After the Fact is an excellent podcast that I've listened to sometimes. It's done by the Pew Charitable Trusts. Each week they take a specific statistic or data point and use it as a jumping off point for a discussion and interview. Some of these might work for your students, and even if they don't, you may find them of personal interest!
This season's theme is Conversations on Science—what it is, how it’s conducted and explained to the public, and how it affects our lives.
"During the pandemic, the world is living through a science experiment. We’ll examine that as well as how scientists build trust with nonscientists, how to increase diversity among researchers, and how science becomes public policy. We speak with scientists and researchers—from Dr. Anthony Fauci and Pew Biomedical Scholar Pamela Bjorkman, who are on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic, to “Science Friday” host Ira Flatow and physicist and bestselling author Carlo Rovelli, who speak about the scientific process and why it matters."
