Railroading. Not the next day, but probs pretty quick. There’s a reason Biden nipped the railroad strike in the bud, and my theory as to why he’s trying to build up the “pro-union” image again before the election - he really screwed labor in that move.


The School of Life. Terrible channel that sometimes offers potentially dangerous and incorrect info. They paint far too broad a brush considering how complex psychology is. I remember Big Joel did a good video about them a while back.


A lot of my faves have been mentioned (BtB, wtyppod, Bad Gays), so here’s a few I haven’t seen lited here.

Discussion Podcasts

It’s Not Just In Your Head: Therapists talking about the intersection of mental health, capitalism, and treatments (problems with how we go about it and what we could change).

The War on Cars: What it sounds like, urbanists talking about biking, transit, issues with car oriented development.

Tech Won’t Save Us: Interviews with people, having critical conversations of different technologies. Discusses issues of tech, capitalism, surveillance, and more.

Total Liberation: Leftist podcast discussing a variety of topics about the decay of capitalism and how we can recreate and liberate ourselves.

Audio Dramas/Story Podcasts

The Punumbra Podcast: I listen to the Juno Steel series, it’s about a private detective on Mars. Great story and characters, a bit more humorous but will also destroy you emotionally in the best way. Also very queer!

The Bright Sessions: People with super powers go to therapy. I really loved the world they created and how they relate the super powers and mental health.

Scare You to Sleep: Scary stories read in a calm voice. The stories are really good, I actually like the hosts original stories that she sometimes reads quite a lot.


From my grandma (who got it from her father):

“Of course the story is true, it just didn’t happen”

Essentially, the story is more important than the actual event.
