Not sure if we still have any Phlegms around, but the Leopold II podcast is very good.
Now if I can only find the time for 90 minute podcast episodes.

A new series by Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook has been getting rave reviews. Good idea to put an ancient and a modern historian together

Enjoying the new Bill Gates podcast.

Started listening to Philosophize this. Only 6 episodes in, but it already feels very dense in terms of content. I'm reading A New History of Western Philosophy, and I'm feeling a strong urge to take a head dive into Plato's and Aristotle's workse. :unsure:

Oh nice. I'm finally nearing the end of series 1.

I'm still on Philosophize This. I'm 50 episodes in out of 150. He's spending 8 episodes on Immanuel Kant (and yet only scratches the surface). The podcast gives me some ideas for areas of self study, though, so that's good. :)

Celedhring, Larch, you got any Spanish language recommendations (not futbol related)?  Trying to increase my share of Spanish podcast content.

Any particular topic? There are a few historical ones around, but personally I'm not a huge fan as they tend to be either quite disorganized or highly jingoistic.

Give this one a shot, then: https://memoriasdeuntambor.com/

It's about episodes of the history of Spain, it veers towards jingoistic at times, but I remember it had decent production values and the guy speaks in a clear way.

Just saw they have an episode about the (according to them, unacknowledged) Spanish participation in the American War of Independence named "USA. A debt with Spain".  :lol:

We already paid Spain back by taking Florida off their hands.

In retrospect, I guess me should be thankful.  :lol:
