 I know there's a Chapo thread but I've noticed the need for a general leftwing podcast thread for C-SPAM to share and plug the latest and greatest in audible agitprop. I've done my best to get a solid range of different lefty podcasts, but please feel free to post others I've left out (Pod Save America is not welcome, you fukken shitlib!!!!) and I'll try to add them to the OP. I've tried to get a solid range of options here for people looking to fill their smooth brains with sharp words about the violence economy of America. Trying for a good mix between comedy, real politics, and daily living - hopefully! Street Fight Radio - https://soundcloud.com/streetfightwcrs  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQM7L-HUXBQ Street Fight Radio is where Chapo got their start, and is the number one anarcho-comedy podcast. Hilarious discussions on the nature of labor, how easily sensitive conservatives are, and how the banks are all fuckers. It's probably the most approachable and relatable left-wing show out there. Great guys with a fantastic patreon: https://www.patreon.com/streetfightradio Citations Needed - https://soundcloud.com/citationsneeded  Citations Needed is an unapologetically leftwing breakdown of the bullshit tactics of the corporate media. Covering a range of topics from New Atheism and foreign policy, Citations Needed challenges how the news stokes the very flames of racism and injustice that infest the American discourse. Reel Politick - https://soundcloud.com/reelpolitikpodcast  Reel Politik is *clears throat* Lawd above! Reel Politik is like a podcast abaaaht british politics from da left. While i' 'an be 'ard ter get in'er due ter just 'a incredibly british i' is like, it's certainly da 'est podcast breakin' down da curren' struggle ov da absolute boy's fight ter take blighty 'ack from da brink ov theresa may's 'ard brexi' economic collapse., innit. Tis wicked legend, mate Radio War Nerd - https://www.patreon.com/radiowarnerd/posts There's already a thread for this in C-SPAM, it's The War Nerd of Exiled fame doing his thing and I'm told it's fantastic Moderate Rebels Radio - https://soundcloud.com/moderaterebelsradio  Ben Norton and Max Blumenthal break down the evils of American foreign policy from an explicitly left-wing perspective. From Syria to North Korea, they cover the current reality of what is happening on the parts of the world we're bombing, and how the media does their best to help Trump drum up support for another war. Their current interview series with anti-war activists in South Korea is a must listen, as it reveals a great deal of how the American military is building up its forces near the border with North Korea. Verso Books - https://soundcloud.com/versobooks  Verso Books is a radical publishing company that occasionally runs interviews with their published or soon to be published authors. Their recent episode about the End of Policing is fantastic in breaking down police as the boots of gentrification in New York. Economic Update with Richard D. Wolff - https://economicupdate.podbean.com/  Economic Update is a serious one-man show that can feel a little NPR-y, but is a genuinely left wing, critical, and enlightened look at the injustice of the American comedy. As he who makes the gold makes the rules, Economic Update will give you a better understanding of the machinations of capitalism that are destroying our foundations in order to enrich the few at the very top. So what else am I missing? What are the great Leftcasts that your fellow goons could be missing out on? Be sure to post if you know of any great episodes we're missing out on.

I don't want to spoil it, it's pretty good. The two of them and their guest basically break down how the whole hustle works, it's genuinely pretty fascinating.

GoluboiOgon posted:That fake add is pretty amazing. The podcast is not however, they engage in holodomor denial and blame the US 100% for the annexation of Crimea. They challenge the "double genocide" narrative, along the lines of counting reduced birth rates as the number of people killed by The Evils of Communism. You may not agree with it, but they break it down in a more substantial way than simple "holodomor denial." There is a lot of hosed up history around the Soviet Union, but American propaganda has gone to significant efforts to pin them as equally evil as the Nazis, while the pure and clean America remains oh so pretty

Hey the new Citations Needed is about how hosed up and white real estate coverage is, I haven’t checked it out yet but it sounds a lot more interesting than weird interpersonal drama

Yossarian-22 posted:What's the best leftie podcast for normies who aren't that political? Trying to proselytize atm Citations Needed, it hits that sweet spot of breaking down corporate propaganda and has just enough humor to keep it punchy. Also each episode is only really half the length of you don’t have the time for listening to low audio quality Skype interviews
