Unpowered mics (otherwise known as Dynamic mics) are a great choice for podcasters without access to a sound proof studio. Find out why. 
I recommend 
Samson Q2U dynamic microphone
Audio Technica AT2005 dynamic microphone
Audio Technica ATR2100x dynamic microphone
But check them out yourself before buying. See other reviews elsewhere, please!!

PRODUCTION NOTES
Mic: Samson Q2U 
Mic position: Handheld (bad, bad, idea especially for a Q2U which picks up hand sounds - but circumstances forced me!)
Recording Device: Zoom H6 Digital Recorder
Recording Software: Audacity
Recording location: Sitting on my bed. 
Recording format: 24 bit WAV file
Sample rate: 44100Hz
Editing app: Audacity
Sound Treatment: Auphonic Productions at Auphonic.com
Auphonic.com settings [to output as a 16bit mono WAV file]: Adaptive Leveler (on), Loudness Normalization (Loudness Target -19 LUFS ), Filtering (on), Noise and Hum Reduction (Reduction Amount: Auto), Sample rate: 44.1kHz
I uploaded the resulting WAV file to Anchor.fm to host the file and added the music from their free music stock.
Anchor automatically converts the WAV file into a 128kbps .m4a file
