Behind the bastards is great, but don't bother subscribing to ICHH, those get out into the feed weekly. I'm not a fan of the daily series (too hit and miss for me, and I have too many as it is), but the original season or two were good.

Other than that, I've been working on catching up to current on the dollop (us history) and staying current on Some More News (news/current events), Beau of the Fifth column (current events/analysis) and knowledge fight (mainly Alex Jones/InfoWars analysis and deconstruction). I'll listen to In Retrospect (pop culture nostalgia analysis) or Security Now (tech news/concept breakdowns) or Risky Business (tech news) as I have time.

I listen to a lot of podcasts. Lately it has been

English:

• Steam Rollers Adventure Podcast
• Desert Skies
• Copperheart
• Derelict
• Tower 4
• The Antiquarium of Sinister Happenings
• SCP Archives
• Margareth's Garden
• Thirteen

Swedish:

• P3 Dystopia
• P3 Dokumentär
• USA-podden
• Gräns
• Det Politiska spelet
• Europapodden
• Radiokorrespondenterna Ryssland
• Rollspelsklubben

And probably a dozen more

• The Daily Beans
• Jack: A Special Counsel Podcast
• Cleanup on Aisle 45
• Opening Arguments
• Dear Old Dads
• The Scathing Atheist

NECRONOMIPOD

You get: Aliens Cults Cryptids Conspiracies True Crime

And so much more. It may just be three dudes from Ohio bullshitting around in a basement but I fucking love it

I'm a sucker for true crime, so I would recommend anything like that.

Then there's No Such Thing as a Fish, which I find fun. Star Talk... Oh and I've been listening to that one with Zach Braff and Donald Faison where they rewatch Scrubs together and talk about each episode together with a relevant guest per episode. The Scrubs one happens during the pandemic as well, which they talk about sometimes, and it's interesting to hear how they are reacting to it and losing their loved ones.

Serious Trouble, by the further hosts of (and essentially a continuation of) All the President's Lawyers.

Nocturne, by Vanessa Lowe. A podcast about the night, and things that happen during the night. Favorite episodes: Night ways about what ancient people use to do at night and how archeology and anthropology are changing their perceptions; Finding the Void about a guy who lived inside a mall; On the North Face about a guy who got lost while climbing Mount Shasta; What's Would You Do about the fear of night.

I usually check in on The Daily like once a week to see if anything interesting has been covered.

And This Week in Virology, which I got into during the pandemic. Usually the weekly update on Friday on what contagious diseases are currently circulating, and about half the time their Sunday episode.

• The Decentered Podcast - discussions about fediverse projects and interviews with the people working on them
• SANS Daily Stormcast - daily cybersecurity alerts
• Risky.biz - weekly cybersecurity news and discussions with industry professionals
• Security Now - weekly cybersecurity news and topical deep dives
• NPR: Up First - daily US and global news
• LeVar Burton Reads - LeVar Burton reads short stories

For college football fans, Shutdown Fullcast, the only college football podcast. They occasionally accidentally talk about football.

F**k Face and Face Jam were my jam, but I have no clue how long they’ll be around what with Rooster Teeth being shut down. Otherwise, I try to keep up with Factually! as often as I can.

I've been listening to a lot of This American Life this year. Gosh the stories are good.

Also this is pretty woowoo and the commercial part is really heinous but the Expanded podcast by To Be Magnetic is genuinely a really good self help podcast. It's a lot of white women in fedora schtick but their advice is actually really very good.

• Even More News
• Behind The Bastards
• Party Girls
• Translash
• Antifada
• Tech Won't Save Us
• Better Offline
• Factually
• Knowledge Fight
• The Hamilton Morris Podcast

The one podcast I listen to every week as it comes out is Lateral, a trivia show hosted by Tom Scott with rotating guests.

Other than that, I have a thing for casual and conversational history podcasts, including:

• The Lesser Bonapartes (old but gold, the full backlog's only available on spotify under the title 'From the desk of Glen')
• Dead Ideas
• Some 'leader ranking' podcasts with the same formula: Rex Factor (British monarchs), Totalus Rankium (Roman Emperors and then American Presidents) and Pontifacts (Popes)

• Python Bytes
• Talk Python to Me
• The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe
• Behind the Bastards
• Geeks without God

Not a lot, but several haven't been mentioned yet:

• Darknet Diaries
• SANS ISC StormCast
• 538 Politics
• Lawfare
• Rational Security
• Perun - Technically a Youtube series, but there is a podcast feed for the audio

I like listening to people play RPGs. I mostly enjoy them playing Pokemon but have run out of them I used to listen to M&M and now listen to DnD.

Hard Fork - I love the hosts and the current popular tech news Pantsuit Politics - some really thoughtful nuanced views (Sarah can get a little spicy but it’s fun and informative) Knowledge Fight Maintenance Phase (only releasing intermittently right now but the hosts are hilarious and it’s good info about all things health and nutrition…good myth debunking)

And these ones are very popular and probably not unknown to you but I listen to Up First (NPR) and The Daily every single day as they’re good, short to moderate length current news podcasts…relatively unbiased.

I also listen to Pod Save America, Slate Political Gabfest, FiveThirtyEight, The Bulwark and Strict Scrutiny for a wide range of political arenas (lefty, righty, polling, judiciary…not in that order necessarily)

• This week in Tech
• This week in Google
• No such thing as a fish
• Waveform
• Vergecast

I subscribe to a few more, but I often skip them, but the above i listen to every episode.

Metis in Space!

Give Srsly Wrong a shot! The Wrong Boys are funny and earnest and I always learn something from them.

Brad and Will made a Tech Pod Last podcast on the left Nextlander Old Gods of Appalachia

I wanted to finish Wheel of Time, but couldn't slog my way through all the books again, so I listened to the Dragon Re-Read. A ton of fun conversation and saved me so much time and reading.

Never been one for podcasts but man—the past few years have been super inundated with Drawfee and the related Secret Sleepover Society content on YouTube. It’s just so comforting as background noise while working.
