Do you have an iPhone or an Android device? Folks usually access them on phones! They’re just basically audio stories, fictional or nonfiction, informational or INCREDIBLY STUPID, but hilarious.

If that sounds fun, I can recommend some things!

I’d you’re on Android, you have an app called Android Podcasts. If you’re on an iPhone, I highly recommend the free app Overcast because it’s infinitely better than Apple Podcasts.

What kinda stuff are you interested in? My podcast list is mostly comprised of non-annoying true crime, interesting tech stuff, and the dumbest comedy garbage I’ve ever heard (and I very much love how dumb it is.)

Sorry for some reason I didn't see your reply before.

History, tech, tv seris (Fantasy, Sci Fi, etc).. These are the things that I think might work in a podcast format, do you have any recommendation?

Absolutely!

History, Behind the Bastards is hilarious and mortifying. Start with “Oskar Dirlwanger: The Worst Nazi”.

Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History is more serious with LOOONG episodes. Painfotainment is definitely a great one to start with.

Tech, Darknet Diaries is the greatest. Tons of excellent stories about infosec, opsec, and pentesting. Start with Gollumfun… or Welcome to Video if you wanna be absolutely mortified.

“Search Engine” is another great tech podcast that goes further than just tech. Start with “Should this creepy search engine actually exist?”

Sounds exteremly interesting! Thank you so much, that should elevate the boredem from my commute

No worries! I listen to podcasts all day while I work, and I very much love them.

“Hunting Warhead” is one of the best I’ve heard, but I can’t content warning it enough. It’s completely fucked, and gets worse every episode. Excellently researched and told, though.
