I dropped the ball a bit on listening to podcasts therefor right now it'd be "This American Life" but normally I also enjoy the Flophouse.

Dear Hank and John (funny John and Hank Green)

Hardcore History with Dan Carlin

The Debaters (Canadian comedy show where two comedians debate whether something (ex: malls, big weddings, etc) is good/bad and get judged by live audience)

  • check out the pretzels vs peanuts episode

I enjoy Adam Ragusea's podcast. It is a bit all over the place sometimes, but it's mostly about cooking related stuff?

French speakers should check out Mike Ward sous Γ©coute. It's just QuΓ©bec comedians* getting drunk in front of a crowd. I really enjoy it.

Darknet diaries have been named a few times already, but I will also list it, it's just that good haha.

* Google tells me humorist is a word in english but im not sure? It's mostly people doing comedy, not necessarily movies etc.

I’m really enjoying Working Out Out with Mike Birbiglia and WTF with Marc Maron

If you like investigative journalism, Someone Knows Something. David Ridgen is fantastic in all of his shows and the care with which he handles delicate subjects is rare.

Future Ecologies

It's so gorgeously audio designed and mixed, all about ecological preservation, geology, humans place as a part of nature, and many more and tangentially related topics. Headphones are a must.

Office Hours w/ Tim Heidecker. Very funny but he also has great musicians and other interesting folks on.

My top 6 according to how podcast addict sorts them:

8-4 Play

The Adventure Zone

Brad and Will Made a Tech Pod

538 Politics

Hardcore Gaming 101

Rude Tales of Magic

I'd probably also give shout outs to Self Hosted, Common Descent, Spacepod, the Nature podcast, and Software Engineering Radio.

The Weekly Planet. Two funny and liberal Aussie guys talk about comics, movies, and TV shows. Mostly the former two. They have a great YouTube channel too.

[–] variants@possumpat.io 2 points 2 years ago

black box down - it is about airplane incidents and goes into detail on how it happened plus what changed in the industry to avoid the issue in the future.

[–] Historical_General@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

FriendlyJordies.

A locally made one here in Australia - How Other Dads Dad, by Hamish Blake.

The Delta Flyers is a great Star Trek podcast about Star Trek: Voyager and more now that they have finished their re-watch of the series.

3x netzpolitik aber kein logbuch!? :D

[–] kat@feddit.nl 2 points 2 years ago

The Unmade Podcast (https://unmade.fm/) is probably my GOAT. Brady Haran (from Numberphile, Computerphile, etc.) and his Childhood friend, Tim Hein, come up with wacky ideas for podcasts that they won't actually make. Definitely the funniest podcast I've ever heard.

Hello Internet, also from Brady, with CGP Grey, is also amazing. Though sadly on hiatus.

Forehead Fables

Those who know, know

"If Books Could Kill", they cover the airport books that captured our hearts and ruined our minds.

One of my new favorites.

I aim for a (un)healthy mixture of tech and political commentary, far more than I could ever actually listen to.

Based on your current selections, you seem to favor comedy/celebrities/comedians. I don't follow too much stuff like that, but I have maybe two suggestions: Blocked and Reported for Internet bullshit (furry infighting, Adult Baby Diaper Lovers, Twitter drama). It tends towards a sort of moderate liberal/radical centrist politics. Srsly Wrong do kind-hearted goofy skits to explain their politics. Self-identified utopian socialists.

Most of the rest of the stuff I listen to is some variant of interviews with important thinkers or 2+ dudes/chicks/yos shooting the shit about socialism or FLOSS.

Usually those two:
WANshow from the LinusTechTips team

The Constant It is 'a history of getting things wrong', with deep research and fun way of storytelling.

[–] essellburns@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

Might be worth checking out "cautionary tales" too then. Similar kind of vibe
