except it hasn't. We are probably on the cusp on another big surge given the riots hence the banwave to preempt it actually. AR organizations were snipped and their platforms are underground but the membership never declined. Anyways, FtN is still the top ranked podcast in this sphere even if allsup has a long way to go if he wants to match Jazzhand's shoes

I don't care much for her politics, but I liked this travelogue Greta did.
>Climate activist Greta Thunberg urges world leaders to do more. ”Doing our best is no longer good enough. We must now do the seemingly impossible,” Thunberg says in the Swedish Radio show “Summer on P1” where she takes us along her trip to the front lines of the climate crisis.

It was pretty insightful the first time I listened to it and now I'm going through it again. Basically a cognitive science perspective on the so-called meaning crisis and various philosophical approaches throughout history.

Aufhebunga is basically the podcast that left politics has been crying out for. 1. it's not america focused. They do episodes that have in depth focus on the political scene of various countries. Recently did some on Serbia, Singapore, Lebanon and the UK for example. So in that sense you get a broad education. 2. it's a marxist leaning podcast not a radlib one.

Has anyone else noticed that a disproportionate about of podcast seem to come from California and be by far leftist?

Anyway, I like most things produced by Parcast Network
Unlike a lot of shit their stuff is actually properly scripted and really well produced. It is professional and they keep their personal politics out of the subject they are covering.

My favorites are their true crime stuff and their show Cults.

I really like dead rabbit radio. It's about crime, paranormal stuff, conspiracy theories and stuff like that. Jason, the host, seems like a pretty decent guy and he doesn't talk about politics at all, something that is a rarity among podcasters. Sometimes he's pretty silly but I enjoy it nonetheless. The only thing I don't like is that the episodes are pretty short, around 30 mins, so when you catch up you have only half an hour a week of podcast. There's still over 300 episodes so you have a lot to watch.

Started checking out this podcast about cybercrime and security called Darkweb Diaries.
Same format as many true crime shows I listen to, only more about hacking, breaches, and fraud then murder.

If you are into true crime and tech related stuff I highly recommend it.

The podcast is called Undesign and it's two middle-aged guys talking about table-top role-playing games. When they talk about specific ones it's usually the various editions of DnD, Shadowrun or BattleTech. Otherwise the topics relate to specific aspects common to games of this type. They apparently have a list of topics from which they select one by dice-roll each episode and then talk about it for 15 to 25 minutes. Sometimes it's just fun to listen to them recalling anecdotes, sometimes it's insightful to hear them analyse specific aspects of games from a player, GM or developer perspective. However, the last episode was published last summer so it has been on hiatus for a while now.
One of the two hosts (which is an unfitting word since there are no guests) is Vincent Venturella, whose name will probably already be familiar to some who might be interested in this from Warhammer Weekly - his his other podcast with more participants which is also currently still active and can be found on YouTube. As the name implies it's about Warhammer - primarily Age of Sigmar - and also episodes can easily be over two hours in length.
I like to listen to both of these during my nightshifts on the weekend because it's more mind candy and pleasant background noise than serious business and hard facts and it doesn't matter too much if I don't pay attention every once in a while.

The mental Illness happy hour. The stories are rarely amazing but most guests are normies unfortunately. The reader letters are really eye popping

Found yet another true crime podcast I "like".

Human Monsters.
It isn't for the faint of heart. The first few episodes are about child abuse and it gets into extraordinary levels of detail.

It's one of those kind of shows where by it even existing on several platforms it proves that the censorship is totally bullshit when done or those platforms.
Like they will censor alex jones or joe rogan over wrong think meanwhile this podcast describes a toddler being tortured and raped for years in medical detail for a hour and a half is a-okay.

Anyway it also goes into detail about the investigation, trials, and punishments too. So it isn't just suffering porn or whatever. It's more like someone reading case files without holding anything back and adding in news clips and interviews to give full context.
Once you get over the horror of some of the cases it's actually a little dry in presentation but eventually the guy who does the podcast does start branching out by doing interviews.

Wouldn't recommend if you aren't already into true crime as it doesn't sugarcoat how fucked up humans can be.

as someone struggling with mental illness, I really enjoy the mental illness happy hour. the host actually talks to people via email and gives a fuck. most of his interviews are normie as fuck but some have really interesting back stories. I plan to be on there someday to talk about my journey of autism and MDD/PTSD to neetbucks

I remember seeing that in the listings but something about the descriptions and episode titles made me think it was just more progressive propaganda using the the meaning of psychology as a weapon.

If I am totally wrong I would be willing to actually give it a chance.

well duh paul gilmartin the host is a progressive as alot of podcast hosts are. i just avoid the lgbtbbq/tranny stories but honestly i havent seen much propoganda on most of the episodes.

Carlin is fantastic. One of the few podcasts I have to sit down and concentrate on. Too good to listen to while occupied.

I also enjoy

>Joe Rogan

Not overrated. He can be a bit annoying but he is very down to earth and "real". His deep curiosity, style of questioning and layman perspective make him the perfect guy to talk to interesting people. And he interviews/chats with MANY interesting people. He has 1600+ episdoes, many 3h+ long, and I've found out about many amazing ideas from his podcasts, despite the fact that he is a "meme" for lack of a better term. his podcast is my favorite because of the sheer amount of interesting discussion, guests, unfiltered discussion about edgy topics, and the way the conversations are very natural (nothing like MSM interviews)

>Trash Taste

3 youtube ecelebs talk about life in japan, otaku culture, and talk shit about life. they are normies through and through, but it's nice to listen to a good quality podcast about otaku culture with 3 friends that have excellent chemistry

>VORW

reviewbrah/reportoftheweek's podcast. very comfy feeling, the guy is a wizard through and through, totally owns it, lives how he wants. lots of varied discussion with mildly interesting perspectives

>extremities

podcast about people and places that are extreme, such as isolated islands. talks about how they live and what life is like there. nice window to another world

Cum Town went on for years. basically just a comfy comedy podcast with 3 comedians lazily making retarded ironic (for lack of a better word) jokes and shit. massive normies, but still some seriously funny moments. good guests. massive audience so anyone they talked about got unintentionally doxxed (Tom Myer's getting heckled, Nick losing a $250,000 Superbowl advert, shit like that).

kind of a love or hate thing. so many episodes that I still listen/re-listen to them while playing video games, you can just set it to auto-play edits.

you get Adam's gimmick of being insanely Jewish (pic related was funny) and ruining riffs. Stav's gimmick is being a fatass who's basically a laugh track who made "im gay and my dick is small" jokes for years and it got seriously old - not that he didn't have funny moments, he just got lazier as the years went on. literally left the podcast a few months ago. Nick Mullen is absolutely the glue, and honestly one of the funniest comedians alive imo. Nick took double the salary of the rest (but they make £110,000/month on Patreon alone, and they always were self-aware about being fucking stupid for what they actually do)

a few favourites:
Alt-Right Homer Simpson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Htbl-NGGSdc

Gay Batman:

Bill Mahr n-word Intro:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izKFg3bB2RA

Scumbag Vinny (the guest is someone who fans of the show kept harassing as being the worst guest of all time in a previous episode with Bam Margeria from Jackass):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3rcS0aOwFo

it's got way better since Stav left, he was always the least funny but the Adam Friedland Show is way better now (the name itself is a joke since Nick is obviously funnier). all the episodes so far are the funniest they've been in years. I doubt their creative streak will last long, but they've been really experimental as of late (the 'Count Dracula interview', Adam interviewing people for made-up producer roles)

the new bit they have where Adam invites vapid celebrities on just to deliberately sabotage the interview/the episode where Nick deliberately does embarrassingly shit stand-up.

anyway you either find it funny or you dont. its not really wizardly, but I find them comfy, and better when you get into the dynamic.

also, Reviewbrah's podcast. I dont like Joe Rogan much. he's good at what he does, but there are so many trash guests.

keep enjoying what you enjoy, I wouln't have brought them up if I wasn't replying to someone else. comedic taste is probably more subjective than almost any other.

I'd been listening for years but eventually lost interest. They obviously didn't want to do the show anymore and it made for some pretty unpleasant listening. I checked back in when Stav left and i honestly do not get the hype for the AF show. Like the Dracula interview was not funny and Nick defaulting back to his "I'm not going to put effort into anything because trying is gay". It works when you can listen to it while you're doing other things but i can't sit there and watch Adam fumble lines for half an hour. Maybe it's picked up since and i'm missing out but i think i'm over the whole thing. It did give me some really hard laughs over the past few years though.

Half of TRS turned out to be gay groomers looking for vulnerable men and the other half turned out to be non-white and knew about the groomers but said nothing.

Right wing podcasts are basically impossible to find now and the ones that exist are effectively reactions only. Read news story, say you hate niggers and jews then read another news story saying why you hate niggers and jews. Then get your jewish wife on the christmas episode.

Can any one recommend some retro vidya podcasts that don't feature trannies, virtue signalling or the majority of the show being 2 guys gossiping? I tried the DOS club but they have trannies on and it made my skin crawl. Hate looking forward to a topic and having it ruined by some dude in a dress. Would like more obscure stuff topic wise. Point and click adventures seem especially ripe for podcasts but I don't think a podcast just about them exists.

I like nick and followed his saga from about 2018 to 2020 but his story is kind of dead in the water right now. He got big getting people from Identity Evropa (which "doesn't exist") to troll charlie kirk's speaking engagements and a couple of other people. Then he started getting recognized by the Trump people as a special interest group to appease and was getting informal sponsorships. Stop the steal was the high point, several hundred groypers turned out at all his events and his speeches were all well received. Then he got no-fly'd and Casey broke with him followed by a few other fuckwit characters. I think the nail in the coffin was Kanye, all the attention in the world and yet the utterly worst optics. I think it's over unless Trump comes back.

Nick is a zoomer larper. Out of touch retards think he has some youth market behind him and give him money to try and appeal to them. But the reality is he's just a retard on twitter doing streams.
