I used to be annoyed by them, but I get it now. I started listening to them at work, it's pretty nice to find a highly researched audio only format so I can focus on my work and learn something I care about

Sounds like good podcasts

99% of them are just people taking out of their ass though

oh yea, I've highly curated my podcasts at work. At least 80% scripted, roughly 20-80 minutes long, no, few, or unimportant visuals, detailed analysis of the topic, and maintains a sense of humor. I very rarely add a new one to the rotation

Care to share some recommendations? That sounds nice. I also struggle to get into podcasts cause its like wadding through a sea of garbage to find a lost ring.

I use the term podcast loosely, the only thing available to me at work is youtube so I also tend to include video essays and other things not considered podcasts. This is a list of some of my favorites.
