Hi,

I’m a big fan of podcasts and I’ve been enjoying “Against the Rules” and “Darknet Diaries” lately.

Now, I want to hear your recommendations! What podcasts do you love and why? Let’s build an epic list of must-listen podcasts together.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    My top podcasts lately:

    • QAnon Anonymous: started out chronicling the QAnon freakshow but moved towards more general deep dives into modern and past conspiracy movements

    • Minion Death Cult: laughing at right wing comment sections

    • This Is Revolution: great leftist interview/discussion

    • Joy Tactics: extremely funny stuff

    • Uhh Yeah Dude: one of the longest running podcasts out (13 years) and still funny as hell

    I dip into some other podcasts from time to time like Chapo Trap House, Comedy Bang Bang, and Vice’s CYBER.

    I also listen to some paranormal/weird shows that I can recommend if anyone is interested.

    Behind the Bastards, a deep dive into the various shit people of history. Episode one is Saddam Hussein: Erotic Novelist.

    There’s nearly 700 episodes, and I’ve yet to run tio a dud. Loads of great guests. My only gripe is that it’s a touch Amerocentric, but other than that I’d recommend it to basically anyone. Not kid friendly, in case that wasn’t obvious.

      I think it’s only fair to add that this podcast has a very left leaning bias. I’m not saying that that is bad, just being objective.

    I dig My Brother, My Brother, and Me from time to time. It’s just three nerdy brothers dorking out together. They used to answer Yahoo questions but they moved to wiki how’s since Yahoo died. They good for a laugh but even I admit they can be a handful sometimes lol
