Empire. I've only listened to the first "season" which was on British India, but it was really interesting. Seems like they have covered a hell of a lot since then.

• Blowback
• Guerrilla History
• BBC Radio: In Our Time

Nomads and Empires. Quite like Fall of Civilisations, but shorter. On nomadic cultures.

The Ancients. On various topics, but mostly history, archeology, but also classical work of arts like Greek tragedies, etc.

Sidedoor, there is some historical stuff, but mostly on various topics. Smithsonian history museum podcast. Recommed The Lost Woolly Dog episode, such a wholesome episode on now-extinct breed of dog native to the N-American continent.

Lore, of course, it is folk tales and myths inspired by historical events. American folklore.

Dark Histories. This one is like Lore, but Victorian era Britain. It goes through prominent crimes in that era, gives a narrative of the events.

You must remember this. This one is about the history of films, Hollywood and the events behind them. If you're into films, this is a good one. It goes through films by decades, analyses themes and topics, prominent actors, film makers and directors.

Shedunnit. If you're into crime and mystery novels. Especially female writers from last century around when the genre was established. Again, a lot of history behind the evolution of the genre.

Creative Codex. This one is a gem. It is about creative geniuses, like fashion designers and musicians and writers and artists. The host examines their creations through various themes, contrasted by the authors biography. Really makes you appreciate the art when you know the context of the artists life behind it. All episodes are good, but Emily Dickinson is a good one and so is Alexander McQueen episodes. This is not history, but as it is art, it might be interesting nontheless.

Seconding Blowback, it's incredible.

History of philosophy without any gaps

Fall of Civilizations. And History of Rome.
