Just wanna make sure you have these in your feed: Revolutions Podcast, History of Rome podcast (finished, but with 5 years of content), Dan Carlin's Hardcore History.

Idk, the "get together and discuss" podcasts vary widely in quality. I find that the way the hosts talk really determines whether I like it. I really enjoy My Brother My Brother and Me (A comedy podcast around answering YahooAnswers questions), and listening to Boars, Gore and Swords helps me solidify and digest what I watched in Game of Thrones.

But some of the discussions podcasts are just babbly. "One bad mother", "Throwing shade". There's very little content.

Even RadioLab does me wrong sometimes, but that's probably just because I have a basic science education and Robert Krulwich is an idiot. Radiolab suffers from the balance fallacy, argument to moderation, and false dilemma.
