Nah there's plenty of new things that have podcasts about them e.g. Ark, BitVM, BIP324. Or new discussions brought on by what's going on in the ecosystem.
I've been shouting about bitcoin since early 2013, and I still listen to a lot of bitcoin podcasts myself. This narrative that it's all repeat stuff is incorrect IMO. Yes you should filter and curate your feed, but that's always been true.

I guess I should have been more specific. Podcasts with new tech topics are abundant, as you mention. Discussions abt "what's going on in the ecosystem" are I suppose literally happening -- news about whether an ETF will be approved, or the Texas grid, or how Elizabeth Warren is terrible, or whether ordinals are stupid or not, or whether Udi or Nic are bad or good. Whatever.
To me, these are all just high-frequency noise, in the same way that news about a new donut shop opening is high-frequency noise. Nothing wrong with that, some people want to know the donut situation, but on a meta level, I don't care. If it wasn't this donut shop, it would be some other one.
Back in the day there were discussions about what btc meant, what it portended for the world, what the implications would be. Your brain was constantly blowing up trying to absorb it. This was the Age of Andreas. Hard to find that now. Not sure there's a market for it, either.

I delight in being proven wrong, most of the time. Counter-examples are welcome.
