What podcasts have you been listening to the most during the year? (lemmy.ml)

I'm getting close to the bottom of my backlog on a few podcasts, so I'm looking to get something new in there.

Personally, it's been, in no particular order:

If Books Could Kill
Darknet Diaries
Hard Fork
99% Invisible
The War on Cars
The Urbanist Agenda
The Climate Denier's Playbook
Well There's Your Problem

I'm mildly considering getting into Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here, but I'm a little bit skeptical on account of how damn much there is to be listened to in their feed.

The one podcast I listen to every week as it comes out is Lateral, a trivia show hosted by Tom Scott with rotating guests.

Other than that, I have a thing for casual and conversational history podcasts, including:

The Lesser Bonapartes (old but gold, the full backlog's only available on spotify under the title 'From the desk of Glen')
Dead Ideas
Some 'leader ranking' podcasts with the same formula: Rex Factor (British monarchs), Totalus Rankium (Roman Emperors and then American Presidents) and Pontifacts (Popes)
