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?

Dungeon Master of None is a good podcast.
 

Besides SlyFlourish and Mastering Dungeons, I also really like The Vintage RPG Podcast for a broad variety of nostalgic takes on games. Shorter podcast but very good.

Between Two Cairns for OSR stuff - when it’s good it’s real good, and you’ll learn about a lot of great games but sometimes they can be a bit insufferable when they get deeeeeeeeeeply opinionated.
 


Bastionland Podcast is Chris McDowall's (Into the Odd, Mythic Bastionlands) podcast. It's not constant, and the format changes often. But he talks with designers, he talks about his games. They often explore things outside of TTRPG. I enjoy it.

Between Two Cairns is an OSR module review podcast by two strong presences in the OSR. I really enjoy their banter and the format they use. It's weekly and I've discovered a ton of good modules. They often have guests.

Tales of the Manticore. You said you didn't enjoy Actual Play podcasts that much. I'd recommend you to try this. It's a different format. It's one guy's solo play, under a thick layer of narrative. It's probably the only podcast of the genre that I've been able to stomach. Season 1 and Season 2 are fantastic. I have yet to dive into Season 3.

The Lost Bay Podcast focuses on OSR, NSR and adjacent games. It's a lot of interviews with designers, talking about games. I haven't listened to as many episodes as the other three, but it's growing on me.
