I'm finding it harder and harder to pay attention to architecture-related podcasts... even archinect's. Perhaps it's because I only listen to podcasts in transit on my way into the office as opposed to during the work day. That small window is best served with a healthy helping of Pearl Jam than that architecture stuff.
I do have 2 podcasts that I semi-regularly follow:
I've been looking for a pod about conspiracy theories that explains what the most recent ones are and their origins without the drink-the-koolaid tone, but haven't found one that fits the bill. I plan to try out NS's Reality Check. Any other recommendations are welcome.
Out of all the ones I "reviewed" in the blog years ago, I'm only listening to 99% Invisible today. Most of them have disappeared or just became too "meh" for the time I was spending listening to them (I'm looking at you Archispeak)
Bonus, you can pre-order Roman Mars and Kurt Kohlstedt's book coming in October, The 99% Invisible City.

I found the same with Archispeak. Some of the episodes were just too long for the topic. I did get some good advice from them early on about changing jobs!

Rich Roll, Malcolm Gladwell, Michael Lewis, Dax Shepard, occasional Joe Rogan, All depends on the guest.

The best recent Rogan podcast was with David Choe. He’s an interesting guy.

The dude / bro factor can be a bit much with Rogan but I am impressed by the range of guest and topics he can talk about with a reasonable level of interest and understanding.

I always thought people talking was annoying, it's a lot of effort and energy wasted that could be printed, but learning from my kids, no one really reads anymore, just guys like me - 30 seconds of text or 30 minutes of you talking....so
(thanks 'nectors, now that I noticed humans speaking, I'll check out all the podcasts, 42 years into living and just noticed people talking could be interesting).
on archinect podcasts, the glory days were edited or had a lot of input and/or participation by Amelia (just my opinion)

Probably on the most potent episodes Lex has dropped. On par with his recent one with Dr. Sheldon.

I listened to Nice White Parents over the weekend.
I wish I had him as my teacher. Makes the subject so easy to understand, and a pleasure to listen to his lectures.

"What's Left" hosted by Aimee Therese and Oliver Bateman is pretty good if you are interested in how the political realignment is playing out in certain parts of America these days.
What do architect's listen to? (not music thread)
check out curry stone podcast on spottily, it's about humanitarian architecture
My friend Emily does this one: https://www.mottramarch.com/the-podcast. I'm an occasional guest; in fact we're recording one this afternoon.
This one is not very active these days, but full of excellent info: https://www.greenbuildingadvisor.com/blog/green-architects-lounge. (They will be our guests tonight on our Zoom show, which is like a podcast: https://www.thebsandbeershow.com/)
I like this one, tailored to owners (or aspiring owners) of small architecture firms: https://gablmedia.com/show/entrearchitect-podcast-with-mark-r-lepage/. (I was once a guest--skip that one!)
This one's good: https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/. Check out the recent one with Eric Reinholdt.
One more: https://positiveenergy.pro/building-science-podcast.

I do have 2 podcasts that I semi-regularly follow:
The Reality Check - Canada's weekly podcast that explores a wide range of controversies and curiosities using science and critical thinking.
The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe
edit: I still semi-regularly follow archinect's podcast but it can take me 3 day's worth of transit to finish one episode so the backlog ATM is high
http://revisionisthistory.com/seasons
Sean Carrolls Mindscape.

Sounds awful

No architecture stuff. I listen because I enjoy a break and learning about/indulging in other things.
the dream (both seasons) - https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/stitcher/the-dream
Stay Tuned with Preet - https://cafe.com/stay-tuned-podcast/

Lex Fridman and Acid Horizon (but mainly Lex, mainly his guests)
and for you architects, my spirit animal (Joscha Bach), see intro (his dad was an architect in East Germany)
Ancient Sheds can suck it!

This is my favourite - some pretty amazing sets of episodes, like the 'Glass Paradise' ones. https://aboutbuildingsandcitie...
