For anyone with an interest in psychology

Covers wide range of topics within the realm of psychology, everything from mainstream to obscure. I've been following Scott for a while on Spotify, and by now I feel that weird effect where he seems like an old friend, haha! Scott seems to me like an intelligent and compassionate person, and I listen to his podcast when I need a pick-me-up in this bizarre world. The psychological perspective of the podcast is largely humanistic, in the vein of Maslow and Carl Rogers.
Scott is curious, empathetic, and probing as an interviewer/host. Also recommended for anyone with a "divergent" mind of any sort... Scott had to contend with the low expectations and barriers set upon him due to his childhood learning disability. As such, he's a big advocate for (and model of) the potential of neurodivergent minds.
