I've got to say, I've moved almost entirely to consuming information via podcasts and Yang Speaks is one of my top ones.

1. Find some smart people/organizations you trust 2. Listen to them daily

You can also directly listen or subscribe to his podcast here: https://yangspeaks.com/

I refuse to support what Spotify is trying to do to the podcast market.

Replace a standard you can use with any client with... Spotify.

[EDIT] incidentally, I'm about 90% sure they're gonna succeed and open podcasts are doomed to decline, though they'll not go away immediately. Though I do have non-computer-nerd friends who are refusing to follow their podcasts as they move, one by one, to closed platforms, usually Spotify. Still, I don't think it'll be enough to stop it.
