For me it’s This Week In Google.
I listen to it every week and between new episodes I listen to the archival episodes I haven’t heard yet.
Darknet Diaries. Full of fascinating cybersecurity stories and interviews, with both whitehats and blackhats.
I kinda like the crime more
No Such Thing as a Fish, from the QI Elves. Funny, informative, rarely about current events which is a breath of fresh air. Just nerds getting nerdy about stuff.
Yes! I’m on my ~20th play though I reckon. I get to the end and go straight back to the start.
Dammi I gotta start that. It’s been on my list for ages and I’ve never heard an episode.
Behind the Bastards for me. They have had some great and very informative episodes.
I’m super behind and that mostly doesn’t matter, which is nice. Excellent podcast. Currently on part 3 of the Thomas Jefferson deep dive. For people who like Behind The Bastards, check out their limited run of Behind The Police.
I loved the Jefferson deep dive. I also lived the Robert E Lee deep dive. Fuck those guys.
Car talk, Dan Carlin’s hardcore History, the maggott show, freakonomics, game design round table
The Dollop
Particularly the 1908 New York Paris Car Race episode
Til Death Do Us Blart
Every year around American Thanksgiving the members of My Brother, My Brother, and Me along with the hosts of Worst Idea of All Time watch Paul Blart Mall Cop 2 and discuss the movie. It’s a surreal journey through the passage of time.
Old MBMBAM is also very good. It’s horrible after a couple hundred episodes.
Awesome, will check out
Oh No Ross and Carrie was my gold standard of podcast… until they ended after 13 years… two days ago… 🥲
It a great podcast for sure. The ending was so awkward, that it’s almost as if they want us to speculate about what happened to Carrie. They barely complimented each other, recorded separately, and didn’t even like the other’s goodbye announcement on social media. Very odd.
As far as I can tell from creeping, Drew and Carrie’s pets are still alive, so it’s not that.
99% Invisible
Came here to say this show and Planet Money.
The first campaign of Dungeons and Daddies is fantastic. It’s one I’ve come back to a couple of times.
I just finished episode 48 on my first runthrough. Seriously good shit.
I’ve binged 60 episodes in like three weeks after a recommendation from a fellow dad. It’s fantastic.
Welcome to Night Vale and QWERPLine
What a Hell of a Way To Die, Well There’s Your Problem, The Unsubscribe Podcast, Bourbon Moth Woodworking podcast, Kill Tony, Creepcast, Time for Pie, Behind the Bastards.
There are others that are questionably a podcast.
Knowledge Fight. Keeps me up-to-date on the right-wing grifter-sphere. Wacky Wednesday episodes were the best when they’d listen to Project Camelot or Jim Bakker. Equal parts SMH and LOL :) Long live the Bachelor Squatch!
This American Life and Heavyweight
My Dad Wrote A Porno
Technically its an audio drama but I love The Magnus Archives.
The Fall of Civilizations is a banger as well if you like history but I don’t go back and listen to this one
