Their leftism is sometimes pretty damned blatant. But I can let those parts go, since the overall vibe is awesome.
I’ve been listening for a while. I’m listening chronologically, so I think I’m around April 2019 or so right now. With the demise of Google podcasts, is there a better choice for Android apps?
I’ve been using Pocket Casts for about 5 years now, and I love it. Although, I’ve been thinking about switching to AntennaPod, because it’s Open Source
I love the sheer glee in his voice when he gets to talk about libertarians. I highly recommend his podcasts on Crypto, the Libertarian Sea Nations, and the Titan Sub. He also really understands deep internet lore and does a really good job explaining it in a way for people not as familiar with the topics. Case and point, I found the episode with the founder of 8-chan to be extremely informative and a great nuanced discussion on the value of free speech and the limits. Anything with Billy Wade Davies is a treat too.
I like their style. They show it’s possible to talk about horrible things lightheartedly, without making the audience feel the hopelessnes in the face of human madnes and cruelty.
I also recomend the Last Podcast on The Left
My favorite series of theirs: Vince McMahon (May 15, 2023), the Moonies (Mar 8, 2022), and Bobby Fisher (Feb 14, 2023).
My recommendation for first listeners is John McAfee. Those episodes are so off the wall.
