Some more I like that I haven't mentioned (and haven't seen elsewhere) using my own home made bullet points

Futility closet - a married couple raise funds to produce this. Each episode plucks and presents a single story from history in a very straightforward manor. They're usually brief but interesting historical glimpses you'd rarely have any reason to see. Then they take turns solving puzzles. Yeah it's a weird mixture but I enjoy the stories.

Script notes - John August (Big Fish) and Craig Mazin (upcoming Chernobyl show) talk about things interesting to script writers and the film and TV industry. I do love getting an insight into subjects I'm completely ignorant about. Apparently it's highly rated on itunes but I've never seen anyone mention it.

After a long break I've been re-watching Carnivàle and Ive been listening to a podcast based on the show released in 2012 CarnyCast - well after it was cancelled, but back in the good old days of podcasting, before it became infested with advertising money and a viable career path for those too shy for youtube.
