TTRPG Podcasts

Happy Black Friday for all who celebrate. I am looking for some podcast recommendations. I don't like to listen or watch actual plays, but I'm interested in pods that talk about games and gaming. Also, while I do like Youtube, I generally listen to audio pods on my phone at the gym, or in my car. Here are the ones I currently like:

SlyFlourish
Mastering Dungeons
Reading D&D Aloud
ENWorld
Runehammer (he stopped updating these, but they are still good)
Eldritch Lorecast (I'm if'y on this one because I feeling like I'm being yelled at in an Australian accent).

Any others?

Ginny D on youtube I enjoy.
Pointy Hat (also youtube) I enjoy a bit less, but still watch.

Both aim more at less experienced D&Ders, and both have combined less experience than I... Ginny does excellent cosplay stuff, too... and is just starting into LARPing (looks like Amtgard). Her enthusiasm is catchy, she's not 100% D&D (about 90%; the rest going a bit afield). She also admits to her own weaknesses as a player and GM. Plus, she's very easy to look at and listen to.

Pointy Hat's a bit more technical, much more D&D focused (98% or more), and does some nice depth.

Zigmenthotep on youtube zigmenthotep reviews old and obscure RPGs. He's usually pretty accurate about mechanics.

I am an occasional guest of the Game Master's Book Club podcast, wherein we read a book and then discuss it as related to TTRPGs. We recently did an episode with Scott Lynch about Lies of Locke Lamora.

Ep033- Scott Lynch - The Lies of Locke Lamora — K-Square Productions

The Game-Masters Book Club brings talented game designers together to discuss works of fiction and how they can bring new ideas to your own role-playing game.
