Sorry, it's not my main interest right now, so I am out-of-the-loop.

Last time I checked, Big Biology was kinda unique going beyond basic popsci, while still remaining interesting and engaging. I think biologists are not the most technically inclined, not really drawn to podcasting. And it's also not the hottest of topics right now, specific research PR and educational voices aren't funded well. There are some journal/university etc. associated everybody-has-a-podcast-now podcasts, but I found them to be rather boring and dry. Individual episodes of the Huberman/Lex Fridman type edgelord podcasts may also be occasionally interesting, but the signal to noise ratio is poor, with a heavy bias towards overconfident and narcissistic guests speaking with false authority, lots of explanatory speculation presented as facts, pronounced political confirmation bias.

Maybe take a well presented episode on Big Biology and see where else respective guests speak or publish?
