Extremely Minimalist Home Page

I have a simple podcast blog: https://takeituneasy.com and have been using the default theme (Twenty Fourteen). But I would like to create a look that at least on the homepage is nothing but a list of titles for ALL the posts (each linking to the full post). Black text with clean professional typography, white background. Maybe also the Categories widget and a few links to pages, but nothing else. Is there a theme like that? Is this a good idea? The themes labeled as “minimalist” still have way too much stuff going on.
