2021: This year’s best podcasts!

This posts contains links to Apple Podcasts and Spotify, which may or may not attempt to open the respective apps on your device if you click or tap them. You can find all listed podcast titles not just on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, but also on Stitcher, Google Play, Amazon Music or pretty much any other podcasting app or streaming service. (Personally I tend to use Overcast as my preferred podcasting app nowadays.)

The global COVID-19 pandemic saw an explosion of podcasts, but on a personal level… I don’t listen as much to podcasts as I used to. I guess I fell out of love with the medium somewhat. Overall, I did listen to more podcasts in 2021 than I did 2020, but still… not as much as before 2020.
