Fall of Civilizations https://fallofcivilizationspodcast.com/

Descriptions of what we know about the rise and fall of various past cultures, and what life was like for people living at the peak of those empires and during the collapse. I highly recommend the video versions available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR7yrLMHm11X6-M_usCj5H-gdstyWNLXQ

I’m fond of https://thehistoryofengland.co.uk/ as a podcast. I listened to a whole lot of it with a single earbud in while my kids were in that stage.

Joanna Lumley made a few nice ones (like "in the Land of the Northern Lights")

Or better fit in this community : the "rail away" series*. It's just special train rides across the world with short explanations. Very dull, yet pleasurable.

* It's dutch, but I'll bet there are english/international variations too

(the dullest EVER was a broadcast by a regional broadcaster in the early morning hours titled "gaan we links of gaan we rechts" {do we go left or do we go right?} which was just a camera in a car that drove around. No voice-over, No music. Just a camera in a car that drove around.)

All of The World At War is available on Archive.org. Well worth it.
