A suggestion I would have is treat the podcast a library to choose from and not a subscription.

For example:

* maybe you don’t love Marc Maron but you LOVE David Sedaris. Just listen to that interview.

* maybe you hate news but you’re curious about a specific current event. See if “The Daily” has an episode on that.

I’d recommend finding high quality podcasts and looking through their archive. There is no better podcast than hearing a high quality operation like “This American Life” tell a story all about one of your interests.

In that vein, I keep an eye on:

The daily

This American life

Today explained

Planet money

Marc Maron (he really pulls a lot out of people)

Those are super mainstream, but they’re popular for a reason.
