Pods that aren't recaps:
Beyond the Breakers (shipwrecks)
Garden Plots with Skeletor
You're Wrong About

I love You’re Wrong About, pre-Michael’s departure though. I find it less enjoyable after he left.

Agree!

If you like sports - ESPN 30 for 30 podcast is fantastic! They are so good at story telling.

I also enjoyed Against the Rules with Michael Lewis

Old SNL fan? Fly on the Wall

Literally with Rob Lowe

Holderness Family - I liked their Amazing Race Episodes

The Way I heard it with Mike Rowe

Joe Rogan has some excellent conversations that are long. Elon Musk, Neil Degrasse Tyson and Mr. Beast

Conan Needs a Friend

Total Ship Show with Malia White from Below Deck

BBC 13 Minutes to the Moon - we found this amazingly gripping and interesting. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w13xttx2
Season 1 is an in-depth story of the Apollo 11 mission
Season 2 is an in-depth story of the Apollo 13 mission

They are great at weaving in information about everything in order as it happened, with plenty of commentary to explain what's going on, do interviews with many of the people who were there at the time with their impressions and information.

Smartless with Will Arnett, Sean Hayes and Jason Batemen. They interview a different guest each week so you can pick and choose what interests you.

Another +1 here on You’re Wrong About, both that it’s great and also that it isn’t grabbing me the way it used to.

Good TV recap podcasts include Talking Sopranos, They Coined It (re Mad Men) and Again With This (on 90210 and Melrose Place.)

Bag Man is absolutely fascinating. DH and I binged this when we drove to Massachusetts to catch DD's college lacrosse game. We actually did a lap around campus so we could listen finish the last episode.

If you haven’t listened to S Town yet, it’s definitely worth it. Just go in cold. Heaven’s Gate is a good one if you find cults interesting. I really like Heavyweight—the premise is that you finally talk to the person about something that affected you when you were young. I’m not explaining it well.

Mortified often has me laughing. I also enjoy The Tip Off (investigative journalism) and Criminal.
