But the podcast is called “Talk Tuah” which you have to admit is pretty good.
It's the warmongering opposite of dove tuah.
Also:
I...can't disagree with that statement.

Looks like everyone can start a podcast. Maybe we should too?

Everybody HAS a podcast, it's super saturated.
I’m the oddball, I don’t have one, don’t plan on starting one, and don’t listen to any. To me, podcasts fall down around audiobooks, I can read it faster, and don’t have to listen to you butcher the language at the same time.
I've thought about starting a podcast, but I don't know what it'd be on.
One idea I had was doing an issue-by-issue deep dive of James Robinson's Starman comic. But I'd want to do it with a co-host or two.

I listen to podcasts at double speed

That seems to be the beauty of it, they don't have to be "about" anything. Just people talking about random shit.
It seems like the good ones at least have a subject or theme around it. I don't listen to many. Just, like, three: Pod Meets World, Factually, and Save Your Game. I barely have the time or patience for even those.

You're using a lot of qualifiers like "good." Just because something is good doesn't mean it will succeed, and just because something isn't good doesn't mean it will fail. There's way more dreck that succeeds than "good" ones that succeed.
You're also assuming that people who listen to podcasts have the same interests and attention span as you do. Let me tell you, however low your estimation of the common man, it's too high. Half the time, they aren't even listening the way you define listening. They spend all day listening to something and at the end don't even remember what it was about. It was just noise they liked. My GF spends all day, literally ALL day, doing her work while listening to a computer generated voice read random reddit stories that are all 100% made up stuff. It's shit. But if she doesn't listen to it, she goes insane. Don't even get me started on what the boy listens to, or my cleaning lady.
Meanwhile:
Oh sure, but when _I_ do it, it's weird.
...I think you should pet him first.
