Class yourself as a nerd?

Hosts Marco Arment, Casey Liss, and John Siracusa add just enough humor to keep things from getting dry, whilst most definitely bringing a passion for all things nerdy. The episodes are pretty long at just over two hours each, making this a great podcast to settle down to on an evening in — something we all seem to be enjoying a lot of lately.
How Did This Get Played?
We could easily have put this podcast in the comedy section, but since it’s all about the very worst and weirdest video games, we’ve added it here instead. Fans of How Did This Get Made? will love How Did This Get Played? which takes games like The Twilight Zone Text Adventure and Deadly Premonition and dives deep into what makes them weird or terrible — or sometimes, great.

Their thoughts on toilet comfort, Billy Joel cosplay, and gargoyles might not be the most appropriate, but they will make you laugh.
How Did This Get Made?
Three comedians get together, often with their comedian friends, and watch some of the worst movies ever made. It’s like Mystery Science Theater 3000 for the radio, minus the robots and the heavy focus on B movies. In fact, part of what’s so hilarious about How Did This Get Made? is that many of the crappy movies were intended to be blockbusters. Winter’s Tale, anyone?
Attitudes!
Hosts Erin Gibson and Bryan Safi discuss the issues most important to women and gays with hilarious irreverence. Often explicit, always germane, Attitudes! rightfully calls out bigotry and sexism within a tightly rolled comedic wrapper.
The Adventure Zone
The McElroy brothers (Justin, Travis, and Griffin), hosts of My Brother, My Brother & Me, have recruited their dad to chronicle their adventures through various Dungeons & Dragons campaigns in The Adventure Zone.

True Crime
Firebug
Hosted by Academy Award-winning documentarian and founder of Crime Story Media, Kary Antholis, and executive produced and edited by Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated storyteller, filmmaker, and podcaster Marc Smerling of Truth Media, Firebug is a part-true crime, part-fiction podcast that’s a thrilling listen. This is the true story of how a novel’s manuscript circulating in Hollywood helped reveal the origins of LA’s catastrophic fires in the early 1990s.
As a serial arsonist, or “firebug” terrorized Southern California’s neighborhoods for a decade, setting businesses alight in broad daylight and killing four people, a manuscript entitled “Points of Origin” started circulating in Hollywood. Telling the story of a fictional arson investigator on the trail of a serial arsonist, the manuscript quickly fell into the hands of investigators once it was realized that the fires described sounded a lot like the ones set in real life. But was the manuscript a work of fiction or the confession of a serial arsonist? With a mix of cinematic sound design and archival and new footage, Firebug takes you down the rabbit hole in six exciting episodes.
International Infamy
This “true crime world tour” podcast is hosted by Ashley Flowers, host of Very Presidential and Supernatural.

One of the most popular crime podcasts worldwide, Australian True Crime dives deep into the most horrific, mysterious, and disturbing true crime cases to come out of Australia’s suburbs.

(While you’re here, this is also an interesting read on the supposed origins of the phrase.)
Chasing Cosby
Another Podcast of the Year nominee, Chasing Cosby tells the dark secret life of “America’s Dad,” comedian and actor Bill Cosby.

Where the Bodies Are Buried
This one-of-a-kind true-crime podcast is hosted by renowned serial killer profiler Phil Chalmers, with producers Samantha Gutstadt and Adam Kaloustian.

Atmospheric and haunting, this tense podcast is one you’ll want to binge through in one or two sittings.
The Final Chapters of Richard Brown Winters
The Final Chapters of Richard Brown Winters from Gimlet is a one-part audio drama designed to be listened to in a single sitting and is recommended if you like your audio drama weird and wonderful. Richard Brown Winters is a bestselling author … and recluse. Nobody’s heard from him in almost a decade, and most of his readers have given up hope of ever finding out what happened to the protagonist of his novels. When one fan joins a ragtag group to travel to Winters’ cabin in the desert, what they find threatens to destroy the Wintersverse forever …
Imaginary Advice
A series of audio-fiction experiments, Imaginary Advice is one of the quirkiest podcasts you’ll listen to this year. Each episode is a stand-alone, so by listening to one you don’t need to commit to the entire show — although you’ll want to. From monologues to short stories and essays on storytelling, host Ross Sutherland presents a new piece of writing, created especially for the podcast, each month. We’d recommend starting with S.E.I.N.F.E.L.D, an episode about teaching an A.I. to do standup, or one of the episodes about prop artist Graham Owens, the “true” author of the famous manuscript used in Kubrick’s The Shining. The podcast is on a short break right now, but there are plenty of episodes to catch up on until it returns.
Internet Urban Legends
Hosted by beauty-gurus-turned-internet-sleuths Loey Lane and Eleanor Snitchery, Internet Urban Legends is a new Spotify-exclusive podcast, with just six episodes available so far. Loey grew up in a haunted house and is the resident evidence expert, presenting the facts and introducing each legend, while Snitchery, Eleanor’s digital alter ego, is the skeptic, asking questions to get to the bottom of what’s happening. New episodes drop weekly on Tuesdays, with each episode covering one big story, from the creepy tale of “The Watcher House” to the mystery of the “Blank Room Soup” video. From Creepypastas to spooky TikToks, there’s no internet urban legend too terrifying for these hosts, but be warned — this podcast may keep you up all night.
Unwell, a Midwestern Gothic Mystery
In the mood for a spooky, strange escape from real life? Unwell, a Midwestern Gothic Mystery is just the ticket. This critically acclaimed audio fiction podcast is on its third season. After her estranged mother is injured, free-spirited Lillian Harper moves back to Mt. Absalom, Ohio, to care for her — but she finds things in the town even strange than she remembers.
With over 45 episodes available to listen to, you can dive into the ghosts, conspiracies, and strange goings-on of Mt. Absalom for yourself. If you’re already a fan, season three is a chance to find out more about your favorite locations from earlier seasons, like the cavernous hole beneath the town’s observatory, or the bizarre 24-hour diner that only serves meat.
Spirits
Want to pour yourself a drink and listen to spooky stories about myths, legends, and hauntings? Then Spirits is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. Every week hosts Amanda and Julia mix a drink — from tequila to locally brewed imperial stout — and discuss a story, legend, or character from a wide range of places and cultures. Their Urban Legends episodes are particularly fun, focusing on listener-submitted myths and legends from various states.
Snap Judgment Presents: Spooked
Think you can handle real-life supernatural stories told firsthand? The Spooked podcast isn’t for the faint of heart, with true tales of hauntings and other spooky goings-on that will leave you reeling in disbelief, from stories of haunted medieval jails to deadly premonitions. With season 6 dropping on September 3, there’s no time like the present to dive into this podcast. If you’re feeling brave enough to listen, all we ask is that you please don’t ever, ever, turn out the lights. It’s just too damn scary.
Wind of Change
A chance remark by a CIA greybeard led to one huge question: Was the CIA behind the writing and success of Wind of Change by German rock band The Scorpions, and was it integral to the collapse of the USSR? It’s a bizarre question, but a compelling one, and the journey of self-discovery takes you into Soviet Russia, deep into the workings of the CIA, and even into one of the largest drug rings of the 1980s. It’s a short series, but a must-listen.
Lore
Lore is a collection of real-life stories so scary, you probably wish they were fake. Each episode of the bimonthly podcast — which became a full-blown TV series in late 2017, thanks to Amazon — tackles historical events that often venture into the supernatural. With the help of host Aaron Mahnke, each segment carries a campfire-esque vibe.
This American Life
No podcast collection would be complete without This American Life. Host Ira Glass delves into first-person stories and short fiction pieces from around the country. It will make you laugh just as often as it will make you cry. TAL holds the torch by which others are judged.
The Moth
A different breed of storytelling than This American Life and Radiolab comes from the Moth organization. Each storyteller stands under a bright spotlight, in a crowded room, sharing their true experiences with a live audience.
Here Be Monsters
This podcast is like a cross between This American Life and The Twilight Zone. The (mostly) true stories are alternately spooky, humorous, intense, and fascinating, and the experimental and eerie sound design is spellbindingly fun. The latest season launched in February — and there are over 130 episodes in total to listen to.
Welcome to Night Vale
This series purports to be the local radio announcements of the titular weird desert town. Welcome to Night Vale is a bit like Twin Peaks if it were a podcast — with menacing glow clouds and monstrous mayors.
Snap Judgment
This podcast is, as host and producer Glynn Washington puts it, “storytelling with a beat.” Snap Judgment is a profound, engaging, and humorous listen. It puts a new kind of spin on standard storytelling.
Death, Sex, and Money
Polite conversation often omits some of the most important topics of our day — and that’s where Death, Sex, and Money steps in. Celebrities and everyday people use the podcast as a vessel to discuss some of the hardest choices they’ve had to make, the biggest questions they’ve had to ask, and the things that have affected their lives the most. Anna Sale hosts.

The Lowe Post
While basketball media is split between those who favor in-depth analysis and those who enjoy drama and storytelling, ESPN’s Zach Lowe walks in both worlds, and that makes his sports podcast one of the most entertaining.

Thankfully, Simmons has lost none of his flair when interviewing athletes, celebrities, and sports experts.

Arts and culture
HiberNation
The new podcast by the creators of the Headspace app, HiberNation takes a deep dive into the history, economics, and psychology of sleep. This isn’t a podcast about sleep and how it relates to wellness — in fact, it’s more of a culture podcast, as acclaimed journalist Mallika Rao speaks to almost a dozen different people, each with their own story to tell about sleep. Episodes cover topics ranging from the discovery of REM to the very real experiences of sleep paralysis.
Were You Raised By Wolves?
Every week, Emmy Award-winning journalist Nick Leighton and comedian Leah Bonnema make the world a nicer, more polite place to be with Were You Raised By Wolves? Tackling issues of etiquette and social niceties, each episode asks questions like “Is it okay to be late to a surprise party?” or “Is it rude to add ice cubes to wine?” with a dose of humor, while offering tips and advice to help you smoothly navigate tricky social situations. Don’t miss the episode about vacuuming on Sundays in Germany or the one about wiping down gym equipment. This podcast will teach you things you didn’t even know you needed to know — and they recently celebrated their 100th episode.

Opinionated and Underrated
We’re going across the pond for this British Generation Z podcast, hosted by Charlotte Vosper and Elif Akkemik.

Episodes are around 40 minutes long — perfect for a lunchtime listen — and presented in a passionate, exploratory style by the hosts, as they navigate their way through various societal narratives and get a little bit angry at the world. There are 23 episodes so far, and this is definitely a must-listen if you’re looking to connect with how Gen Z-ers see the world and open your mind to exploring others’ mindsets and opinions.
Counterjam
Counterjam explores cultural identity through two things we all love: Food and music. Hosted by food culture expert Peter J. Kim, each episode focuses on one cultural community and involves a chat with chefs, musicians, and celebrities about the way we inherit and construct our cultural identities — and how we express this through the food we eat and the music we create. Each episode features interwoven tracks from independent artists. In episode one, chef Roy Choi talks about Korean-Americans’ talent for hacking instant Ramyun while stand-up comedian Margaret Cho tells us about her multiple fridges: One for kimchi, one for K-beauty products.
