Maybe I'm just a dummy. I can't figure out where antennapod tells you this?

Basic tech bro stuff but, WAN Show
How is WAN show lately? I tried to listen a while back but Linus... comes off really, really full of himself and it was hard tolerate to get to the substance.
He def has an ego but, I think heβs a good person and I agree with the majority of broader ethical opinions he has so, nothing that turns me off a ton
no such thing as a fish the adam ragusea podcast lateral with tom scott
The Right Time with Bomani Jones.
I wonder what he'll be doing next since he was let go from ESPN in the great 2023 purge.

Next 3 are probably 8-4 Play, The Adventure Zone, and Rude Tales of Magic.
By hour count this year:
- Behind the Bastards
- The Dollop
- The Best Thing Ever (used to be called Read it and Weep)
Office Ladies is pretty much the only thing I listen to. I'm almost through s3.
Omnibus. Ten Percent Happier. Madigan's Pubcast.
Shut up and sit down, funniest board game podcast
Poorhammer is the only podcast i listen to
- the infinite monkey cage
- cautionary tales
- crowdscience
Oh shit. Can't believe you got my exact top 3. Especially since Cautionary Tales isn't even BBC and likely much more of a niche show.
Haha great! I got into cautionary tales because of 'more or less', searched for Tim harford because I liked he's presenting!
Oh wow. You really are me. This is surreal. Care to share your whole podcast list? I'd be interested in discovering new shows from someone with similar interests.
Sure, it's mostly BBC and mostly science.
My all time favorite podcast is Elements. It's from 2014-2016, but still worth the listen! Every episode explores an element or a group of similar elements on the periodic table. Physics and chemistry is often very theoretical and weird and hard to understand (for me), but in this podcast it gets very applied and business oriented: which industry uses this stuff, why, how ...? It was my gateway-podcast into the BBC really.
- The documentary podcast: I often don't listen, it very much depends on the subject
- witness history
- Discovery: same, depends on subject
- The food chain
- 50 things that made the modern economy
- Unexpected elements
- Hidden brain (shankar vedantam)
- Radiolab (WNYC studios)
- The climate question
- Sliced bread
One that doesn't really fit the others but i liked very much: death in ice valley.
And then a few in german and dutch language, mostly politics/society, i'm just gonna assume you don't understand dutch or german ;)
Care to share some of yours?
Awesome, thanks. Here are some of the ones I would recommend:
The Reith Lectures - Lecture series from an expert on a topic. Tend to release episodes close to the end of the year only (episodes are releasing now talking about the state of democracy). The backlog is worth listening to.
The Dream- investigative podcast looked at pyramid schemes and the world of wellness.
The Jordan Harbinger Show - In-depth conversations with people at the top of their game.
Playing God - Medical ethics. Life-and-death dilemmas. New medical technologies. Controversial treatments.
Hot Money: The New Narcos - The backlog has excellent episodes about investigating the financing structures in the porn industry. They're just preparing to launch a new series now but I don't know what they're going to look at now.
You Are Not So Smart - about reasoning, biases, judgments, and decision-making.
The Happiness Lab - the science of happiness
Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas
CrowdScience - Listener questions about a science issue that the presenters then try to find experts to answer
The Real Story - examination of some current event issue.
The Inquiry - gets beyond the headlines to explore the trends, forces and ideas shaping the world.
The Infinite Monkey Cage - a witty, irreverent look at the world through scientists
Darknet Diaries - true stories of the dark side of the Internet
Revisionist History - Malcolm Gladwelllooks at things overlooked and the misunderstood
Owls at Dawn - Two dudes from SoCal who studied philosophy, politics, and religion around the globe who decided to start a podcast where we could bullshit with impunity.
If Books Could Kill - Two guys talk about books that are popular and tear apart how bad they are. I mostly find you don't need to have read the book and the books tend to be pretty popular.
The Forum - The programme that explains the present by exploring the past. Expert panel discussion about any subject area.
Law in Action - legal magazine programme, featuring reports and discussion on matters relating to law (UK based)
All Consuming - explore our culture of consumption through products that have changed the world.
Sound of Gaming - video game soundtracks and an interview with a sound designer from a popular video game.
Bad People - true crime with a criminologist and a comedian. This show has ended but the backlog is great.
I haven't listened to many podcasts lately, so this will be over the past couple years.

Jung & naiv And Aufwachen Podcast
Are the best ones.- but they are german
FΓΌr mich: Logbuch Netzpolitk, Lage der Nation, UKW, Raumzeit, Forschergeist, Hoaxilla. DAS PODCAST UFO, Stay Forever und "WTFM 100, Null" fΓΌr's Entertainment. Aber Jung & Naiv ist auch super. Tilo auf der Bundespressekonferenz ist immer ein highlight.

I really, really need to listen to more. My spouse made me listen to the Steven Segal episodes. Wow, I knew he was a jerkwad, but I didn't know how extensively terrible he is.
it's an extremely good podcast, plus they lost their sources so if you're interested in a specific part, you can read up on it. i will say that some of the episodes are hard to get through. dark humor can only help so much, lol. but it's a great way to learn stuff you might not have been exposed to. if you're interested in that, you also might like Blowback. first season is the Iraq War, second is the unofficial US war with Cuba.
