Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I used to listen to a lot of podcasts back when I worked in an office but now the only one I listen to on a regular basis is
Trash Taste
I'll also sometimes listen to
Safety Third
Well all I'm going to say is RIP Hello Internet
I'm a little late to the party here, but I don't see it mentioned already so I have to recommend "372 Pages We'll Never Get Back". Mike Nelson (MST3K, Rifftrax) and Conor Lastoka (Rifftrax) give really detailed reviews of "books they expect not to like", aka badly-written books. Think Mystery Science Theater 3000, but with books. They're on episode 152 and the episodes run ~2 hours. Great for long car rides.
Everything Everywhere Daily, and The Constant: a history of getting things wrong.
Ok buddy, the podcast 'Mysterious Universe' is the show that radicalized me. One of the hosts is a blackbelt in hatespeech. The other one is the founder of the Alien Hate League, Earths last and best defense against the Extradimensional threat and defender of Linda Moulton-Howe's fat mommy milkers
Two of my favorites
StarTalk by Neil DeGrasse Tyson
Andrew Huberman's podcast
Found my fitness by Rhonda Patrick, for nutritional/exercise science. One of the few podcasts I know that are actually science based, with proper sources and all.
Political Gabfest, The Intelligence (Economist), the Briefing Room (BBC), Battleground Ukraine, The Rest is History, any of the History Hit stable, Ezra Klein Show, Club Random, The Poetry of Reality, History of English
Our Fake History
Decoding the Gurus
Conspirituality
I listen to a lot more but these are the ones where I don’t miss an episode.
Daniel & Jorge Explain the Universe (physics)
Trillbilly's Workers Party (politics)
Save Your Sanity (relationships w/ toxic people)
Freakonomics Radio (economics methods applied elsewhere)
Very surprised no-one mentioned History Unobscured
Cashing In with TJ Miller. The first 200 episodes or so have some of the funniest conversations I've ever heard; it's just two friends who are genuinely hilarious hanging out. After the first 200 episodes, the show is still good, but before that is what I would call the Golden age of the show.
