I love the ones you mentioned and almost all from NPR. I recently discovered The Moth which is people telling stories of something that happened in their life. There was a great one recently about a mom who discovered a very inappropriate email sent to her daughter by a guy the daughter knew. It was kind of funny -- the mom's horror, then how to tell her daughter she had snooped in her email, then confronting the kid who sent it. It was told in a half-joking manner until the end when it was quite poignant. I recommend The Moth. The only thing I don't like about Fresh Air is how they have to promote all their sponsors before they get to the conversation. Here is a link that might be useful: The Moth

That was a great interview with Dale Martens and interesting info on those "other" gesneriads, esp. her explanation on how variegation came to be in streps - and the tip on leaf propagation of a variegated strep was something I had never thought about. That was such a valuable tip. The podcast is a little over half an hour - well worth your time!

I discovered Criminal during lockdown & agree it's so good I binged it - also sorry I now have to wait for new ones. I really enjoy Atlas Obscura's podcasts. They're not very long, but take you to marvelous places around the world and here at home. I second Serial, and another from members of the team at This American Life - S-Town, which is a long deep dive into sort of southern gothic true story. And of course, This American Life and Radiolab. Jad Abumrad of Radiolab did a really cool podcast series about Dolly Parton awhile back that is just excellent. I'm also enjoying Michael Lewis' Against The Rules very much. And The Shrink Next Door is a fascinating true story as well. It was made into a TV series with Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd.
