The Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine? Nice.
I’ve never listened, but I’m in the McElroy orbit already so maybe I ought to give it a shot.
That’s the one! I say give it a try. Their episode on rabies and syphilis were pretty good imo
How has no one mentioned “Off Menu”? It’s pretty much always my first choice of podcast if published a new one
I listen to mostly political podcasts.
- The rest is politics - UK / US
- The daily
- The Ezra Klein show
- Post report
- Pod save America
- Democracy Now
- Today in Focus
- The journal
- NRPs Political podcast
- The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart
Non political pods:
- Pre-production with Chris Stuckman
- Ted Talks daily
Domestic podcasts - Norway:
- Det Store Bildet
- Aftenpodden / USA / Midtøsten (premium only for Aftenposten subscribers)
- Poprådet (same as with Aftenpodden)
- Dypdykk (very good podcast that go deep into the material of each story, again need subscription from Aftenposten)
- Trygdekontoret - Podcast that focuses on many different issues.
- Urix - Podcast about news from the world and politics
- Ekko - Show about various topis. Sometimes they got experts and scientists to explain the different topics
- Abels tårn - Show about science. It makes it more understandable for the layman.
- Kommentert - Show about norwegian politics.
Another Darknet Diaries fan here. Very approachable, centered around cyber security and privacy. It’s the only one I am currently listening to, but I am going to check out some of the others from this thread.
Same. Only problem is how he’s shifted his focus and new episodes are uncommon :(
Any recommendations for sub 10min podcasts? I have a short commute and put it on 1.3 speed to get a dialy radio show.
I already have DW News, Tech News Briefing, Marketplace Tech, and a few like Male Your Damn Bed/Arnold’s Punp Club.
Can always do with more.
I subscribe to TWiT network so I listen to This Week in Tech/Google, Untitled Linux Show
Besides that i like waveform, the vergecast, no such thing as a fish, stuff you should know.
If Books Could Kill is new my favourite
Beautiful Anonymous Search Engine Expanded This American Life Selected Shorts The Bald and the Beautiful (all drag queen podcasts will teach you things about sex you have never imagined). Why Won’t You Date Me?
I think you could use some commas or carriage returns here- unless that’s all one podcast?
I made it as a list and this is how the text came out, damnit.

isweird.
(After the last word, two spaces for a new line, two returns for a new paragraph)
Thanks very much.
I didn’t notice the username before- I’m glad to help someone so active on lemmy! Among other things, you keep us “well fed” with crazy sovereign citizen posts 😂
Aren’t they wild? They absolutely slay me.
You said “they” rather than “those personhoods” ergo victo therefore your comment is invalid henceforth the UCC 130.3-A strawman is null and void. I will be sending a notarized coupon with writing at 45 degrees in red ink, which makes it official.
(Did I do it right? 😂)
The Deprogram, RevLeft, Socialist Program, Upstream
I prefer single voice, storytelling podcasts. I listen to them as bedtime stories a lot.
- Lore (the older episodes are better, IMO)
- Myths & Legends (snarky modern retelling of old folk stories)
- Fictional (when he actually updates it… same guy as above, but these are classic literature)
- LeVar Burton Reads (all over the board. It’s whatever stories LeVar liked. Leans a bit toward speculative fiction)
- Drabblecast, sometimes good if you like “weird fiction”
- Cautionary Tales (nonfiction)
- Just started getting into The Program. Clear Black Mirror influences here.
I also listen to Lore, Myths and Legends and Fictional as bedtime stories.
I would add “Nothing Much Happens” to this list. The podcaster writes these short stories and tells them in a soothing voice with the goal of helping you fall asleep.
I’ve seen that one in my podcast app, but my backlog is still so long. Might be good for nights that I just want to zonk right out though.
Cautionary Tales is stressful but fun. The host has a great style and podcast voice.
LeVar Burton Reads is often great. If you like LeVar and have kids in your life, they may like Sound Detectives! , wherein a detective and a 4 foot tall ear named Audie investigate missing sounds.
The thing I like most about LeVar Burton Reads is that it’s basically Reading Rainbow with the occasional “fuck” thrown in there.
And yeah, Tim Harford’s smooth voice is a much-needed balance to the anxiety inducing content of Cautionary Tales.
The NoSleep Podcast The Nightowl Podcast Weird Darkness Kinda Funny Games Daily Kinda Funny Gamescast Dungeons and Daddys Remember the game? The Last Podcast on the Left Smosh Reads Reddit Stories This Paranormal Life
That’s my current rotation right now.
The only podcast I listen to is the only podcast that has ever existed and it’s called ‘All Fantasy Everything.’ Everything else other users have posted is actually All Fantasy Everything in disguise behind a Joker mask hiding deep in the jungles of Bolivia. Pretty twisted.

I don’t listen to every episode of every show, but some shows I never miss. A lot of this came from being single during the pan and having a ton of alone time to fill while walking my area. Things fell off when we got back to normal and again when I got together with my partner. Luckily, my latest job has a lot of downtime so I’m able to listen to more again.
Mainly listen to Australian podcast cause am one and find them more relatable. Listen to others as well but most the others already been mentioned. All are comedy. Faves are:
Mid flight brawl
Hamish and Andy
Mat and Alex all day breakfast
Yeah good
- No Such Thing As A Fish - amazing facts by hilarious hosts
- Let’s Learn Everything - fascinating, hilarious and great chemistry between hosts
- Dungeons and Daddies (not a BDSM podcast) - stunning story with some actual RPG play
- Ologies - even the topics I felt would be boring were fascinating (like Ursinology)
