ABJE93Great daily podcastVery informative episodes.

Minkette6Bite-sized but nutritiousFor a podcast whose episodes average about 7 minutes in length, this show manages to cover a remarkable variety of subjects, many of them weighty and genuinely important, and crams in incredible depth. (Maybe it’s the inverse of the effect I’ve complained about regarding other podcasts; instead of longer episodes with more filler, these short episodes don’t need to be padded to kill time.) Probably the most detailed and insightful explainer show I’ve come across so far—think of the episodes as rich little info-snacks. Perfect for those moments when I need to know the latest geopolitical scoop but lack time.
