Either for theory or for news, US primarily?
Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here are both pretty great.
On that note, Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff, hosted by Margaret Killjoy, is a good counterbalance to Behind the Bastards.
Yup, love all of these!
I would classify The Dollop along the lines of Behind the Bastards as well. Although it’s more comedy, it definitely gets political.
Yeah I love these
Aww man, do I have a list for you.
- General audiobooks
- LibriVox Public domain book collection where you can find audiobooks from old communist, socialist, and anarchist authors.
- Anarchist audiobooks
- Socialist Audiobooks
- Communalism Audiobooks
I’m painfully aware that I’m necroposting, but I had to rise up out of the ether to thank you for this well curated list of sources.
Glad you benefited!
- General audiobooks
I’m not sure they really fit the ask but you might like Srsly Wrong
I listened to an episode just now. That’s a Srsly good podcast!
listening to that right now lol, the new episode on evolutionary psychology is great
I love how it’s both very well researched and thoughtful but also genuinely funny and creative and entertaining.
I love the Wrong Boys. ❤️ They are a bright light of hope and ideas in a dark time.
Not specifically socialist but The Majority Report is a good progressive/leftist podcast for news and politics
My favorite podcasts are “SRSLY WRONG” and “Everyday anarchism”. If I had to express my political view using media, I’d list these two in this order.
Absolutely adore these lil’ guys
The Final Straw Radio Podcast is great for anarchist news.
Well There’s Your Problem is an international treasure
Pod Damn America, Trillbilly Workers’ Party, and Chapo Trap House are also a good time
Richard Wolff does a great podcast - Economic Update
I like Citations Needed.
I find “The socialist Program” is very good and has a more global view than other US centric socialist pods
There is Andrewism and lil bill on YouTube, but can’t think of any others.
“Well There’s Your Problem” a podcast about engineering disasters, with slides (and actionable threats,) fits surprisingly well. Especially The God-damn News section.
CrimethInc and itsgoingdown both have some good ones.
Behind the Bastard’s episodes on Makhno are mandatory.
Others covered my favorites , but some more loosely fitting ones in no particular order: For the Wild, Working people, Coffee with Comrades, What’s Left of Philosophy, Total Liberation (recently ended), The Ex-Worker.
While not strictly about politics, the tech podcasts Tech Won’t Save Us and Trash Future are quite good and generally anticapitalist.
My favorites for news: Head in the Office for US Ironweeds for New York Trashfuture for UK
My favorites for theory is Srsly Wrong and Pick Me Up, I’m Scared
Favorites for history is Behind the Bastards and Blowback
