* Trashfuture: A British politics podcast about the future is trash. Insightful, if a little madcap at times.
* Boonta Vista: Australian politics. The main host has an amazing radio voice.
* Citations Needed: Politics, helps analyse the media and its tropes to give you a better handle on issues and how to engage with them.
* Previously in Europe: European politics, often takes time to highlight issues and countries that do not get much mass media play.
* Revolutions: History podcast - really well constructed nuggets breaking down revolutions throughout history. I personally fled to this after getting exhausted by Hardcore History.
* Shift-F1: A formula 1 podcast. Both hosts are passionate and also have different levels of knowledge about the sport and history which engenders good discussion. The schedule is super disrupted right now due to on one of the hosts having a baby.
* The Irish Passport: Irish politics- more a series of investigative essays than "What is on this week???", very good and earnest topics and coverage.
* The Bugle: Political Satire. What John Oliver did before he got big. Andy Zaltzmann is an amazing satirist, and should be more widely appreciated. Warning: Puns
* Waypoint Radio: Video games from a set of interesting voices. Can be very Marmite due to how blinkered the hosts can be on some topics/ with certain people.
* 99% Invisible: See other comments!
And finally: * Chapo Trap House: Political comedy. You know what this is.
* Reel Politik: Like Chapo, but recorded by angry young Brits. Awful sound quality, sometimes a golden nugget hidden within. Somehow gets some amazing guests. Listening to this gets you targeted by the Daily Mail, probably.
