I used to listen to long form essays on Youtube. My favourite ones either break down the history of a conspiracy, teach me something new and cool about the world, or explore a hobby I've never been interested in.

I don't like the ones about killers or heavy drama. I also don't like podcasts that spend half the time reading the latest news from [topic] in verbatim .

What are some podcasts you can recommend me while I chip away at other things?

You’re dead to me - history, different expert and comedian guest every week, very good

No Such Thing as a Fish - superb trivia show

Sci-Show Tangents - “lightly competitive science knowledge showcase”

A Podcast of Unnecessary Detail - science and math facts around a random topic from 3 very smart people

The Infinite Monkey Cage - science and comedy with Brian Cox and guests

Journey to the Microcosmos - interesting things in our microscopic world

    I'll second No Such Thing As A Fish. Its four researchers giving their four favorite facts of the week. It is always informative at the very least and usually they're pretty funny/entertaining as well!
