Joe Rogan Experience
A genuine question: can someone explain to me the appeal? I tried a number of Joe Rogan episodes, and the long, unstructured format of just "shooting shit" was deeply offputing to me.

#112Many great suggestions in this thread. I would add the following, omitting those that are already mentioned:
Intelligence Squared Podcast
- Great debate-style episodes on amazing topics (such as "Should the west engage with Russia," or "Should the west engage with Saudis") mixed with interviews of book authors. Must listen!
- Very deep interviews on topics with crystalized rationality. Another must listen!
Rework
HBR IdeaCast
Stay Tuned with Preet

#113I didn't see The Privacy, Security, & OSINT Show by Michale Bazell. Any opinions on it?
The Drive - Peter Attia.
Happy Path Programming - Bruce Eckel
Re: Ask HN: What podcasts are you listening to?
#114The Infinite Monkey Cage - Science with comedy. I’m sure a lot of people here would enjoy it.

#115BBC More or Less Behind the Stats. Making sense of the numbers that surround us.
BBC The Life Scientific - talks with leading scientists about their life and work.
BBC In Our Time - the ideas, people, and events that have shaped our world.
The History of English.
The History of England.
… and an embarrassingly high number of True Crime podcasts.

#116I'm currently doing an 18 hour drive and binging the Acquired podcast. Their analysis is excellent.

#117Prefer real academics to the intellectual dark web.
Re: Ask HN: What podcasts are you listening to?
#118Huberman Lab - Science, Education, and Health & Fitness.
Some comment called it "the manual to life" which is a pretty good summary imo.

#119LEX FRIDMAN - Lex interviews many guests about a particular topic/interest in a row and then releases several episodes on the matter, e.g, artificial intelligence, bitcoin, war, love, etc.
TIM FERRISS - Long-time fan, and I believe this was one of the shows that encouraged me to start my own podcast. He's interested in learning methods from top-performers and dissect them in the show so you can get actionable advice.
CAL NEWPORT's Deep Questions - He's been answering guest calls and always adds a more conceptual block to develop some ideas from his own writing, mainly about personal productivity, deep work, career advice, and digital minimalism.
