BodhiHeart Podcast with Khenpo Sherab Sangpo is another great podcast and youtube channel. Khenpo Sherab Sangpo is also in the Tibetan tradition but is in the Nyingma Lineage. It covers a lot of basics though.

I like listening in on the Zen studies podcast [1]by Domyo Burke. It's very beginner-friendly too.
