I like listening to people play RPGs. I mostly enjoy them playing Pokemon but have run out of them I used to listen to M&M and now listen to DnD.

I've been listening to a lot of This American Life this year. Gosh the stories are good.
Also this is pretty woowoo and the commercial part is really heinous but the Expanded podcast by To Be Magnetic is genuinely a really good self help podcast. It's a lot of white women in fedora schtick but their advice is actually really very good.

-Your Momβs House

For college football fans, Shutdown Fullcast, the only college football podcast. They occasionally accidentally talk about football.
F**k Face and Face Jam were my jam, but I have no clue how long theyβll be around what with Rooster Teeth being shut down. Otherwise, I try to keep up with Factually! as often as I can.
I'm a sucker for true crime, so I would recommend anything like that.
Then there's No Such Thing as a Fish, which I find fun. Star Talk... Oh and I've been listening to that one with Zach Braff and Donald Faison where they rewatch Scrubs together and talk about each episode together with a relevant guest per episode. The Scrubs one happens during the pandemic as well, which they talk about sometimes, and it's interesting to hear how they are reacting to it and losing their loved ones.

Serious Trouble, by the further hosts of (and essentially a continuation of) All the President's Lawyers.
Nocturne, by Vanessa Lowe. A podcast about the night, and things that happen during the night. Favorite episodes: Night ways about what ancient people use to do at night and how archeology and anthropology are changing their perceptions; Finding the Void about a guy who lived inside a mall; On the North Face about a guy who got lost while climbing Mount Shasta; What's Would You Do about the fear of night.
I usually check in on The Daily like once a week to see if anything interesting has been covered.
And This Week in Virology, which I got into during the pandemic. Usually the weekly update on Friday on what contagious diseases are currently circulating, and about half the time their Sunday episode.
