Sawbones "A marital tour of Misguided Medicine" from Justin & Sydney McElroy is a great podcast. each episode dives into the history behind some medical quackery. Funny & Informative, I always learn something and have a good time.
If you like Sawbones you might also like "This podcast will kill you", an epidemiologist and a doctor make cocktails and go into the history and pathophysiology of diseases and conditions throughout human history.
Not as classically funny as the McElroys, but really informative and they do a good job at keeping the "disturbing content" to a minimum even when going into detail on pretty devastating illnesses.
For a much more lightweight podcast "You're Dead to Me" from the writers of Horrible Histories is fun. A historian quizzes comedians on their knowledge of historical events and figures.
I also like "oh no Ross and carrie" -- same network
