# The 3 Podcasts I Was Absolutely Hooked On in 2025

After 10,000+ minutes of listening, these three podcasts dominated my 2025
**1. [Teen Taal](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AT3Py4L5a4&list=PLW8nwheTMPtHTXNBM9ajmkZgCz8xYogE2&index=3&pp=iAQB0gcJCU8KAYcqIYzv):** The ultimate Hindi comedy podcast. Hosted by Tau, Sardar, and Khan Cha, it’s pure "therapeutic bullshit."  Imagine the funniest, most nonsensical conversation with your friends.

I was skeptical at first, but one episode in late 2024 made me a devotee. I didn’t miss a single one. It was my ultimate driving podcast for most of the year and is, hands down, the best Hindi podcast I’ve ever heard.

**2. [Acquired](https://www.youtube.com/@AcquiredFM):** A business storytelling masterpiece. Hosts Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal deliver incredibly researched deep-dives into companies. The way they research and tell the stories of iconic companies is next-level. My daily commute soundtrack since September.

**3. [Future IQ](https://www.youtube.com/@TheFutureIQ):** Hosted by Navin and Shrikant. I finally started listening seriously in December, and it immediately became my essential morning podcast for sharp, forward-thinking insights.

**My New Rhythm:** Morning chai with *Future IQ*, commutes with *Acquired*, Saturdays with *Teen Taal*. This powerful trio even dethroned [*The Tim Ferriss Show* ](https://www.youtube.com/timferriss)as my all-time favorites.

Do you have any recommendations for me in 2026?
