37 Best AI Podcasts to Listen To in 2026
Every show below was checked against its own feed: how many episodes it has published, how often it actually lands, when it last did, and how much of it is genuinely about AI. Measured across 5,009 episodes, not assembled from other people's lists.
How this list was built
We track 49 AI podcast feeds. 37 made this page. Two rules decide it, applied without exception:
- At least 10 collected episodes — below that, any figure for cadence or AI focus is noise.
- Something published in the last 60 days. Abandoned shows are the defining flaw of every list like this one. A dead podcast feed still resolves and still looks perfectly healthy in a player.
A further 2 entries were merged — several shows publish under two feed URLs, and listing both would pad the count.
All 37, ranked by how much is really AI
Ranked by the share of each show's recent episode titles that name an AI topic — measured across 3,878 episode titles, with the count shown on every row so you can check it. It is not a quality ranking. A well-made show with a wide remit sits below a narrower one, which is the point: this answers "how much of this will be about AI?", not "is it any good?".
Measured from titles, so it undercounts a show that covers AI in an episode without saying so in the title. It is a floor, not a ceiling — and it is measured rather than asserted, which is more than a hand-written list can offer.

The 7 that publish most often
Most podcasts are weekly. These land at least twice a week, measured from our own crawl rather than from what the show notes claim: Everyday AI Podcast – An AI and ChatGPT Podcast (5/wk), The AI Daily Brief: Artificial Intelligence News and Analysis (6.4/wk), A Beginner's Guide to AI (2.4/wk), The Cognitive Revolution (3/wk), Limitless: An AI Podcast (3.3/wk), Super Data Science: ML & AI Podcast with Jon Krohn (2/wk), Eye on AI Weekly Research Watch (20.9/wk).
Follow them all at once
Clicking Follow on thirty-seven rows is nobody's idea of a good time. One button subscribes you to the whole starter pack instead — free, one email to sign in, no password.
Prefer to pick your own? The Follow button on each row adds just that show, and every row lists its raw RSS feed for any podcast app — that is what podcast apps read.
Submit a podcast
Hosting an AI podcast that is not here? Send the feed URL to akshay@hushflowai.com. It appears once it clears the same two rules as everything else — at least 10 episodes and something published within 60 days. Position is computed from AI-centrality, so it cannot be requested or bought.
Frequently asked questions
What are the best AI podcasts in 2026?
We track 37 that are still actively publishing. By AI-centrality the most AI-focused are The Artificial Intelligence Show, AI in Education Podcast, Earley AI Podcast, The Artificial Human, Leveraging AI.
How do you decide which podcasts make the list?
At least 10 collected episodes and something published within 60 days. 10 of 49 tracked shows did not qualify.
Are these ranked by quality?
No. They are ranked by how much of each show is actually about AI, which we can measure. Quality is a judgement we cannot.
Is the list kept up to date?
It is rebuilt from the feeds themselves, so a podcast that stops publishing drops off rather than sitting here for years. Last verified 2026-08-03.
