From the courses I’ve recently listened to on Arzamas, I recommend the following:
1. History of Orthodox Culture. https://arzamas.academy/courses/43
2. What is Antiquity?https://arzamas.academy/likbez/antiquity
What is Ancient Greece?
https://arzamas.academy/courses/36
3. How to Understand Japan.
https://arzamas.academy/courses/21
4. How Railroads Changed Russian Life. Co-produced with RZD. Interesting (haven’t finished listening yet, but the beginning is intriguing)
https://arzamas.academy/courses/49
5. How to Listen to Classical Music?
https://arzamas.academy/courses/25
(somewhere halfway interesting and useful)
6. The World of Bulgakov.
https://arzamas.academy/courses/39
7. The Russian Language from “goy esi” to “lol kek” – very interesting
https://arzamas.academy/likbez/ruslang
8. The Siege of Leningrad
https://arzamas.academy/courses/51/
Also, they have the “Inferiority Complex” podcast. There was recently interesting content about the swearing used by Pushkin) https://soundcloud.com/arzamas-academy
If someone has listened to anything else – please recommend.
I’ve also discovered Arkhe (http://arhe.msk.ru/) – but they do not have a mobile app and many lectures require video as slides are needed
