Another Darknet Diaries fan here. Very approachable, centered around cyber security and privacy. It’s the only one I am currently listening to, but I am going to check out some of the others from this thread.
I wouldn’t call it a scandal at all. MKBHD has a company that relies on Apple hardware and software. They will very gladly accept any bribing from them.
The Daily Zeitgeist - a daily rundown of the news and pop culture Behind the Bastards 16th Minute (of Fame) - reviewing internet main characters and adding context to what is generally known about them Factually - Adam Conover interviews experts The Dollop - two comedians tell stories from history Bad Hasbara - two anti-Zionist Jews discuss Israeli propaganda, usually with a guest Pod Yourself [x] - episode by episode recap of tv shows. First the Sopranos (pod yourself a gun) then The Wire (pod yourself the wire) and upcoming is Mad Men. Search Engine Some More News - news deep dives and weekly current events.
Came here to see if anyone else was plugging the other CZM podcasts. I’ve expanded out to Cool People (I especially like the anarchist book club stories) and It Could Happen Here.
I wouldn’t call myself an anarchist by any means, but I like how they get to both the root causes of issues and also give some ideas on things we can do to make some of these situations better. That last part is what I feel is missing from just about every other show about current events.
That’s good to know there’s more like this. My issue with a lot of politics online is that it feels like all blind anger and defeatism. With things were they talk to those actually involved in the events and those working to fix things, it makes it a much more positive experience to stay up to date on issues.
Currently Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History. Love it because he’s good at the storytelling and there aren’t a lot of sponsored segments like other popular shows.
