Put away those earbuds and get up close and personal with some of your favorite hosts

Podcasts, aka every Angeleno’s highway travel buddy, have been around for over a decade, but they have exploded in popularity in the last two years (thanks in large part to Serial, which in the fall of 2014 became the fastest podcast to reach 5 million streams or downloads in iTunes history). This weekend, celebrate the medium at the fourth annual Los Angeles Podcast Festival at the Sofitel Hotel. Jam-packed with many of the most popular podcasters—Marc Maron, Todd Glass, Leonard Maltin, Aisha Tyler— the festival, presented by Audible, has something for every comedy nerd. The weekend also features events for aspiring podcasters, including a panel on crowdfunding (Saturday) and the Squarespace Podcast Lab, where you can record your own podcast live from the Fest (BYO recording gear). If you can’t make it to Beverly Hills this weekend, you can buy a $25 ticket to watch a video live stream. Here are five podcasts not to miss at this year’s Fest (in order of appearance):
