Any Interesting (Not Disturbing) Podcasts? (programming.dev)

I used to listen to long form essays on Youtube. My favourite ones either break down the history of a conspiracy, teach me something new and cool about the world, or explore a hobby I've never been interested in.

I don't like the ones about killers or heavy drama. I also don't like podcasts that spend half the time reading the latest news from [topic] in verbatim .

What are some podcasts you can recommend me while I chip away at other things?

I used to love Reply All before Alec Goldman's shenanigans (awful behavior) came to light. So it was a real bright spot for me to find that PJ's pod has almost everything I loved about Reply All. He's willing to pursue things past the point any reasonable person with a job would and I love it. If you want a deep dive about whatever rabbit hole that takes his interest for the episode, it's a great place imo.

What did Alec Goldman do? I know what PJ did but this is the first I'm hearing about Alec.
