Dave Anthony is a big baseball fan so he'll occasionally do some Dollop baseball episodes. He did like a three parter on Ricky Henderson last year, I think.
Here's a reddit comment with a bunch of them, you'll have to find the individual eps.

Bizarre Albums is fun for a glimpse at specific periods for artists. Your Favorite Band Sucks is less historical than that, but still a good listen.
Bizarre Albums had a good episode on Neil Young's Trans and Your Favorite Band Sucks knocks it out of the park on stuff they still kinda like, so maybe there Bon Jovi episode.
Just remembered, one of the hosts has another podcast on Country music history called Cocaine and Rhinestones.
I do not, actually. I wouldn't entirely doubt it, though. I'd imagine most of it is him not checking his sources well enough or just going by heresay, based on having friends and family in the industry.
I haven't listened to it in a while, but And Introducing by Chris and Molly Wade (yep, the Chapo producer) is pretty entertaining. I've mostly listened to the older episodes that are focused on books about musicians, but I think they've pivoted to doing quite a few artist interviews more recently
If you’re already into tides, which is great, you might enjoy “fall of civilizations” on YouTube. It’s about the lived experiences of those in the final days of a collapse. It has similarly high production value and vignette quality. Anything with Mike Duncan is also great.
If you can handle brain worms, there’s also that Italian guy that’s friends with Carlin. I quit more episodes than I finish, but his latest series on killing Mussolini has me tempted to give him a fair shake (again, there aren’t enough actual historians with podcasts so I keep coming back).
