Any recommendations for sub 10min podcasts? I have a short commute and put it on 1.3 speed to get a dialy radio show.
I already have DW News, Tech News Briefing, Marketplace Tech, and a few like Male Your Damn Bed/Arnold's Punp Club.
Can always do with more.
I like to listen to NPR's "Up First", they would more or less be in that time range.
Do radio shows count? I don't know that anyone has mentioned A Way With Words, in which the hosts answer questions from callers on any and all language questions.
- The Regulation Podcast
- Distractible
- Girls who don't D&D
- My Brother, My Brother and Me
- Hello from the magic tavern
Another big fan of Darknet Diaries.
Ever since Michael Bazzle of Privacy, Security & OSINT stopped doing the podcasts, I'm still trying to find a replacement. Am listening to The Lockdown - Practical Privacy and Security in the mean time.
Also listen to Linux Game Cast.
Only one I listen to sometimes is https://www.bsdnow.tv/ since I'm an OpenBSD user and it's interesting to hear about other BSDs from time to time.
Dave and Chuck "The Freak" and Well There's Your Problem.
Mainly listen to Australian podcast cause am one and find them more relatable. Listen to others as well but most the others already been mentioned. All are comedy. Faves are:
Mid flight brawl
Hamish and Andy
Mat and Alex all day breakfast
Yeah good
I'd recommend Boonta Vista to make your down-under fix complete.

Not huge on podcasts but I enjoy The Casual Criminalist.
UNCANNY on BBC4
I like On Taking Pictures a lot. Nice podcast that really sparked my interest in photography about 10 years ago.
I try to stay away from political podcasts these days because I'm just too burnt out.
