I listen in chronological order of release for most -- some shows I'm still in 2019, but for context it matters, if not a bit painful.

Gave up on:
Rogan -- liked it early on, now too much BS, no longer credible

By the way, if you're still a student, you may find useful these test answers about age graded influences, at least it was very useful for myself. Very nice and interesting to read!

Enjoy -- not everything is everyone's cup of tea. I left off a few philosophy ones:

The One You Feed
Tara Brach
Cup of Tao

I find if I give a show a solid five listens, I'll figure out if it's worth continuing in my feed or not. I learn something from every show, even the ones I end up not liking. And sometimes my preconceptions get challenged in a good way.

I burned out on:
Planet Money (good for historical context, but too 'current events' so if one doesn't want to go back in time to listen to what-ifs scenarios, it's kind of like watching someone else's vacation picture show).
Tech Stuff (still good, but when he lost his co-hosts, it became long and a bit labored)
All of them beat the heck out of talk-radio babble for travel, or even listening to my 1000 favorite songs on random, 'though if I don't want to think, I prefer the music :)

I've made it to the end of 2019. Just three years to catch up on -- I wonder what happens? BTW, I tend to gain 1 weeks' worth of listens any given day or two, as the podcasts play for a few hours or so while I work, do yard work, or drive. The philosophy ones can be good for meditation (Brach in particular).

I only recently stumbled upon this forum. It's a great idea to exchange our favorite pieces and create a playlist. I recently discovered a beautiful piano piece called "River Flows in You" by Yiruma. It's such a soothing tune, perfect for relaxing or studying. I found it on Spotify, and I've been listening to it on repeat ever since.

are you a bot?
 
My current favorite has to be The Huberman Lab Podcast. Very scientific and data driven so I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea.

When I finished that podcast for the week I'll dabble into Stuff You Should Know and Odd Lots.
