Quick edit. I had no idea pod casts were so popular. Thank you all for posting. I have a lot of content to check out.

Security Now is great for getting Tech/Security industry information explained in a way that's fairly understandable even if you're not immersed in it.

Please Stop Talking.

The main podcast is usually just a bunch of hosts getting together to share life stories, discuss some random topics and laugh and joke around (sometimes jokes can be dark and/or very stupid, but I find them funny as hell).

Besides that, they do Poundering Spooky Tapes (by the way all their podcasts are based on PST acronym). They watch a (usually) horror movie and discuss it. There are also commentary tracks available if you want to watch the thing with their live commentary on it.

Perilous StoryTelling is a DnD podcast that they do, very entertaining to listen to. They have two campaigns available, Folk and Dagger did not have a proper ending to it due to a key member leaving not in the best way, while Subliminal Space is new and is still coming out.

And finally they record Press Start Turbo, a fully gaming related podcast where they cover news, do interviews with people from the industry and cover a game that they all play for the episode and share thier thoughts about it.

Science VS: They investigate the science behind trends. E.g. ozempic, protein powder, the male g-spot, weed strains etc. With citations for everything

Gastropod: The science and history of various foods

Radiolab: Documentaries on a wide range of subjects. Usually from an angle you wouldn’t expect

Wong Notes: Vulfpeck guitarist Cory Wong interviews other artists from a musician’s pov, which leads to much more interesting conversations than your usual interview

  • Crash Course Pods: The Universe, with John Green & Dr. Katie Mack. Talks about how the universe came into existence.
  • Volts, with David Roberts. Talks about electrification and the energy transition.

I don't listen to many podcasts, but those two are pretty great.

Hey Riddle Riddle - best humor and host interaction of any podcast I've listened to.

Ken and Robin talk about stuff. Two TTRPG game designer/writers discuss gaming, history, conspiracy theories, occultism, and horror.

If you feel like getting even more depressed about the state of the world;

Popular Front is a grassroots war/conflict reporting podcast by british journalist Jake Hanrahan, about different ongoing and developing conflicts around the world.

Kinda depressing, but often times far, far ahead of the large media house news cycles. Also offers a little bit of hope, with reports of why and how people on the ground are going against oppression of various kinds.

P.S. anyone know how one could bold comment/post text in the Jerboa app?

Third eye drops

Excellent podcast about philosophy, psychedelics and psychedelic assisted therapies, maps etc. Tons and tons of Dr's of science guests and the host is just amazing

MoneroTalk and MoneroTopia. The hosts and guests passionately care about human freedom through economic freedom and it's a really wonderful podcast.
