Oh yes, I forgot to mention podcasts that are also radio series such as Radiolab, TED Radio Hour, How I Built This, etc. I'm a big fan of This American Life.My top ones are mostly the same. Ezra Klein and Planet Money, and NYTimes' The Daily is also pretty high up there as well. Vox's Today Explained also has some pretty good episodes.
Blowback is a really good history series--first three seasons are on the US-Iraq War, US Intervention in Cuba, and the Korean War. This post inspired me to check and there are two new seasons that I need to listen to.
This American Life is also a must-listen, although it feels weird to call it a podcast, since it was a radio series for so long before podcasts existed as a medium.
Looking forward to seeing what else people recommend.
