Factsheet
I’m searching for a podcast that teaches you about things that you should know- history, basic “common” knowledge, fun facts, the future, language learning, biology, geography, news on society- think; “If school subjects were made into a podcast”
If that’s too specific I’m looking for a podcast that is really useful, where you can learn about multiple topics that can be useful in your day to day. I need something I can listen to when I’m doing other stuff so not too complicated, but hard enough where I’m still learning something new and interesting.
I’m not too interested in in-depth technology and sports fyi

I’m looking for a podcast that talks about topics that most people should know. Sometimes I feel like I don’t know as much as most people, and I want a podcast that will teach me relevant information that might seem basic and standard to some. Is there anything like that? Sort of like the ‘Stuff You Should Know’ podcast but for more common and well known information.
My intention with this post is to find interesting podcasts, through which I can attain knowledge that I can mention on a day to day basis. Stuff that I can pull out when talking to friends, because sometimes I really lack topics to talk about. :( I know this sounds like I want to impress people, and that's partly the reason for me asking, but I crave the knowledge itself aswell
They don't have to fit this frame, but if someone wants to recommend me something more adjusted to me and my interests: I am a rather left leaning person, who enjoys philosophy (this is a topic that I know a bit about) or social topics, but I also don't even really know much about politics or economic topics (these are also topics which make me insecure, because I lack knowledge). I also love literature and psychology. Anything intra/interpersonal.
But of course, I am also interested in everything else, that explains the world to me. I kind of lost touch to topics that are technilogy related, maybe there are some topics to get back into the topic. I like to think about things through a philosophical/anthropological lense though, it's interesting how humans developed to use tools or electricity to me for example.
Other topics that I find interesting: Sexuality, Trauma, Social Injustices (poor/rich), Feelings/Emotions, Psychedelics
I hope some of you will be able to work with this and recommend me some knowledge filled podcasts!
