More from the comments

I love ‘In Our Time’ - it strikes a really good balance between being academic and accessible.

I can strongly recommend the recent In Our Time podcast (subscribe, it's a hidden gem!!) episode over this very subject

"In Our Time" is the first podcast I listened to, way back in 2004, and I still listen to every episode.
