I’d second Radiolab, my favorite. I’d also add the TED Radio Hour - which is similar to Radiolab in the style and scope of topics addressed, if you like one, you may well like the other.
And for something out of left field and not to everyone’s taste - Welcome To Night Vale. It’s a work of fiction, as opposed to most of the other podcasts suggested and sort of hard to describe - kind of like Prarie Home Companion, but absurd, eerie, and darkly humorous. However it’s well-regarded and potentially worth a shot.
