A podcast I like to listen to that hasn't been mentioned yet: Opt Out
Opt Out is a podcast where I sit down with passionate people to learn why privacy matters to them, the tools and techniques theyβve found and leveraged, and where we encourage and inspire others towards personal privacy and data-sovereignty.
I have been making a weekly podcast about amateur radio since 15 May 2011. It started life as "What use is an F-call?" and in 2015 was renamed "Foundations of Amateur Radio". I've made over 700 episodes so far.
Starting in the wonderful hobby of Amateur or HAM Radio can be daunting and challenging but can be very rewarding. Every week I look at a different aspect of the hobby, how you might fit in and get the very best from the 1000 hobbies that Amateur Radio represents.
It's available as audio, text, email, RSS, YouTube and Morse code and can be found on many podcast platforms. It's also available on amateur radio repeaters, as eBooks and on lemmy.radio and it can be downloaded from the Internet Archive.

*Stuff you should know" is a fun podcast, two guys go over a random topic.
They aren't experts in anything, but it's fun to hear them try to explain what they've learned about everything from how cranes work to darker things like the Tulsa race riots.
Omnibus is also good in this vein. Ken Jennings and his friend go over some weird and obscure history you might not know about. It's not very in-depth a lot, more factoids, but always pretty cool.
Josh and Chuck are awesome. I enjoy how they slip in false info jokes, and go off on tangents
"Ty and That Guy" - Ty Franck (one of the writers of The Expanse books) and Wes Chatham (actor of Amos Burton on the show) talk about sci-fi.
"SPINES" - supernatural fiction about an amnesiac tracking down broken people with paranormal abilities, written in an audio diary format. It gets a little gay.
"The White Vault" - supernatural fiction about a multinational team that travels to Svalbard to recover a lost expedition and encounters a monster.

The Dumb Zone. I promise. I pay for an annual sub. Good fun with some sports mixed in.
- Omnibus
- Darknet Diaries
Just started listening to Darknet Diaries last week. It's really good, right from ep1.
Radio lab is great :)
I would love to know some Chinese one's too
- Grumpy Old Geeks. A podcast of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame
I really enjoyed the early episodes of
How I built this with Guy Raz
You are not so smart podcast
Basically a book club about psychology books
While I don't agree with all his politics, I do enjoy his style. He asks a question then he shuts up and lets the other side talk.
Doesn't interrupt.
@ShawnRyanShow On YouTube.
Last Podcast on the Left is my go to for true crime and paranormal related topics.
I have honestly never listened to one, so I can't help here, but interested to see if any suggestions sound up my street.
All of the "The Rest is..." Podcasts are great that I've heard- Entertainment, Football, Politics, Classified, Money.
No Such Thing As a Fish by the QI elves.
The Infinite Monkey Cage
Curious Cases
Chalk Radio from MIT OpenCourseWare
I really enjoy this podcast. It's great to hear that the professors at MIT share their passion and expertise with students and the wider world. One of my favorite episodes is Prof. Eric Grimson's story about making computer science more accessible to everyone. It's really motivating to think that there are so many talented teachers and resources available, which makes me feel confident and excited to keep learning on my own.
