I have found this to be true anecdotally as well. I’ve had a lonely couple of years and regularly listening to a podcast does really seem to help me feel less lonely.

A friend told me to ask you which podcasts you listen to to feel less lonely.

Stuff You Should Know! It’s two very likeable, low-key dudes who do deep-dive research into random topics and can make literally anything interesting. They keep it upbeat, unbiased, and PG (which is just more comfortable for me when I’m running low on emotional reserves). No conflict or strong emotions, just comfortable banter, interesting facts, and a chuckle or two.

Not sure if you like DnD but Not Another DnD Podcast has honestly gotten me through a rough couple of years. The storytelling is incredible with a bunch of goofs and just all around fun. Give the first couple episodes a try. Even if you don't know anything about DnD, one of the players has never played before either so everything is simple and broken down to understand
