughing to the hosts jokes and their guest, the crazy talented Boulet from Bouletcorp.com. An endless night of crazyness and swear words. This is what best describes this show : crazyness and hard laughing. Give it a try.

Apart from the excellent Foundation (interview of a great founder/entrepreneur), i've not found a single show where Kevin Rose doesn't drink : tea, wine, beer or whatever. :)
Since 2009, Rose randomly talks with a great teammate and friend, in the person of Tim Ferriss, a best selling author (4 Hour Workweek) and angel investor. The show's name : The Randon Show which is like a more mature version of Diggnation.
The pitch : on a totally random way, Kevin and Tim meet each other over a drink (tea, wine,...) to talk facecam about various topics : tech, startup, meditation, sex, sex, sex... :)
The reason to subscribe to the podcast : a nice feeling that we’re in a lounge, discussing with good old friends after work. It's most of all an inspiring show brought to you by two talented bros who have lived great experiences, between fails and wins.
