Lots of great suggestions. If you want one that will make you mad, Swindled is a great one about white collar crime. Podcaster is left leaning (outwardly so) and it's (sometimes) therapeutic to hear him talk about some of the topics.

My experience with basketball was terrible, should I say no thanks or give it a try?
Bone Valley, eight-episode, superb quality true crime podcast by Pulitzer prize winner Gilbert King.
Whenever I know that a podcast has a specific number of episodes I just wonder: what to do after finishing it? especially if I really get interested in it?... so what do you do in this case?
Ha, good question, it was not easy. I've just been picking over at other content in the true crime genre trying to chase that dragon - I tried a couple of other podcasts that were recommended (Beyond All Repair and Death On The Ice), but what really ended up grabbing me next was "Who TF Did I Marry," which is a woman's 7-hour recounting on TikTok of her experience being married to a pathological liar, and how it feels as it slowly dawns on her. She's an amazing storyteller, strongly recommended
For a Pulitzer prize winner to come up with "Bone Valley" as a title really makes you think 🤭
