oddly specific objection aside, where podcasting really shines is fiction. it's the modern version of the radio drama. fiction podcasts like Welcome to Night Vale and Find Us Alive have narratives that are tailor-made for episodic audio and would not work in any other medium. a good fiction podcast is truly wonderful to listen to

Not exactly what you're talking about, but LeVar Burton Reads is amazing, too. It's like Reading Rainbow for grownups.

I’d toss The Magnus Archives on that list too, especially since it had a full 5 season arc with satisfying conclusion.

A “sequel” series just started, too! It was good from what I listened to

And I'll just add the Lovecraft Investigations to the list. Absolutely brilliant series.
