As per the title, I think some discussion on this is good, but I'm also actively looking to broaden my horizons when it comes to podcasts. My podcast feed is pretty heavily current events and fantasy football based, and whilst the fantasy football can stay, I want to move away from so many current events podcasts on account of me wanting to pay a little less attention to current events generally.
So to answer the question myself, current events wise I listen to Politics Unpacked and the Story from the Times, and then two related podcasts called The Bunker and Oh God What Now?, both of which come from the same producer and really took off during the Brexit years. There's then a mix of general non fiction, including More Or Less (the BBC statistics podcast), Sliced Bread (which examines whether consumer products are as good as they say they are), and ZOE, which is a science and nutrition podcast that I would recommend to absolutely everyone, and Stuff You Should Know.
On the fantasy football side of things, I listen to Establish The Run and Yahoo mostly, with some FantasyPros mixed in. Might diversify that again later in the year.
I also listen to a range of legal podcasts that I doubt are of much interest to people here, as well as Myths and Legends and various true crime podcasts, though I haven't listened to any true crime in a little while.
My diversification attempts have so far taken me to the Times Tech Podcast, and then I've also started looking at gaming podcasts. I listened to the year end episode of Get Played, which was fine but a little too much comedy and not enough gaming for me, and I've listened to the two Nextlander game of the year podcasts, which was much more what I was looking for. I have the Core lined up to listen to as well, but haven't done that yet.
So, what about you guys?
