I’m working my way through the old episodes of Short History Of and The Soundtrack Show. Both are well written and narrated and worth listening to.

My top 6 according to how podcast addict sorts them:

8-4 Play

The Adventure Zone

Brad and Will Made a Tech Pod

538 Politics

Hardcore Gaming 101

Rude Tales of Magic

I'd probably also give shout outs to Self Hosted, Common Descent, Spacepod, the Nature podcast, and Software Engineering Radio.

Nextlander, it's some of the OG Giant Bomb guys, I love their video games and industry coverage, and they're such warm comforting guys :-)

"If you're listening" is anazing, but I have always loved "The Science Show" the best. Both on ABC.

For non-Aussie podcasts, 99% invisible I guess.

Tech:

• Fedora Podcast
• Linux user space
• Linux Experiment (simply more content than the videos)
• Thundercast
• Sudo show

German

• Deutschlandfunk Nova Hörsaal
• Chaosradio
• Set & Setting (Jascha Renner)
• Das ist Netzpolitik
• off/on Netzpolitik
• Lage der Nation

Usually those two:
WANshow from the LinusTechTips team
Darknet Diaries by Jack Rhysider

I dropped the ball a bit on listening to podcasts therefor right now it'd be "This American Life" but normally I also enjoy the Flophouse.

Dear Hank and John (funny John and Hank Green)

Hardcore History with Dan Carlin

The Debaters (Canadian comedy show where two comedians debate whether something (ex: malls, big weddings, etc) is good/bad and get judged by live audience)

• check out the pretzels vs peanuts episode

I enjoy Adam Ragusea's podcast. It is a bit all over the place sometimes, but it's mostly about cooking related stuff?

French speakers should check out Mike Ward sous écoute. It's just Québec comedians* getting drunk in front of a crowd. I really enjoy it.

Darknet diaries have been named a few times already, but I will also list it, it's just that good haha.

* Google tells me humorist is a word in english but im not sure? It's mostly people doing comedy, not necessarily movies etc.

I’m really enjoying Working Out Out with Mike Birbiglia and WTF with Marc Maron

If you like investigative journalism, Someone Knows Something. David Ridgen is fantastic in all of his shows and the care with which he handles delicate subjects is rare.

Blocked Party, a Canadian podcast about getting blocked.

Future Ecologies

It's so gorgeously audio designed and mixed, all about ecological preservation, geology, humans place as a part of nature, and many more and tangentially related topics. Headphones are a must.

Office Hours w/ Tim Heidecker. Very funny but he also has great musicians and other interesting folks on.

black box down - it is about airplane incidents and goes into detail on how it happened plus what changed in the industry to avoid the issue in the future.

FriendlyJordies.

A locally made one here in Australia - How Other Dads Dad, by Hamish Blake.

The Weekly Planet. Two funny and liberal Aussie guys talk about comics, movies, and TV shows. Mostly the former two. They have a great YouTube channel too.

The Delta Flyers is a great Star Trek podcast about Star Trek: Voyager and more now that they have finished their re-watch of the series.

Mostly industry / work related stuff honestly.
