I'm big into DnD podcasts, so Dragon Friends (Australian comedians doing DnD), The Adventure Zone (McElroy boys & dad doing DnD), Not Another DnD Podcast, etc.

Matt Levine's Money Stuff has a podcast with his friend and reporter Katie Greifeld, which is a lot of fun chatting about Money Stuff in an informative way.

I go through cycles of being obsessed with Blank Check (which goes through director's filmographies), and often more specifically, The Phantom Podcast (and sequels) where they watched The Phantom Menace over and over again under the guise of it being the only Star Wars movie.

At this point a significant portion of his brain is probably fully allocated towards optimizing for the most engaging YouTube videos possible. The…

I agree, even more generally, in that if you think about any medium from a creator perspective there is so much more depth to it.

Pop music is not my thing, but I read a book about it, and the max martins and production function of these giant hits, and its endlessly fascinating optimization problems.

Security Now with Steve Gibson. Great podcast about the latest goings on in the tech world and often diverts into neat deep dives into technical topics. https://twit.tv/shows/security-now
