For those interested statistics or how numbers in general are used in everyday
discourse, I highly recommend the BBC podcase "More or Less: Behind the Stats".

They frequently bring up in an interesting way ridiculous use of "studies" or false numbers that catch on with the public.

It's been a little heavy on numbers related to covid-19 this past year, but it is still good info.
