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)

It's a watch along podcast for quite possibly the lowest depths of US reality TV, Mountain Monsters.

Their other podcast The Dogg Zzone 9000 is at least as funny, though it is dependent upon which cursed media artifact from the wrong dimension which they're reviewing.

A podcast I like to listen to that hasn't been mentioned yet: Opt Out

Opt Out is a podcast where I sit down with passionate people to learn why privacy matters to them, the tools and techniques they’ve found and leveraged, and where we encourage and inspire others towards personal privacy and data-sovereignty.

*Stuff you should know" is a fun podcast, two guys go over a random topic.

They aren't experts in anything, but it's fun to hear them try to explain what they've learned about everything from how cranes work to darker things like the Tulsa race riots.

Omnibus is also good in this vein. Ken Jennings and his friend go over some weird and obscure history you might not know about. It's not very in-depth a lot, more factoids, but always pretty cool.

Josh and Chuck are awesome. I enjoy how they slip in false info jokes, and go off on tangents

"Ty and That Guy" - Ty Franck (one of the writers of The Expanse books) and Wes Chatham (actor of Amos Burton on the show) talk about sci-fi.

"SPINES" - supernatural fiction about an amnesiac tracking down broken people with paranormal abilities, written in an audio diary format. It gets a little gay.

"The White Vault" - supernatural fiction about a multinational team that travels to Svalbard to recover a lost expedition and encounters a monster.

  • Blowback (documentary style show about US interventions in different places - more interesting than it sounds)

Just started listening to Darknet Diaries last week. It's really good, right from ep1.

Radio lab is great :)

I would love to know some Chinese one's too

I really enjoyed the early episodes of

You are not so smart podcast

Basically a book club about psychology books

While I don't agree with all his politics, I do enjoy his style. He asks a question then he shuts up and lets the other side talk.

Doesn't interrupt.

@ShawnRyanShow On YouTube.

Last Podcast on the Left is my go to for true crime and paranormal related topics.

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 2 points 1 day ago

I have honestly never listened to one, so I can't help here, but interested to see if any suggestions sound up my street.

[–] blackstrat@lemmy.fwgx.uk 2 points 1 day ago

All of the "The Rest is..." Podcasts are great that I've heard- Entertainment, Football, Politics, Classified, Money.

No Such Thing As a Fish by the QI elves.

Chalk Radio from MIT OpenCourseWare

I really enjoy this podcast. It's great to hear that the professors at MIT share their passion and expertise with students and the wider world. One of my favorite episodes is Prof. Eric Grimson's story about making computer science more accessible to everyone. It's really motivating to think that there are so many talented teachers and resources available, which makes me feel confident and excited to keep learning on my own.
