Intro

I still love Podcasts. I find them still entertaining, educational, thought-provoking, and easy to consume, regardless of time and place.

I composed an exhaustive list of 27 different Podcasts which I liked a lot on September 2016. Now it is good time to revisit that list, and see how my favourites’ list has evolved. Each podcast is shortly described in their own words and categorized by me [since we all like order, right]. Here we go then, again:

Educational

You Are Not So Smart

The central theme of You Are Not So Smart is that you are unaware of how unaware you are. There is an old-and-still-growing body of research across several disciplines with findings that suggest you have little idea why you act or think the way you do.

That’s it, the list of my favourite podcasts updated for May of 2017. The list ended up including 25 different podcasts. As before, it does not contain all the podcasts I listen to, only the ones I enjoy the most.

And finally, my Podcast player of choice still is the brilliant Overcast.
