I’m looking to stock up on podcasts, whether in Mandarin, French or English. Don’t worry about my tastes I’ll sort it out later
But share good podcasts in other languages if you know any (it might be useful for other people)

. Mad At The Internet
Almost Plausible is a show where three friends take ordinary objects (for example, a paperclip, a ceiling fan, or a toilet brush) and create movie plots based on those objects.
Full disclaimer: This is my podcast.
The eastern border https://theeasternborder.lv/
A podcast about history and current events in the post Soviet sphere geared towards a western audience by a Latvian journalist. Unfortunately one current topic dominates for the last 3 years. Please take a guess, which it might be.
I looked through a number of comments and am surprised not to see Let’s Learn Everything.
Every two weeks the hosts cover two topics in a lot of depth, anything from quantum mechanics to swear words.
I don’t listen to podcasts that much, but I am a big fan of the Lingthusiasm podcast. I was actually introduced to it by none other than Tom Scott (although he doesn’t really host it himself).
Well there’s your problem podcast. A podcast about engineering disasters; with slides.
Lateral with Tom Scott It’s a great non-political podcast.

There is only one podcast truly worth your valuable time, and it’s the Get Skrek’d Podcast - “A shot-by-shot analysis of the award-winning film, Shrek 2 by your tour guide and host, Logan Flinders.”
No other podcasts compare. No other podcasts matter.
Get Shrek’d is love. Get Shrek’d is life.
I’ve enjoyed Blowback.
I think most of the ones I usually mention in threads like this have been covered, but a glance through hasn’t shown me
I’ll admit that this one may take a minute to really get, but once it locks in you’ll love it forever.
It’s basically just an Irish author, comedian, and former rapper telling stories, talking about mental health (he also has a masters in psychology), and interviewing people. One week he’ll be interviewing a couple of lads about insects, the next he has Cillian Murphy on. Last week was an hour about how he ended up in an office canteen covered in black hair dye, holding a bag of lemons.
It’s a wonderful podcast hug every week, and I can’t recommend it enough.
I’m surprised no-one has mentioned “if books could kill”.
They basically tear all their top seller self help books to shreds. It’s very entertaining and actually really smart too.
It is a great podcast. But all of Michael Hobbes podcasts are. He still co hosts maintenance phase and now Sarah is running you are wrong about alone.
100%. I still listen to you’re wrong about too.
Mike Duncan’s Revolutions podcast (especially series 3 covering the French Revolution) and his The History of Rome series.
