Possibly the best podcast about a hobby/niche subject.
All special interest podcasts should aspire to cover their subjects in a way that Perpetual Chess covers chess and chess related subjects. This podcast has nearly everything one could ask for in a podcast about chess. Guests include luminaries such as former world champions, famous grandmasters, coaches, writers, YouTube/Twitch superstars, rising talents, as well as regular adults trying to improve their game. Subjects include major tournaments, book reviews, lives of famous chess personalities, chess history, and tips on how to improve at any level. The host, guest, content, and pacing are great. If you have even a passing interest in chess or want to improve your game, I strongly recommend you check out this podcast.

If you are interested in chess, current chess culture, chess improvement or chess books, this is the podcast for you. The host Ben Johnson selects a good variety of guests and interviews them in a pleasant manner. There is some bias to the US chess scene, but not overly so.
