Hello and welcome back to another edition of THE POSTCARD, Unregistered’s fortnightly roundup of recommendations.
Thoughts, tools, and treats
This week I'm highlighting a handful of podcasts that can enrich your daily routines, bridge waiting times, and give your eyes a rest—all without sacrificing mental stimulation.
discourse brunch with Jasmine Sun
Jasmine challenges the thinkbois with her straight-to-the-point tech-podcast. The best episodes give you the feeling of staying up all night debating in a college dorm with the brightest students.
Conversations with Tyler
Economist and polymath Tyler Cowen’s intense, topic-to-topic questioning style keeps guests and listeners intellectually agile.
The Discast with Andrew Sullivan
Independent media legend Andrew Sullivan keeps his promise of „unafraid conversations about anything.“ Start with the two episodes about Andrews’ early influences to better understand this exceptional man.
Deep Questions with Cal Newport
In his podcast about living and working deeply in a distracted world, computer science professor and bestselling author Cal Newport strikes a good balance between conceptual frameworks and hands-on advice.
Terroir & Adiletten
In the unlikely event that you understand German and love wine, this podcast by Austrian sommelier and bar owner Willi Schlögl and rapper Curly is a must.
