Any people you like listening to or sites with teachings you like?
That does not work like that, at least here. We have kind of Orthodox media with preaches and all that stuff, but it is popular mostly among specific type of those who wanna look like hardcore believers for themselves. There was attempts to make orthodox christianity "popular" or "fashionable" in western meaning, but they are failed. People don't need that.
There is orthodox literature, books written by different people, not necessary priests. Really most of known Russian literature is orthodox, one way or another.
If you want something to get the very basics of orthodox christianity, may be try "Dialogues" by archpriest Valentin - you could find it interesting - https://azbyka.ru/otechnik/Valentin_Sventsitskij/dialogi/ (Try to use online translator, not shure it will give perfect translation, but at least you will get something). I think it is a very good introduction in Orthodox Christianity for an adult newbie. Something like Orthodoxy ReadMe. Why, how, where - all basic stuff.
If you have real, practical questions, you could just go to church and have a talk with a real priest who carry the touch of Christ through sequence of ordinations. No need for podcasts and sites with teachings. May be just Grace of God could not be stored on hard drives and people feel that.
Check out on YT Jay Dyer, Church of the Eternal Logos, Abbot Tryphon, Father Spyridon Bailey and Father Josiah Trenham Also checkout orthowiki for general questions.
There is only one way to find out. :)
PS: I'm Orthodox Christian.
Raised orthodox?
Baptised and raised orthodox. As most kids in USSR. Of course real understanding comes with age.
