FHM South Africa|April 2023
Over the last few years, the podcast genre has exploded with every Tom, Dick and Jane having their own podcast. So as amazing as the podcast formula is, sifting through the millions upon millions of podcasts out there can be a pain. That's why we decided to list some of the best podcasts you can listen to right now.
THE BEST PODCASTS FOR 2023
 The Joe Rogan Experience

Arguably still the biggest podcast in the world right now after all these years, former TV host and UFC commentator Joe Rogan has cemented his place as the king of podcasts. Originally started in 2009, the podcast has grown to over 190 million downloads a month and has seen music streaming service Spotify sign an exclusivity deal with Rogan. The podcast has been described as “an important node of the intellectual dark web” and has featured a diverse ideological mixture of political guests including Democratic presidential candidates and conservative figures. The show itself has featured a plethora of guests ranging from Kanye West, Elon Musk to Oliver Stone. Although the podcast often comes under fire, claiming that Rogan sets the stage for various undesirable opinions without fact-checking, the show itself is still a fascinating listen. Just don’t take everything Rogan says as gospel.

Batman Unburied

A serial killer known as The Harvester terrorizes Gotham City, but Batman is not coming to the rescue. In fact, Bruce Wayne has no memory of being the Caped Crusader at all. Instead, Bruce is a forensic pathologist, performing the autopsy on the latest victim when he’s attacked by the killer himself. As Bruce’s obsession with the Harvester consumes him, Dr. Thomas Wayne, head of Gotham City Hospital, orders his son to take medical leave and seek treatment from an unusual psychologist, Dr. Hunter. With Batman missing in action, Detective Barbara Gordon is left with no other choice but to seek help from Gotham’s second smartest detective: The Riddler. Batman Unburied is created by David S. Goyer and stars Winston Duke, Hasan Minhaj, and Gina Rodriguez. Batman Unburied was produced by Phantom Four & Wolf at the Door in association with Blue Ribbon Content and DC for Spotify.
