Inspiring podcasts for creatives and/or writers?

Question

Why Women Grow Podcast: This podcast is what I listen to when I need calmness. It’s a series of interviews with women about their gardens and why they grow plants. Often the interviews are conducted in the garden and you can hear birds in the background. I love the moments when you can sense a woman is pointing at a specific plant nearby and talking about her affection for it.

Start with the Sarah Raven episode. The conversation about leaf color made me eyeball plants at the garden center and thinking how I can use them to add new tonal dimensions.

As the Season Turns: Not a whole podcast, but rather a specific episode: Found Sound for May 2026, which features a lovely interview of author Max Porter. (Although the podcast is quite good, just not focused on writing per se.)
