RUNDOWN A list of things to do while mandated not to do anything Consider the following podcasts….

The Why: Philly Explained explores a local story and then dives into the architecture of how it all began. Hosts Annette John-Hall, who brought us all insight into the man that was Bill Cosby in Cosby: Unraveled is joined by co-host Shai Ben-Yaacov for deep discussion and, admittedly, some really insightful journalism. | podcasts.apple.com/us/ podcast/the-why-philly-explained/ id1439189807

History Hyenas Imagine learning about the weirdest shit out there by two guys who ply their trade as comedians recalling historic moments in both American and world history. Chris DiStefano and Yannis Pappas do the damn thing in this hour-long look at life as we’ve come to know it. One of their most recent, which focuses on the history of the stock market is certainly a must-listen. | historyhyenas. com/

Hi-Res Daily Hosted by Ryan Starr, this Philly-based podcast focuses on the creative minds that have helped to transform a variety of spaces. Since 2015, Starr has been hosting a bi-weekly podcast. But thanks to COVID-19, he’s been in production of a daily episode and they’re admittedly pretty enlightening especially when it comes to how attempting to cope as a creative right now isn’t exactly the easiest. | HiResPod.com

This Podcast Will Kill You Picture this: a pair of grad students studying diseases and their humble beginnings providing insight on how shit like the coronavirus even happens. It goes way beyond a fish market in China, trust me. Plus, these two have no issues talking about pus, vomit, feces or whatever else can kickstart a worldwide pandemic. Pretty appropriate given today’s times, we’d say. | thispodcastwillkillyou.com/

The Dollop Two comedians looking at the history of comedy. It’s a good laugh but it’s also great insight into the history of some of the weirdest or intricate stories out there. Hosted by comics Dave Anthony and Gareth Reynolds, we think you’ll be left enlightened and amused after these collections of episodes, now running six years strong. | allthingscomedy.com/podcast/the-dollop
