Initial disclaimer: I’m very much a progressive person.

Recently listening to podcasts like Heavyweight, Reply All, Invisibilia, Underunderstood etc, I noticed that while the episode - or podcast overall - is investigative journalism lite, something incidental but progressive might happen (using the correct pronouns for a trans person, for example.) I also recently rewatched the Some More News episode on why conservative comedy is so awful, which sparked my pondering.

So… while I’m not interested in veering to the right, this did get me wondering what content might be out there that I’ve not been exposed to at all. Are there (relatively) apolitical podcasts out there that mirror those lite journalism examples above?

    I would argue there is a difference between getting addicted to a drug, and trying to educate one’s self to other political views.

      yeah, and I was educating myself on how people can get addicted to bad-smelling shit… and here we are.
