Checking out The Allusionist. Thanks. I enjoy imshawngetoffmylawn on YouTube, more language content is much appreciated!
R.I.P Hello Internet, the podcast I most wish would come back. Forever in my subs just in case.
Knowledge Fight - Analysis of Alex Jones and his fucked up world
God Awful Movies - Let’s watch bad religious movies and talk shit about them
Behind the Bastards - Details about evil fuckers in history (and the present)
If Books Could Kill - let’s read shitty airport books and talk about them
Qanon Anonymous (QAA now?) - The Qanon conspiracy world is fucking wild. Best keep track of it.
Others more sporadically.
+1 for If Books Could Kill. They’ve kinda run out of shitty famous self help books, but they still do good rundowns on other books now.
I’ll also recommend Michael Hobbes’ other podcast, Maintenance Phase, which is largely about health grifts.
Upvote for knowledge fight and BtB. I also personally love The Dollap
- I was a teenaged fundamentalist
- soft skills engineering
- radió ambulante
- real python
- brief history of mathematics

Behind the Bastards, Linux Lads, Linux Late Night, The Infinite Monkey Cage (when they do episodes), some spanish stuff for listening practice (mostly Hoy Hablamos), Hack-a-Day, Self-Hosted, and Cory Doctorow…
Have you found Spanish Obsessed? It’s a Colombian/English couple who just have conversations in Spanish about random topics at an intermediate level.
They have several podcasts, so make sure to find the intermediate level for the conversations. Their beginner level has much more spoken English and basic Spanish vocab, which I’m not as into.
The one I listen the most and for the longest is No such thing as a fish.
Other that that, Better Offline, Darknet diaries, Money Stuff, Search engine, a local politics one that I disagree with but I use to be aware of what my local conservative pseudo fascists are arguing about.
And not so regularly many others whenever there’s an interesting episode.
local politics one that I disagree with but I use to be aware of what my local conservative pseudo fascists are arguing about.
I really need to find something like for my area. I like to hear what’s being said in these circles.
Darknet Diaries
None apart from that. You’re better off listening to pirated audiobooks, especially the full-cast kind with SFX like those created by GraphicAudio

Okay… what’s the difference between a beautiful and highly produced radio program and a podcast?
That’s a good point.
Well fine then! I’ll keep them to myself.
Waveform
Oh , I thought no one is still following MBKHD after the Apple scandal.
What scandal? Search comes out empty.
Search on YouTube, louis rossmann MBKHD.
I thought he touched some kids, dude.
I wouldn’t call it a scandal at all. MKBHD has a company that relies on Apple hardware and software. They will very gladly accept any bribing from them.
