Everybody has that one thing they were obsessed with when they were young. Juvenalia is an Irish podcast where interesting people talk to Alan Maguire, Andrea Cleary, and Sarah Maria Griffin about the bit of pop culture that they were obsessed with when they were young, how they felt about it then and how they feel about it now. It's nice, you'll like it.
