This Paranormal Life is a comedy podcast about 2 guys who investigate the paranormal and come down on an answer as to whether they believe the story happened or not. They go into deep detail about the subjects they are talking about in a hilarious but informative way.
The Adventure Zone is a tabletop roleplaying podcast about the McElroy family trying to play roleplaying games and creating amazing stories all in a hilarious way.
Judge John Hodgman. It’s about people with silly disputes, and John and his bailiff Jesse Thorn way in on them. What’s great is even though the disputes are silly, they both come at the cases with such thoughtfulness and empathy, listening to the show will make you a better and kinder person. Also sometimes Jean Grae guests bailiff’s and she is amazing too.
Dead Rabbit Radio if you like the paranormal or conspiracy theories without any of the shitty right-wing connotations that come with that community. Jason Carpenter is one of the best podcasters I’ve listened to and deserved 10x the views he gets.

Audio Dramas/Story Podcasts
The Punumbra Podcast: I listen to the Juno Steel series, it’s about a private detective on Mars. Great story and characters, a bit more humorous but will also destroy you emotionally in the best way. Also very queer!
The Bright Sessions: People with super powers go to therapy. I really loved the world they created and how they relate the super powers and mental health.
