I love this thread! Many of my favorites have been mentioned. My first first few are acquired tastes, but I have come to really enjoy them.

  • Last Podcast on the Left - true crime, aliens, paranormal, horror comedy show
  • Timesuck with Dan Cummins - similar to LPotL, but single host
  • Knowledge Fight - commentary on Alex Jones and others with humor
  • Internet Today - opinion based comedy news for all things tech, gaming, etc.

On the shorter side:

  • Everything Everywhere Daily - something new every day on various subjects
  • Today in History with the Retrospectors - short daily episodes bringing you curious moments from this day in history
  • Atlas Obscura - curious and wondrous travel destinations

And a classic that I don't think has been mentioned:

  • Stuff You Should Know - interesting discussion about a wide variety of topics

I have added Chilluminati to try based on this thread.

Everyone loves history or investigation podcasts in this thread!

Man, LPotL has really come a long way in their research depth and quality. Started listening for the true crime but I like their paranormal and cult stuff more.

Some of my favorite ones are their in-depth historical pieces. Their Black Plague and Manhattan project episodes left me emotionally devastated for days afterwards.

Agreed! They have matured a lotโ€ฆ well, at least in the depth of research. ๐Ÿ˜‚
