    I think my latest favourite is Home Cooking, with Samin Nosrat and Hrishikesh Hirway. Also, for anyone who’s reading, can we appreciate LRB Conversations for the great book podcasts they do?

    firstly, gonna check out both home cooking and LRB conversations. i consume a lot of podcasts. i'm just gonna mention a couple on top of my mind. 1) "the lonely palette" (http://www.thelonelypalette.com/). tamar avishai does a great job in making art history more understandable, and digestible to public (much like making scientific research more accessible and consumable). 2) "dissect" (https://dissectpodcast.com/) - does a long form analysis of contemporary conceptual albums. rap as a form of music is nothing poetry but beats. it strikes at a neuronal level, and evolutionarily we just don't understand why it (music) has to make us happy. in this podcast, cole cuchna unveils the essence behind this poetry, especially the albums by kendrick lamar and beyonce. absolutely love it! i've been digging for poetry podcasts lately. do you have any recommendations? @stuti

    @somnathsandeep thanks for these! Will check them out. And no, poetry is always something I love reading myself or having someone close to me read and discuss. It adds personal layers that podcasts can’t mirror.
