Podcast recommendations please

[highheelsandbobblehats]

I commute an hour each way 4 days a week. Jamie and Amanda on Heart Breakfast are doing my head in. I'm struggling to find podcasts that I want to stick with though. I LOVED My Dad Wrote A Porno and listen to the new ones once a week when they go up, but other than that, I'm lost.
I've listented to RuPaul and Michelle Visage as I'm a big Drag Race fan, but honestly, not a fan of the podcast. Also tried JVN's Getting Curious and couldn't get on with it.

I'd like to learn French if anyone has a language recommendation.

What have you enjoyed?

I really like The Guilty Feminist. Funny and interesting.

And for clever stuff, Infinite Monkey Cage.

No such thing as a Fish, from the QI elves.

Oh my. That is a massive list @ChiefClerkDrumknott So many on real life murders too. It's like you've seen the fascination in my brain with them. Thank you. I have subscribed to lots on your list and haven't finished yet.

@WhoWants2Know Thank you! Subscribed.
@cardibach Thank you too! Subscribed to both.

Making Sense series

The Infinite Monkey Cage
The Curious Cases of Rutherford and Fry
Kermode and Mayo’s Film Review

@highheelsandbobblehats I may be a bit of a podcastoholic

Fortunately (with Fi and Jane) - Jane Garvey and Fi Glover mostly talk nonsense, about being middle aged and menopausal, but also interview some really interesting radio people.

Can I ask, how do you listen to podcasts on your phone, is it an app or through Spotify?

Coffee break French is slow to get going but useful content to learn French, duolingo do a podcast too but you need the basics for it to make sense

I have an iPhone and listen to them on the app

No such thing as a fish and the Elis James & John Robbins show.

@Whattodowithaminute Funnily enough I've already subscribed to coffee break French, but I haven't started it yet. Good to know that despite the slow start, it's got useful content.

@Redpriestandmozart I use Google Podcasts as I've got an Android phone. I actually have a Pixel 2, so I know it's compatible. I assume most other Android phones would be too.

I then Bluetooth it to my car, and listen that way. Just need to remember to download them at home so as not to tank my data.

I like 'loose lips' with Luisa Zissman and Anna Williamson.

If you like a spooky story try 'Ghosts in the burbs'...the Lillith episodes are good.

Shagged, Married, Annoyed is very funny.
It’s Chris & Rosie Ramsay (never heard of them before I started listening, though he’s on Strictly now) talking about married life, and their gripes with each other. Always makes me chuckle.
