I'm excitedly waiting for S3 of the Blowback podcast [0]. The first 2 were incredibly good. [0] https://blowback.show/
I heard an interview with Brendan and Noah on the WarNerd podcast. They were clearly pumping their new season on the Korean War and I came away pumped. I might have to check this out.
2.5 Admins - with Jim Salter from Ars. It’s a great sys admin podcast BSD Now - everything *BSD. Quality has declined quite a bit since Benedict joined, though. Corecursive - some really great stories on software development. The recent one on debugging LISP in deep space is great. Changelog - Sometimes decent interviews with founders and in-depth tech interview. Avoid JS Party though, it’s really daunting. Cyber - s…
I listen to a lot of podcast episodes (over 5,000 in the past 5 years [1]), but I don’t subscribe to podcasts. The way I listen to podcasts is similar to how I consume web contents: Search by topics/people, and Find podcast episodes to listen, then move on, not subscribing to podcasts. Search by topics/people, and Find web pages to read, then move on, not bookmarking websites. For podcast recommendations, I’d suggest…
This response is annoying since it didn't answer the OP's question and instead just promoted your own product. I get sharing your stuff when it's relevant, but couldn't you at least share some podcasts you've enjoyed before pitching your site?

Why are you trying to build a habit of consuming media? Some people just don't care for them. That said, I listen to ATP, Comedy Bang Bang, and Roderick in the Line regularly. Much less than when I used to drive a car. It's entertainment, nothing more.
I'd say not all media is "bad". Much of the podcast suggestions in these comments are wholesome, or at least teach the listener something. That'd on a whole good, better than mindlessly listening to ads or news on the radio?

What am I missing about Dan Carlin? I'm 12 episodes [0] in and it's OK but not seeing why it's so revered. [0] https://www.dancarlin.com/product/hardcore-history-12-steppe...
You probably don't like audiobooks on history. He's just great at telling captivating historical stories and finding interesting historical angles. If that's not your thing (or if you have a PhD in historical studies and think he's crazy/wrong/too reductive/...), that's totally OK. By the way, he also has a podcast called Common Sense, which is focusing on politics (as the name suggests).
