I’ve only discovered this podcast recently, but it seems very good

The blurb says

“[Lynsky and Dunt] “focus their attention on exploring a single over-used (and over-abused) word or phrase. Through a combination of historical, etymological and contextual analysis, they unmask the true meaning of our most popular misinterpreted expressions—giving listeners keen insight into the murky nature of political and societal communication.”

…but it’s an awful lot more entertaining, and usually less heavy than that
