                  I quite liked these ones:

https://wiki.nikitavoloboev.xyz/podcasts#favorite-episodesI wish podcast clients had social features builtin . As much as I dislike Spotify moving into the podcast space and challenging the current free landscape of RSS feeds. Not one client has the simple ability to add an episode you liked to a playlist to share.

I have to share the link to myself on Telegram and than bookmark it myself ..

Seems like Spotify (as a podcast client) does what you want it to. Why you then dislike it?

****************************

                         

                  Yeah, I don’t use Spotify (I use a competitor that I think is a lot better) and am always annoyed when people use it to link songs.

Services like YouTube let everyone view everything, even if you don’t log in. That might be your best bet for creating playlists of any kind of audio or video, though of course there are a lot of copyright infringement concerns if you’re uploading podcast episodes yourself.

                  Peter Thiel on Eric Weinstein’s The Portal.

John Carmack on Joe Rogan – not really impactful but still a really good episode.

            

                  Eric Weinstein’s The Portal really is amazing. A top 5 highlight of as far as I’m concerned.

                  His interview with Vitalik Buterin is probably one of the most insightful podcast episodes I ‘ve ever heard. I kind of wish a lot more of my own conversations were like that one.
                         

                   1 for this. They had a great discussion about the effects of automation and AI will have on the workforce. It’s long but worth a listen, even if you’re skeptical about UBI as a solution.**************************************************

                  This might be pretty unconventional, but I have two favorite. One is called ‘The Exploring Series’, and is essentially a podcast researching and summarizing mythical stories, DnD lore, SCP lore, Lovecraft lore, etc. The other is Sleep With Me, which is just incessant rambling about a story or an episode of a TV show.I don’t listen to the for the content . I listen to them because they help me sleep better in the winter, when I can’t open the window to hear the ambient noise outside without making myself ill. I can’t sleep in pure silence, it’s too quiet. Both podcast authors have very warm and soothing voices and it’s so easy to fall asleep with a nice bed time story like that.

We’re still children inside, after all.

****************************************

                  Can’t think of a specific episode, but all the controversial ideas discussed in the Red Scare podcast have really twisted around my brain (and put words to things I thought only I were alone in observing) recently.

                  Matthew Walker, PhD on sleep – part I and II on The Peter Attia Drive podcast. It was really a wake up call for sleep hygeine, and prompted me to get a sleep study, which has changed my life after getting a sleep device .**************************************
