PT Inquest
You won’t find a better evidence-based PT podcast than this. The hosts, Erik Meira and JW Matheson, analyzes 1 journal article per episode. It’s a great way to stay current with the literature.

Tim Ferriss. (Non-PT Podcast)
Tim Ferriss is a well-known author of The 4-Hour Workweek, The 4-Hour Chef, and The 4-Hour Body. Jamie Foxx equates him to “white Oprah” of the podcast world. He interviews world-class professionals, businessmen, and thinkers including a physical therapist like Kelly Starrett and strength coaches like Pavel Tsatsouline. This is a great podcast for self-improvement in professional and personal aspects of life. It will redefine your concept of productivity and living a full life. Fun fact: his mom is actually a physical therapist.
