There’s “Well there’s your problem”. In each episode, the hosts break down an engineering disaster. The episodes are one to several hours long each, and they are thorough, entertaining, and you learn a ton.

There’s also a video version that contains slides with pictures and graphs.

I would suggest as a starter episode 139, The impossible railroad, which I thought was a fun one. Or 146 on the Mount Everest, that was eye-opening. Those are the recent ones that stand out to me.

I don’t know if it has already been said, but “Darknet diaries” is a podcast i love to listen to, it’s basically a history and breakdown of different hacks that happend all around the world, there are also some interviews with pentesters who tell some amazing story’s, so if you’re into computers thats something I’d recommend listening to

I like to listed to Darknet Diaries if I am not listenting to WANshow.

The Delta Flyers is a podcast by Garrett Wang and Robert Duncan McNeill, who played Harry Kim and Tom Paris on Star Trek Voyager, they rewatch the show and interview other crew members, they have completed Voyager, and have started rewatching Deep Space 9, together with Terry Farrell and Armin Shimerman, who played Jadzia and Quark on that show.

Very interesting.

Damn Interesting is a site with long interesting articles about different subjects, they have a podcast under the same name, where they read the articles, it is very well done, but unpdated slowly, but there is quite a few episodes available.

This Podcast Will Kill You - this podcast is only disturbing if you find medical issues disturbing. Each episode discusses a disease, medical issue or some kind of medical history. I think it’s really interesting.

Hidden Brain - goes into a bunch of different topics about how we see and interpret the world. Very well done.

You’re Wrong About - talks about popular misconceptions and such.

Science VS - Talks about science stuff in a fun and entertaining way.

People already mentioned Behind the Bastards and I really like that one but it can be hit or miss. Don’t start with the newest episode, instead look for one that sounds like an interesting tooic to you and start there. When it’s good it’s very good.

History of the World in Spy Objects - ok I actually just found this one and haven’t had a chance to listen to an episode yet but it looks good and sounds like it might be interesting to you.

Lore - it’s very well done about dark historical takes

Mike Duncan’s History of Rome?

Darknet Diaries is always fascinating: it’s all about cybercrime. Sometimes the episodes are breakdowns of particular hacker groups or specific notable hacks; other times, they’re interviews with people in the industry: both cybersecurity professionals and criminals.

Sawbones “A marital tour of Misguided Medicine” from Justin & Sydney McElroy is a great podcast. each episode dives into the history behind some medical quackery. Funny & Informative, I always learn something and have a good time.
