I really enjoyed the "Michael Hobbes Podcast Universe" this year. He's a reporter who is now making entertaining podcasts debunking claims in the media/zeitgeist. I appreciate that he takes a pragmatic approach -- to paraphrase something he said: "There's probably an impact on kids having so much screen time, but this data you're citing doesn't show what you're claiming."

There's a similar podcast where he's also made an appearance:

In this network, Know Your Enemy and 5-4 are also solid. The latter is on the snarkier side, which puts some people off.
