Tooth and Claw! I haven't seen that mentioned. Awesome podcast about animal attacks and animal facts

The Unmade Podcast (https://unmade.fm/) is probably my GOAT. Brady Haran (from Numberphile, Computerphile, etc.) and his Childhood friend, Tim Hein, come up with wacky ideas for podcasts that they won't actually make. Definitely the funniest podcast I've ever heard.

Hello Internet, also from Brady, with CGP Grey, is also amazing. Though sadly on hiatus.

I always find myself listening to Distractible on long road trips. The stories are really funny. My top two episodes are Bob's Fridge and Illegal Advice.

• Old Gods of Appalachia (horror anthology series set in an "alternate Appalachia," where the mountains were never intended for human inhabitants)

• We Die First (horror film review podcast "made for Black horror fans, by Black horror fans," but my white ass enjoys it)

• Just the Zoo of Us (a weekly spotlight on one or two animals, with ratings for effectiveness, enginuity, and aesthetics)

• Random Number Generator Horror Podcast Number 9 (another horror film review podcast, hosted by Jeffrey Cranor and Cecil Baldwin)

Star Trek: The Next Conversation

Unexplainable and Sean Carroll’s Mindscape.

If ur a nerd and like to be reminded how absolutely fucking stupid you are :)

• Behind the Bastards
• Citations Needed (not the Tom Scott one, the Adam Johnson and Nima Shirazi one)
• This Podcast Will Kill You

Generation Loss (its a podcast about movies that doesn't take itself too seriously)

All Fantasy Everything is the only podcast that has ever existed. 3 very funny friends/comedians + a guest fantasy draft anything and everything from the world of pop culture.

Some examples of previous draft topics include:

-People named Tom -Words that make you sound stupid -Movie Deaths -Bald People -Power moves -Movie Roles that Nicolas Cage should have had

"If Books Could Kill", they cover the airport books that captured our hearts and ruined our minds.

One of my new favorites.

I aim for a (un)healthy mixture of tech and political commentary, far more than I could ever actually listen to.

Based on your current selections, you seem to favor comedy/celebrities/comedians. I don't follow too much stuff like that, but I have maybe two suggestions: Blocked and Reported for Internet bullshit (furry infighting, Adult Baby Diaper Lovers, Twitter drama). It tends towards a sort of moderate liberal/radical centrist politics. Srsly Wrong do kind-hearted goofy skits to explain their politics. Self-identified utopian socialists.

Most of the rest of the stuff I listen to is some variant of interviews with important thinkers or 2+ dudes/chicks/yos shooting the shit about socialism or FLOSS.

My top 3:

• The Journal: current events
• Tides of History: history
• ChooseFI: personal finance

Are You Garbage?

It's like having a conversation with your buddies. It's a good time.

Beautiful Anonymous! One hour phone call with a stranger and the funniest most empathetic host ever, Chris Gethard.

Parenting Hell by a pair of UK comedians, Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe. Started as a lockdown podcast about how hard it is to be a parent during lockdown, but it's continued ever since. They get a different guest, usually a comedian, in every week to talk about parenting.

And they're comedians, so it's always funny. And totally relatable if you have kids.

For a more serious podcast, Free Range Humans is a fantastic podcast about effecting change in educational systems.

Smartless: Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes take turns picking a guest to interview each episode. The other two hosts are unaware of who the guest will be ahead of time

Skatcast: a different show 6 days a week! Tuesday is the original show, Skatcast, marketed as Cartoons For Your Earholes. Wednesday is The Dipshit Files, where the hosts wife delves into true crime, telling the host a different story each week. Thursday is Dave and Angus, a comedy show centered around two characters usually traveling the states, learning about them and inevitably getting kicked out of most places they visit. Friday is Just A Ride, where three hosts discuss a variety of topics while keeping in mind that this life is just a ride and we should enjoy ourselves on it. Monday is a Patreon only show where they go behind the curtain for a "bosses meeting" and discuss what's happening and coming up in the Skatcast world

The Constant It is 'a history of getting things wrong', with deep research and fun way of storytelling.
