Just curious what are the top 3 podcasts you listened to this year on whatever platform. Antennapod released a feature that summarized your year and well the amount of hours kinda surprised me in a good way, haha.

Edit: Mine were

  • The let’s read podcast
  • Therapy gecko
  • How To Survive
  • cRazi_man

    Awesome, thanks. Here are some of the ones I would recommend:

    The Reith Lectures - Lecture series from an expert on a topic. Tend to release episodes close to the end of the year only (episodes are releasing now talking about the state of democracy). The backlog is worth listening to.

    The Dream- investigative podcast looked at pyramid schemes and the world of wellness.

    The Jordan Harbinger Show - In-depth conversations with people at the top of their game.

    Playing God - Medical ethics. Life-and-death dilemmas. New medical technologies. Controversial treatments.

    Hot Money: The New Narcos - The backlog has excellent episodes about investigating the financing structures in the porn industry. They’re just preparing to launch a new series now but I don’t know what they’re going to look at now.

    You Are Not So Smart - about reasoning, biases, judgments, and decision-making.

    The Happiness Lab - the science of happiness

    Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas

    CrowdScience - Listener questions about a science issue that the presenters then try to find experts to answer

    The Real Story - examination of some current event issue.

    The Inquiry - gets beyond the headlines to explore the trends, forces and ideas shaping the world.

    The Infinite Monkey Cage - a witty, irreverent look at the world through scientists

    Darknet Diaries - true stories of the dark side of the Internet

    Revisionist History - Malcolm Gladwelllooks at things overlooked and the misunderstood

    Owls at Dawn - Two dudes from SoCal who studied philosophy, politics, and religion around the globe who decided to start a podcast where we could bullshit with impunity.

    If Books Could Kill - Two guys talk about books that are popular and tear apart how bad they are. I mostly find you don’t need to have read the book and the books tend to be pretty popular.

    The Forum - The programme that explains the present by exploring the past. Expert panel discussion about any subject area.

    Law in Action - legal magazine programme, featuring reports and discussion on matters relating to law (UK based)

    All Consuming - explore our culture of consumption through products that have changed the world.

    Sound of Gaming - video game soundtracks and an interview with a sound designer from a popular video game.

    Bad People - true crime with a criminologist and a comedian. This show has ended but the backlog is great.
