The Fall of Civilizations is hauntingly beautiful
A few not yet mentioned:
- Well There’s Your Problem - a podcast about engineering disasters
- Hard Fork - a weekly tech news show, with banter similar to what you could find on Reply All before that was ended
- The War on Cars - an urbanism-podcast
- The Urbanist Agenda - another urbanism-podcast, by the creator behind Not Just Bikes
- The Climate Denier’s Playbook - a climate-podcast
- Hyperfixed - by one of the hosts of Reply All
And a vote for previously mentioned podcasts:
- 99% Invisible - a podcast about design, arguably my favourite
- Darknet Diaries - a podcast about cybersecurity
The only one I listen to anymore is the WAN show. I just never have time to listen to them anymore so it usually takes 3-4 days to finish it.
The materialism podcast has stopped, but is absolutely worth listening to the backlog. It’s a material science podcast.
What’s Left of Philosophy? - Good for elevating your philosophy game.

Darknet diaries. It’s about anything security, spy, hacking, some networking bots, etc. do NOT need to be a nerd to love it, recent episode was a guy who started tracking stolen bikes and found a crazy web of criminals though patterns.
Very well spoken, very well edited, very easy to listen to, even if you’re technically challenged.
Beautiful Stories From Anonymous People, basically someone calls in to talk about anything they want with the host (comedian Chris Gethard). The caller can hang up any time, the host must hang up after exactly one hour.
People call in to talk about so many different things, and Gerhard is really good at getting people to open up in a very genuine yet casual manner.

best podcast

Lots of great suggestions. If you want one that will make you mad, Swindled is a great one about white collar crime. Podcaster is left leaning (outwardly so) and it’s (sometimes) therapeutic to hear him talk about some of the topics.
Darknet Diaries, it’s about hacking and each episode is a different story and has interviews with people that were involved in information security incidents, either the ones doing the hacking and/or those defending from and responding to attacks
Great pod
