              RadioLab: so many great episodes on random topics, some absolute gold here.
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck: relatively new, from the author of the best still book of the same name. So far, great!
Planet Money: US focused but still really interesting. Economics focused, non political.
The Inquiry: BBC deep dive on current affairs.
The Forum: BBC deep dive on various topics, some really interesting stuff.
Critical Role: its critical role....
The Kākā: NZ focused economics and politics.
Unexpected Elements: BBC science podcast.
The History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps: very deep dive into the history of philosophy.

Fall of Civilizations: in depth look at how and why civilizations fell.
Completely Arbortrary: all about trees and sometimes tree-like things, super funny and wholesome, love these guys.
Hello from the Magic Tavern: improv comedy with a (sometimes super slowly) evolving story featuring a human, a wizard, and a talking badger. I fall asleep to this all the time. My favorite bit is sometimes they play their world's version of D&D, Offices and Bosses 😂
Levar Burton Reads: Levar's favorite stories, expertly narrated by him. Best vibes ever!

This list looks very interesting, I'll have to check them out, Completely Arbortrary really appeals.

Edit: I listened to the first two fall of civilizations, it is really good. Thanks for the recommendation.
