I used to listen to long form essays on Youtube. My favourite ones either break down the history of a conspiracy, teach me something new and cool about the world, or explore a hobby I've never been interested in.

I don't like the ones about killers or heavy drama. I also don't like podcasts that spend half the time reading the latest news from [topic] in verbatim .

What are some podcasts you can recommend me while I chip away at other things?

    I like Short History Of…. It’s written well, interesting from the first sentence, and read well. The topics vary widely, so you have plenty to choose from.

    Also The Soundtrack Show might be interesting for you, not sure if that fits your needs.
