Hi,

I'm a big fan of podcasts and I've been enjoying "Against the Rules" and "Darknet Diaries" lately.

Now, I want to hear your recommendations! What podcasts do you love and why? Let's build an epic list of must-listen podcasts together.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Ologies by Ally Ward.

She basically interviews random professors and authors. Anyone who studies something. And then asks all the dumb questions that I'd be too embarrassed to ask, in order to understand what it is that they study, why they study it, what we know about the topic.

She's got several hundred episodes from black holes and dark matter, to fire ecology, to (one of my favorites) Ferroequinology (the study of iron horses, trains).

Really great energy, great questions. Highly recommend.
