Basically all of The Anthropocene Reviewed: https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/anthropocene-reviewed

Beautiful essays by John Green. I only started listening at the end of December.

I've also been checking out the Political Philosophy Podcast, and I've liked what I've heard till now: https://www.politicalphilosophypodcast.com/

Again, I can't choose specific episodes, but Heavyweight is pretty amazing too: https://gimletmedia.com/shows/heavyweight

I discovered The Anthropocene Reviewed last year. My favorite review is Tetris: “Tetris is a game about time and space. Time is always speeding up, with blocks falling faster and faster, and space is always filling in. There is no winning, Tetris always ends the same way, no matter how expertly you place the blocks. You play until you die. It takes five minutes to learn Tetris. It’s not grand or ambitious. It’s merely perfect.” — https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/anthropocene-reviewed/e...

Special mention for the Kauaʻi ʻōʻō: https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/anthropocene-reviewed/e...
