Like in the same vein as Ask Amy or Dear Prudence. I'm trying to get away from Best of Redditor Updates but I'm not ready to quit my "oh no she didn't!" addiction just yet.

Dan Savage is the best in the biz.

I'll second this. Only podcast I actually subscribe to the ad-less version, to support it.

Slate has a pretty good one called Dear Prudence. I used to enjoy NYT The Ethicist but haven't really read it frequently in years.

For workplace specific advice Alison at AskAManager.org usually has a pretty good & entertaining thing going.

And yeah BoRU is one of the communities I miss the most from having quit reddit cold turkey.

Not exactly what you’re looking for, but for a laugh, check out the We’re Here to Help podcast :)
