Wait wait don't tell me

Knowledge Fight - Analysis of Alex Jones and his fucked up world

God Awful Movies - Let's watch bad religious movies and talk shit about them

Behind the Bastards - Details about evil fuckers in history (and the present)

If Books Could Kill - let's read shitty airport books and talk about them

Qanon Anonymous (QAA now?) - The Qanon conspiracy world is fucking wild. Best keep track of it.

Others more sporadically.

Another Darknet Diaries fan here. Very approachable, centered around cyber security and privacy. It's the only one I am currently listening to, but I am going to check out some of the others from this thread.

The one I listen the most and for the longest is No such thing as a fish.

Other that that, Better Offline, Darknet diaries, Money Stuff, Search engine, a local politics one that I disagree with but I use to be aware of what my local conservative pseudo fascists are arguing about.

And not so regularly many others whenever there's an interesting episode.

• Accidental Tech Podcast: Three dudes talking about tech and (mostly) Apple
• The Allusionist: podcast about language and linguistics
• The Bruenigs: Matt & Liz Bruenig talk about random stuff
• Cortex: podcast about productivity by Myke Hurley & CGP Grey
• Factually: Interviews with interesting people hosted by Adam Connover
• Hello Internet (Dead): two dudes talking, GGP Grey & Brady Haran (Numberphile)
• Intentionally Blank: Random conversations with Brandon Sanderson & Dan Wells
• No Such Thing As a Fish: Intersting and odd facts by the team behind the British TV show QI
• Puck Soup: Ice Hockey News and information
• Stuff You Should Know: Funny podcast about all kinds of stuff
• The Tennis Podcast: podcast about tennis
• Ungeniused: brief episodes about interesting Wikipedia pages
• The Unmade Podcast: mostly random stuff, but about pitching ideas for other podcasts
• Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me: the NPR News quiz

I prefer single voice, storytelling podcasts. I listen to them as bedtime stories a lot.

• Lore (the older episodes are better, IMO)
• Myths & Legends (snarky modern retelling of old folk stories)
• Fictional (when he actually updates it... same guy as above, but these are classic literature)
• LeVar Burton Reads (all over the board. It's whatever stories LeVar liked. Leans a bit toward speculative fiction)
• Drabblecast, sometimes good if you like "weird fiction"
• Cautionary Tales (nonfiction)
• Just started getting into The Program. Clear Black Mirror influences here.

A lot. The one's I always come back to are

Not another D&D podcast

Improvised star trek

Thrilling adventure hour

Dungeons & Daddies

Hello from the Magic Tavern

Conan O Brian Needs a Friend

Comedy Bang Bang

Doug loves Movies - (since covid has a lot of video call episodes instead of live shows which really kills the energy imo.)

edited for formatting

Currently Dan Carlin's Hardcore History. Love it because he's good at the storytelling and there aren't a lot of sponsored segments like other popular shows.

In order of listening frequency:

Self Hosted

Cory Doctorow's Craphound

I subscribe to TWiT network so I listen to This Week in Tech/Google, Untitled Linux Show

Besides that i like waveform, the vergecast, no such thing as a fish, stuff you should know.

• No Such Thing As A Fish - amazing facts by hilarious hosts
• Let's Learn Everything - fascinating, hilarious and great chemistry between hosts
• Dungeons and Daddies (not a BDSM podcast) - stunning story with some actual RPG play
• Ologies - even the topics I felt would be boring were fascinating (like Ursinology)

• It's always sunny podcast,
• Radiolab,
• 99 Percent invisible ,
• The Dollop,
• Stuff You Should Know,
• Philosophize This,
• Behind The Bastards,
• Sawbones,
• The Moth
• This American Life (less these days)

Then I have a couple of news and political news talk shows that I listen to sparingly.

Sawbones

• I was a teenaged fundamentalist
• soft skills engineering
• radió ambulante
• real python
• brief history of mathematics

A few that haven't been said in other comments

Here are two I recommend:

The Rest is History - two historians, Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook go deep on interesting topics from history.

Never Post - a podcast described as “about and for the internet” and in some sense the spiritual successor to Hello Internet but also reminding me of classic Radiolab. Worth checking out.

• Most Cool Zone Media shows
• Radio Free Tote Bag
• Oddity Roadshow
• Cory Doctorow
• Sandy and Nora/Daily News
• Respect the Dead
• Knowledge Fight

The only podcast I listen to is the only podcast that has ever existed and it’s called ‘All Fantasy Everything.’ Everything else other users have posted is actually All Fantasy Everything in disguise behind a Joker mask hiding deep in the jungles of Bolivia. Pretty twisted.

I listen to mostly political podcasts.

• The rest is politics - UK / US
• The daily
• The Ezra Klein show
• Post report
• Pod save America
• Democracy Now
• Today in Focus
• The journal
• NRPs Political podcast
• The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart

Non political pods:

• Pre-production with Chris Stuckman
• Ted Talks daily

Domestic podcasts - Norway:

• Det Store Bildet
• Aftenpodden / USA / Midtøsten (premium only for Aftenposten subscribers)
• Poprådet (same as with Aftenpodden)
• Dypdykk (very good podcast that go deep into the material of each story, again need subscription from Aftenposten)
• Trygdekontoret - Podcast that focuses on many different issues.
• Urix - Podcast about news from the world and politics
• Ekko - Show about various topis. Sometimes they got experts and scientists to explain the different topics
• Abels tårn - Show about science. It makes it more understandable for the layman.
• Kommentert - Show about norwegian politics.

• SciShow tangents (a lightly competitive science show)

• Ologies (interviewing experts from different fields/ologies)

• Fake Doctors, Real Friends (Scrubs actors rewatching scrubs, my favorite show when i was younger. Plus great behind the scenes of film making)

• The Imp & Skizz show (just two gamers i love to watch, talking about creative stuff. Probably not as enjoyable for anyone who doesn't watch them already though. Still love them and would love to see then succeed more!)

Political: Chapo Traphouse, TrueAnon, Know Your Enemy

Semi-political and humor: QAA, Spycops

Humor: Boonta Vista, Your Favorite Band Sucks

I don't listen to every episode of every show, but some shows I never miss. A lot of this came from being single during the pan and having a ton of alone time to fill while walking my area. Things fell off when we got back to normal and again when I got together with my partner. Luckily, my latest job has a lot of downtime so I'm able to listen to more again.

Stuff you should know

Ukraine: The Latest

Critical Role

Darknet Diaries

None apart from that. You're better off listening to pirated audiobooks, especially the full-cast kind with SFX like those created by GraphicAudio

How has no one mentioned "Off Menu"? It's pretty much always my first choice of podcast if published a new one

I only listen to two, usually while diving

Do radio shows count? I don't know that anyone has mentioned A Way With Words, in which the hosts answer questions from callers on any and all language questions.

I like On Taking Pictures a lot. Nice podcast that really sparked my interest in photography about 10 years ago.

I try to stay away from political podcasts these days because I'm just too burnt out.

Long commute here, so quite a few.

• Conan OBrien Needs A Friend
• Behind the Bastards
• Smartless

Also have nightvale and wtf marc maron but haven't listened to those in a long time.

Only one I listen to sometimes is https://www.bsdnow.tv/ since I'm an OpenBSD user and it's interesting to hear about other BSDs from time to time.

Dave and Chuck "The Freak" and Well There's Your Problem.

Another big fan of Darknet Diaries.

Ever since Michael Bazzle of Privacy, Security & OSINT stopped doing the podcasts, I'm still trying to find a replacement. Am listening to The Lockdown - Practical Privacy and Security in the mean time.

Also listen to Linux Game Cast.

Safety first and Zaza (lithuanian and has no topics ,but uploads once in like a year)

Any recommendations for sub 10min podcasts? I have a short commute and put it on 1.3 speed to get a dialy radio show.

I already have DW News, Tech News Briefing, Marketplace Tech, and a few like Male Your Damn Bed/Arnold's Punp Club.

Can always do with more.

.

Not huge on podcasts but I enjoy The Casual Criminalist.

The Co-Main Event Stuff You Should Know Space Nuts Joy

Fly on the Wall, Smartless, and WTF, but only when they have interesting guests.

Believe You Me and Morning Kombat, but only when I’m in the right head space.
