I like Hidden Brain too. It’s an NPR podcast, about an hour long, and goes deep into issues of how the human brain affects our behavior.

I also love The Daily (NYTimes). It’s usually less than 1/2 an hour and manages to give in depth coverage of one current issue.

At the end of the year, they replayed their most popular episodes and featured updates about the people concerned.

The episode from 12/27/17 was pretty amazing. About a young man who was raised to be a white supremacist but then he went to college. They don’t mention the college by name but it was the New College of Florida.

The episode from 12/28/17 was also amazing. Not often that podcasts make me cry, but this one sure did.
