Sorry I know that's vague, basically I can't keep on top of the middle east thread and want something more detailed than the guardian articles and more frequent than topical common sense episodes.

One the one hand, a major party candidate is openly campaigning for fascism. On the other hand, someone threw eggs at a protest. Turns out the problem is money in politics!

mcmagic posted:Good story on This American Life about loving moron fascist college students who got their feelings boo boo'ed. That sounds funny enough to try listening again. I unsubscribed after one too many "here's 4 semi-autobiographical fantasy stories by a twee humourist" episodes.

buglord posted:Semi relatedly, I was listening to Sunday School Dropouts which is supposed to be a comedic and (at least implied) informational podcast but I couldn’t make it past the first episode. The premise interested me because one of the hosts is also an ex catholic/Christian and I think that offers an interesting perspective when talking about the bible. The Bible Geek might be up your alley

golden bubble posted:The major WWI offensives are more than just insanity. Every time they attack, high command is convinced that they've discovered one simple trick that will totally crack the enemy trenches, and sometimes the latest trick comes close to pulling it off. But it turns out that a single innovation was never enough to break trench warfare. Instead, the armies needed to develop the beginnings of modern combined arms tactics to punch through. 1918 tactics are closer to 1939 tactics than to 1914 tactics. Großer Generalstabs hate this one weird trick!

Snowy posted:Are there any especially good lefty political podcasts that will be good to follow during the primaries? Something like Chapo or Cum Town but more info/less goofy chattiness. I guess I’m looking for something like Pod Save America but less centrist. The Antifada alternates between chatty discussion episodes and serious theory and analysis.

Jack B Nimble posted:I've heard him do that sometimes, yeah; my defense of Matt Yglesias would be that he's insightful. I listened to the "School's out for Covid" episode this morning and there's his bit starting at about 28:00, about the tension between teacher's unions and teachers, and their differing goals regarding Covid. If you're going to give that one episode a go, you'll also see he doesn't steal the limelight from his coworkers, I think he's gotten better about it over the years. He was really into "what if we took this good idea, and made it worse and more comomicated" when I stopped listening a couple years ago. The female host (Sarah?) was the reason I listened but she got way less time than the two men.

Cockblocktopus posted:Has anyone listened to Fiasco? The David Duke season of Slow Burn was fine I guess but I missed Leon Nayfakh in a way that I didn't in the Biggie & Tupac season, so I was wondering if his new(er) podcast might scratch that itch. I don't mind paying for podcasts but do you have to use a bullshit luminary app

I just stumbled across What's Left of Philosophy and it's been pretty good through the first couple episodes I listened to. I don't think the politics of PEL are terrible (like 2 libs a centrist and a progressive?) but they seem out of their depth talking about anything contemporary.

I thought he did a good job explaining the Japanese perspective in a way we don't often hear when he is able to avoid going into dad—history mode (like the first 1 1/2 episodes) Ill probably listen to this and get mad but hopefully he can pull it back in for the last episode.
