so many

sorry most of these are history podcasts bc that’s mostly what i listen to but there’s a range of topics last week tonight with john oliver (youtube) - he recaps the last week or a specific topic in a very understandable funny yet educational way conflicted: a history podcast - for something a bit more serious in tone - its deep dives into different events in history especially those that don’t get much attention book club (bbc) - discussions of books with the authors and a group of readers - so many episodes going back years to choose from slow burn - season long deep dives into events like the clinton impeachment, lead up to the iraq war, rise of clarence thomas anthropocene reviewed - has a more hopeful tone - john green reviewing and explaining different aspects of the world like orbital sunrises contrapoints (youtube) - tackles different topics from a lot philosohical cultural sociological perspective - love the video on twilight us & them - talks about decisive problems in the us from both sides my fav episode is the gun divide colorless wonderland (youtube) - my fav book channel hes so enthusiastic and has such unique book recs the morbid zoo (youtube) - deep dives into horror and thriller movies from sociological cultural perspective - she’s so smart and and well read my fav videos are on civil war and sound of freedom nice try! - exploration of design and its interactions with people history government and more - highly recommend the episode about chandigarh or germania radio lab - tackles interesting questions that combine law science history sociology - my fav episodes are playing god and eye in the sky the audio long read - podcast form of long stories from the guardian on a bunch of different topics more: - throughline - philosophy tube - 99% invisible - the experiment - longform - what roman mars can learn about con law - codeswitch - in our time - audacious with chion wolf - story corps - the daily - ologies

This is my niche

I basically only listen to these sorts of podcasts so hopefully these recs will be of use to you If books could kill - very funny but also informed and thorough discussions of non fiction books - has helped be more critical about what I read and be aware of how authors distort facts and create narratives Radiolab - investigative deep dives into a range of topics - I would really recommend the ep playing god Us and them - deep dives into systemic issues in the us like gun violence Through line - goes back into the history of various topics like the history of smell Ologies - lighthearted but very informative episodes about various niche fields - I love the episodes on thanatology Nice try! - focuses on the history of design and architecture that usually isn’t covered - really rec the ep about germania (Germany during and after hitler) Conflicted: a history podcast - really rec the series in the partition of India Natalie Haynes stands up for the classics - very entertaining recaps of Greek myths Book club bbc - interviews with authors Others: - the experiment (the Atlantic) - search engine - you’re wrong about - classy with jonathan menjivar (talks about ‘taste’ ans his that intersects with class) - articles of interest (deep dives into fashion and history) - in our time - 20000 hertz - longform (very insightful interviews) - song exploder - unexplainable - the Anthropocene reviewed - you must remember this - 99% invisible - the rest is history - the great women artists Hope you find some podcasts you love ❤️

Butter

First of all, English muffins. Second of all: popcorn. But even vegan butter (I’m looking at you, Miyokos) slaps. Butter it up!

Top seedz

I am like a woodchuck, just chomping through these things. Can’t recommend enough. A real mood lifter for anyone who loves to chew stuff relentlessly, and/or wonder what bark, dirt, and spit mixed together tastes like (great).
