Some great podcasts; Parenting Hell - two comedians started this a ‘lockdown parenting hell’ and it helped keep me sane through the last two years knowing that other parents have similar ridiculous scenarios to deal with a regular basis.
Elis James and John robins - have a couple of different shoes with different radios shows but all are hilarious and well worth a listen. I’d highly recommend their readings from Tony Blackburns autobiography.
Smartless podcast is how I start my week off every Monday. Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes have a very unique chemistry that always entertains.
I’ve been listening to office ladies since I’m obsessed with that show and Conan o brien needs a friend, I love to laugh and can’t get too deep into what’s going on in the world, it’s depressing when I do.

I'm currently listening to a podcast on Spotify called "5-4." The hosts are lawyers that use legal expertise to complain about United States Supreme Court decisions. They recently did an "emergency" podcast covering the leaked draft opinion of Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which would over turn Roe v. Wade. The podcast serves as an anger outlet for many frustrating court decisions over the years, aided by legal opinions offered by the hosts.
As a big fan of the hit television show Scrubs and the awards winning film series The Lord of the Ring, two of my favorite podcasts have been Fake Doctors, Real Friends with Zach & Donald and The Friendship Onion. But for good old fashion true crime, The Last Podcast On The Left is my go-to.
Too many too many podcasts, Endless Honeymoon being one of them. But one that I always go back to is BBC's In Our Time where this old stodger lightning round interviews three academics about a very specific topic or historic person or concept and you learn so much so fast. My favourite thing is the last moment of the podcast is when the producer comes in and cuts the interview short by asking for coffee or tea orders and you get a couple seconds where these leaders in their fields give a very specific very British order for tea.
Anything that adrienne maree brown is pretty much an auto-listen for me, so her podcasts are: How to Survive the End of the World and Octavia's Parables (chapter-by-chapter of Parables by OEB)
I'm loving SPECTATORS... with each page we want more and more hahaha
Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend, or Smartless are both always funny and never concerning current events.
Big fan of Our Opinions are Correct—Annalee and Charlie Jane are smart, funny, and always entertaining.
Office Hours Live with Tim Heidecker never fails to make me laugh, and they have had some great musical guests recently.

I have been listening to Off Panel and Inside You. Both are great!
I cant wait to seen the next pages of Spectators!
Great Job, Brian, Nico and all the staff!
Last Podcast on the Left has been a must listen for a while but some of their gold star episodes might make you sick.
No Such Thing as a Fish over here. Mostly for the title alone, but the interesting facts content makes up for everything else.
