Avoid anything with sudden stings, ad breaks at full volume, or an argument in it. Steady voices and slow pacing matter more here than the subject.
Why episodes, not shows
Every other list answers this question with podcasts to subscribe to — a back catalogue you now have to search yourself. Skepmatches on what each episode actually covers, so the single best hour for this can come from a show you'd never follow, sitting next to one you already know.
