Behind the Bastards, Linux Lads, Linux Late Night, The Infinite Monkey Cage (when they do episodes), some spanish stuff for listening practice (mostly Hoy Hablamos), Hack-a-Day, Self-Hosted, and Cory Doctorow…
NPR Politics and NPR Morning Edition for general news.
The Sporkfull for cooking/food (Sohla and Ham are fantastic). Ologies for interesting science people talking about their passions. Nightmare on Film Street for horror movies talk.
Meditation Minis and Nothing Much Happens for bringing it down.
5-4, Strict Scrutiny, and What Roman Mars Can Learn About Con Law when I want to be mad/sad/frustrated with my country’s judicial system.
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.
The one I listen the most and for the longest is No such thing as a fish.
Other that that, Better Offline, Darknet diaries, Money Stuff, Search engine, a local politics one that I disagree with but I use to be aware of what my local conservative pseudo fascists are arguing about.
And not so regularly many others whenever there’s an interesting episode.
