    My podcasts fall into two groups:

    Linux/Tech

    • Destination Linux
    • Late Night Linux and its brethren
    • Linux GameCast and its sister show LWDW

    Urbanism

    • The War on Cars
    • The Urbanist Agenda
    • Strong Towns Podcast
    • Upzoned

    They release on almost a daily schedule, so I always have something to listen to.

    If you like short and sweet (most eps. 20–30 min) and don’t mind being sad that it’s discontinued:

    A World Without

    Two buddies discuss what a world without a particular thing (one thing per episode) would be like. No color? No chairs? No numbers? They tackle these questions in often unapologetically unscientific, and always creative and hysterical ways.

    • Spout Lore (actual play dungeon world podcast which is an absolute blast of hilarity and wholesomeness)
    • Dungeon and daddies (first season is a masterpiece, after that, your mileage may vary, they are going too often in the “too raunchy” for my taste but there are some good episodes still)
    • Adventure Zones I recently dropped. I basically enjoy only the one off they do in the old West with ghosts and such. The main campaign is subpar since quite some time
    • Not Another D&D podcast, I’m catching up with the first season still, sometimes they go for the “over the top” for no reason but there are some good moments. I absolutely loathe the sponsors they use (like fucking turbotaxes and other exploiting companies)

    I had others but over time the quality dropped unfortunately.

    I used podcast for infotainment and keeping updated with work related stuff as well once, but since the pandemic I don’t commute anymore and the time for podcast is basically just for when I cook or clean.

    I got fascinated by the Supreme Court and that led me to a lot of political and law podcasts. I am notably not a lawyer so I don’t know why I’m doing so many.

    5-4 ALAB (if they ever post) pod save America pod save the world sawbones

    I Said No Gifts - nice, low-key conversations with funny people, great format.

    Midnight Burger - wonderful sci-fi story that draws from lots of material, pretty funny, great cast and production.

    No Such Thing as a Fish - 4 hosts discuss interesting facts in what’s often equally as hilarious as it is informative.

    Bananas - 2 funny dudes discuss weird or funny news headlines.

    These are all good, light-hearted podcasts for when you want something a bit softer to listen to :)

    • Stories of Scotland - Jenny and Annie talk about Scottish history, culture, nature, and heritage in lovely accents and sometimes they get very silly
    • Irish and Celtic Music Podcast - by Marc Gunn, the ‘celtfather’… I love a good jig
    • Stuff You Should Know - stories of curious and strange things… a bit US-centric but they do ‘translate’ units (e.g. feet to meters) and I appreciate that
    • The compassion Initiative - Just two guys from Brisbane talking compassion, with Stan and James, also nice accents
    • Me the Mountain - Acoustic guitar music I listen on the bus in the morning half asleep; there are no new episodes since 2021 but I listen to the remaining ones on repeat
    • WTF with Marc Maron - the godfather of podcasts, nice chats, sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry…

    …and for my German fellow lemmys:

    • Haschimitenfürst - Der Bobcast - für alle ??? (Hörspiel-)Süchtigen
