It feels like every time I find a podcast about security/networking/technology the hosts end up saying some pretty off-color stuff, or I look them up and they also host right wing podcasts. Are there any that are more leftist, hosted by LGBT peeps, or at least not actively bigoted ?

      Maybe you don’t, but many do. Why bother replying if you’re insinuating you don’t?

      One could say that conservatives can be very passionate about their political beliefs. If you’re listening to a podcast about technology, or any other topic for that matter, you might find it off-putting for the host to interject with their irrelevant beliefs. Obviously there are times when politics can be topical to the conversation. That usually revolves around legal cases and policy making.

      I’m glad you pointed this out. We need to move past the “this person said something I don’t agree with so I will never interact with them again”

      Identity politics are bad and we should not be beholden to them.

      People and their technical knowledge are more than their political views.
