As for the recommendations, I find that surprisingly often it works to tell the bot that. Start by asking it what it’s getting from the list, then correct it before it creates the new one. And ask it to justify itself; if nothing else you’ll be able to skip a few.
OP’s topics lean more tech and programming related. Reply All is kind of a tech show but as the description implies it’s more of a society show centered around tech topics. It’s also, as grandparent implies, one of the biggest and more mainstream tech ancillary podcasts. It is quite good by the way, if you’ve never listened to it.
I would have wanted more technical and deep cuts based on my recommendations
