Calm Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 FairMormon has a number of podcasts. I am afriad I can't recommend any specific ones as I am a visual learner and thus prefer texts and podcasts tend to frustrate me too much to endure. http://www.fairmormon.org/media/fairmormon-podcasts 1

In this vein some good ones are "Ephraim's Rescue" and "17 Miracles," which you may also enjoy watching at home, and you can probably find used online. Another which is not "LDS-themed" is The Prince of Egypt which is an animated version of the Exodus Story. The music was done by an LDS composer, and is excellent. I have watched that movie probably more times than any other in my life [most others have a max of 2; Ephraim's rescue is now 3]. I am sure there are a number of audio tapes and movies about Joseph Smith. The Living Scriptures came out with some "docudramas" on DVD which may interest you - I have not personally seen them, but they are supposed to be pretty good: http://www.amazon.com/The-Heavens-Are-Opened-Restoration/dp/B001JE2XQK?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_13&smid=A2IU8VB0V3EAU3 http://www.amazon.com/Legacy-Faith-The-Docudrama-Restoration/dp/B000FKW0CQ?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_12&smid=A2IU8VB0V3EAU3 If you want a variety, you could get something like "Gospel Library" which will allow you to listen to General Conference talks, etc. You can get it as an app on your phone, etc. 1
Tacenda Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) This one is more a middle way but a faith promoting way to believe in Mormonism... http://mormonmatters.org/ This is pretty current and you don't wait weeks for each one.... http://www.theculturalhallpodcast.com/ Hopefully these are entertaining and don't put you to sleep while driving.

Here is one of my favorites: https://speeches.byu.edu/talks/brad-wilcox_his-grace-is-sufficient/ 2
salgare Posted April 12, 2016 Posted April 12, 2016 Steve this is an interview with one of the September Six, which is a topic you should pursue in your studies over time. The September Six (1993) refers to six individuals that were excommunicated in that month. This is an interview with one of the intellectuals (declared as an enemy to the church) of the six (others composed of gay and feminist supporters). Please listen to Part 7 first. It is his testimony, all these years after his excommunication. I plead with all here to listen to part 7 of this interview. It is only 21:43 minutes long. I love this Brother in Christ; I love the man who mentored him as well as me. Don’t fear it, nor listen to those who might strongly reject this suggestion. It has a message for all of us, a powerful message and you will learn something about Mormonism. I hope that last part will entice you to the whole of the interview. I believe it’s a violation of rules to link this one for you. Search Mormon stories for “077-083: “Understanding the September Six” — Paul Toscano Parts 1 – 7”

What you would enjoy depends on what you want to be. What do you want to believe?

The LDS Church itself used to produce podcasts, but not anymore. But of the ones they did produce, there are many that I enjoyed. https://www.lds.org/media-library/accessing-media-podcasts-rss-feeds?lang=eng There is an entire 63-part series on Mormon Church history that starts in the early 1800s and goes through the Pioneer migration to Utah. So if there are any periods of Church history that you think might be interesting, it's worth checking these out: http://feeds.lds.org/past-impressions This series discusses doctrines and principles, such as "Baptism", "The Book of Mormon", "Pride" etc. http://feeds.lds.org/LDSQuestionsAndAnswers 1
