The Best Podcasts of 2024 (So Far)
2024 is a milestone year for the podcast world. It marks a decade since the Serial phenomenon, which sparked many of the frothy, speculative dynamics that forged the podcast business we know today — a business, of course, that’s currently undergoing a kind of rebuilding phase as the medium matures. The cycle of new releases has been off to a relatively quiet start, but it’s not without great pleasures: Here, you’ll find a few experts of the form with some tricks up their sleeves, excellent entries into well-established genres, and even a glorious rerelease. And this is just the start. Several intriguing projects are on the horizon … including a new season of Serial itself.
