I love stuff like this. Thanks to the OP for suggesting this podcast, i'll be adding it to pocket casts.
As for history podcast suggestions, there are many decent podcasts for specifics historical eras or events. Here's a few of my favourites:
https://thehistoryofbyzantium.com/ https://thehistoryofbyzantium.com/
https://thehistoryofrome.typepad.com/revolutions_podcast/ https://thehistoryofrome.typepad.com/revolutions_podcast/
and old one but still an excellent:

I have more on my phone, but they're specific to UK history (where i live).
I've not listened to first two in a while as I'm listen to a lot of history books via audible. But I've listened to the first 100 episodes of the Byzantium podcast and the Russian Revolution episodes in the Revolutions Podcast - both are really well researched and produced.
If any one loves listening to things about the rise/decline of civs I can recommend the audio book version of Oswald Spenglers Decline of the West:
https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/The-Decline-of-the-West-Audiobook/B08V9GDR3T?qid=1645341323&sr=1-1&ref=a_search_c3_lProduct_1_1&pf_rd_p=c6e316b8-14da-418d-8f91-b3cad83c5183&pf_rd_r=XVATRMCH64J8J6FDMQX4 https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/The-Decline-of-the-West-Audiobo...
I plan to read the book version at some point but it's a bit of a tomb. So thought I'd approach it via the audio book first to get a better idea of the main concepts before reading it.
And i'm currently reading Arnold J. Toynbee - A Study of History, which is a fascinating look at the rise and fall of civs. It adds a different point of view to Spenglers theory and work.
