Stuff you should know
Linux after dark
Vulgar history
Land of the giants is one of my favorites
Only about 1 season a year but each season is about the rise (and sometimes fall) of big tech companies
Unexplainable is cool too, about weird sciencey things that we don't have an explanation for
I was a huge fan of The No Sleep Podcast specially during the early seasons. But recently they've been trying so much unnecessary stuff which kind of takes away the whole fun of listening to it. They also started advertising brands after every story. Definitely recommend listening to the first few seasons though if you like horror.
Shagged Married Annoyed
I like brittish comedy, but I'm not brittish myself :)
We're Alive is a great story! Top notch production quality also.
If you enjoy HHGTTG, the podcast Star Tripper, has a similar vibe. Good story too.
Decoder Ring Theatre, phenomenal audio drama podcast that got better as time went on
The Dollop and Casefile True Crime are my two favorites
I have three that I listen to: Distractible, Brain Leak, and Go! My Favorite Sports Team.
Thartharaa, stories from history told in a way that makes them very moving, bro like I cried one time or two
I really admire these two β Radiolab and 70 over 70
They had me at "Ron Stampler hides in his pants."
Kerning Cultures should be on the list of everyone who likes 99PI and This American Life. It's like those two shows had a baby and it grew up in the Arab world.
For Spanish speakers I recommend 'Las Hijas de Felipe', about medieval/modern History (herstory?). They usually cover mundane things, rather than battles or empires.
Three major ones for me: Dudesy, What's It Called, and Never Seen It. All great comedy podcasts!
CodeSwitch Pop Culture Happy Hour Stuff You Should Know Stuff You missed in History Class Wait Wait Donβt Tell Me (more of a radio show but I like it anyway)
I started getting into True Crime podcasts. So far, I'm liking these
- Crime Junkie
- True Crime Couple
- Casefile
- Unsolved Murders: True Crime Stories (Although I don't listen to this anymore because it's a Spotify exclusive. It is pretty good tho.)
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
S1 and s2 of in the dark
Omnibus, if forced to choose only one.
Hidden Brain, Search Engine, The Knowledge Project
