My top 6 according to how podcast addict sorts them:
8-4 Play
The Adventure Zone
Brad and Will Made a Tech Pod
538 Politics
Hardcore Gaming 101
Rude Tales of Magic
I'd probably also give shout outs to Self Hosted, Common Descent, Spacepod, the Nature podcast, and Software Engineering Radio.
Mean Boys, F**kFace, Smart enough to know better, Midflight brawl, No such thing as fish
Nextlander, it's some of the OG Giant Bomb guys, I love their video games and industry coverage, and they're such warm comforting guys :-)
"If you're listening" is anazing, but I have always loved "The Science Show" the best. Both on ABC.
For non-Aussie podcasts, 99% invisible I guess.
Iβm working my way through the old episodes of Short History Of and The Soundtrack Show. Both are well written and narrated and worth listening to.
The Soundtrack Show is so great.
Tech:
German
3x netzpolitik aber kein logbuch!? :D
I enjoy Adam Ragusea's podcast. It is a bit all over the place sometimes, but it's mostly about cooking related stuff?
French speakers should check out Mike Ward sous Γ©coute. It's just QuΓ©bec comedians* getting drunk in front of a crowd. I really enjoy it.
Darknet diaries have been named a few times already, but I will also list it, it's just that good haha.
* Google tells me humorist is a word in english but im not sure? It's mostly people doing comedy, not necessarily movies etc.
A locally made one here in Australia - How Other Dads Dad, by Hamish Blake.
The Weekly Planet. Two funny and liberal Aussie guys talk about comics, movies, and TV shows. Mostly the former two. They have a great YouTube channel too.
Usually those two:
WANshow from the LinusTechTips team
Darknet Diaries by Jack Rhysider
The Delta Flyers is a great Star Trek podcast about Star Trek: Voyager and more now that they have finished their re-watch of the series.
Mostly industry / work related stuff honestly.
The Kubernetes Podcast from Google
DevOps Paradox
DevOps and Docker Talk
I forgot to mention The Exploring Series in my answer! Glad you mentioned it!
A bit more teckie:
Languages learning:
Tooth and Claw! I haven't seen that mentioned. Awesome podcast about animal attacks and animal facts
Dear Hank and John (funny John and Hank Green)
Hardcore History with Dan Carlin
The Debaters (Canadian comedy show where two comedians debate whether something (ex: malls, big weddings, etc) is good/bad and get judged by live audience)
The Unmade Podcast (https://unmade.fm/) is probably my GOAT. Brady Haran (from Numberphile, Computerphile, etc.) and his Childhood friend, Tim Hein, come up with wacky ideas for podcasts that they won't actually make. Definitely the funniest podcast I've ever heard.
Hello Internet, also from Brady, with CGP Grey, is also amazing. Though sadly on hiatus.
I dropped the ball a bit on listening to podcasts therefor right now it'd be "This American Life" but normally I also enjoy the Flophouse.
