[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 8923602, member: 11760"] With Spotify/Gimlet buying up independent podcasts and then shutting them down when they turn out to not be giant hits (RIP Every Little Thing), I think the Golden Age of Podcasts has probably been over for about five years now, unfortunately. Still, a lot of great stuff out there. I listen to 20 or more hours of them a week, replacing terrestrial radio with it both in the car and while working. My list, which includes repeats of [USER=7023840]@Snarf Zagyg[/USER]'s picks and some others: [LIST] [*]The 7 (the podcast version of the Washington Post's morning email of the top seven stories of the day) [*]99% Invisible (a podcast about the 99% invisible world of design and how it shapes our world) [*]The Adventure Zone (the original actual play podcast; I've fallen off from this one a bit, as I don't enjoy the world-building the McElroys prefer, although their interpersonal dynamics make the episodes enjoyable despite that, for the most part) [*]Articles of Interest (a 99% Invisible spin-off about fashion which doesn't sound amazing, but totally is -- the most recent season about preppy clothing was mind-blowing, which I know sounds unlikely, but which is totally true) [*]Bullseye (an NPR entertainment magazine by and for Generation X/Millennials, although I don't know that Jesse, the host, would ever confess to that -- the show was originally called The Sound of Young America, though, which gives it away) [*]The Business (Hollywood news magazine by one the LA NPR stations and hosted by an editor at The Hollywood Reporter) [*]Coverville (all covers and the original versions of songs that became hits as covers, usually themed around an artist's birthday or death) [*]Critical Role (although it's a low priority for me, given how long each episode is) [*]Dead Pilots Society (script reads by professional actors of pilots that got acquired by a studio but never produced) [*]Desert Oracle Radio (spooky, hyper-literate UFO stories and environmentalism from Joshua Tree, like if Art Bell had an MFA) [*]FiveThirtyEight Politics (deeply nerdy polling-driven political talk) [*]Hello from the Magic Tavern (NSFW fantasy world improv) [*]Imaginary Worlds (an entertainment magazine about nerd stuff) [*]KQED's The California Report (10-minute daily news magazine drawn from California NPR stations) [*]The Lazy RPG Podcast (the podcast version of Mike Shea's YouTube channel) [*]The Loh Down on Science (90-second science stuff, as told by the very funny radio commentator and author Sandra Singh Loh) [*]Make Me Smart (a daily Marketplace podcast going into greater depth on newsworthy subjects) [*]Marketplace Morning Report (self-explanatory) [*]Marketplace Tech (Marketplace's daily tech news round-up) [*]Martini Shot (the ruminations of a veteran television showrunner who got his start as a staff writer on Cheers and has kept working since) [*]Nerd Poker (Brian Posehn and his friends -- including comedians and a DM who worked on the Dragon Prince RPG -- play D&D) [*]Not Another D&D Podcast (four College Humor/Dimension20 veterans play D&D, although the OGL fiasco appears to have made them Pathfinder 2 curious) [*]NPR News Now (the top of the hour 5 minute news update, which I have set to appear at the head of my drive-time playlist) [*]The Official Hacks Podcast (the only HBO show podcast I listen to) [*]On the Media (a weekly NPR show on the media industry) [*]Post Reports (a deep dive into Washington Post stories) [*]Science Vs.

(extremely well done science fiction podcast; Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by way of solarpunk) [*]State of Ukraine (NPR's latest story on the war in Ukraine) [*]This Day in Esoteric Political History (a former FiveThirtyEight podcaster and two history professors do deep dives into little-known moments in history) [*]The Thrilling Adventure Hour (the podcast version of a long-running stage show in Los Angeles, where a troupe of actors and B-tier celebrities perform new stories in the style of old-time radio, typically with a genre twist) [*]The Times (the LA Times' daily deep dive into a news story they've reported on) [*]Today's Top Tune (KCRW) [*]Up First (NPR's 10 minute morning news show) [*]Welcome to Night Vale (one of the first big podcast hits, centering on a radio show from a strange paranormal town in the California desert -- probably -- where everything weird can and does happen) [*]What Roman Mars Can Learn About Con Law (the host and creator of 99% Invisible and a law professor use current events to discuss constitutional law) [*]The World (PRI's daily world news show) [/LIST] Luckily, a lot of these shows are weekly or monthly.
