After a long day, I like coming home and playing video games while listening to funny leftist podcasts that don’t really take themselves too seriously. So basically the opposite of revleft radio, citations needed, cushvlogs, etc, as these are usually pretty serious and dense (with info) and require me to devote brain power.
I don’t really know that many podcasts so the only ones that I can really think of that go with what I’m talking about are like pod damn america and (sometimes) true anon. I think CTH and cumtown would also work but I’ve never really given them a chance because I’m not interested in listening to libs.
CTH is like 90% chill, there’s a reason it became the ad-hoc rallying point for the online left so you should give it a shot if you haven’t already. I would suggest checking out any one of their best episodes (the Noid episode, any episode where they read Rod Dreher, the Sorkin reviews and the episode on conservative political cartoons jump to mind).
Aside from that the only other podcast I’ve stuck with for a long time is :wtyp: . Their are a few episodes where they go full CIA brainworms about AES states that I don’t like, but usually it’s just a very slow recounting of some kind of engineering failure with a bunch of dry riffs from the hosts sprinkled in. They’ll also make you really appreciate OSHA and wish it had the power to summarily execute repeat offenders.
My list of “I would like to laugh at the horror instead of cry right now” left podcasts are: beep beep lettuce, trashfuture (not always), trillbillies, boonta vista, bigsofttitty.png, masters of our domain, and, of course, your kickstarter sucks.
Tom and Demi speaking at length about how crabs would rob a bank is EXACTLY the kind of thing I throw on to unwind. This is not sarcasm.
Trillbilly’s is great. Chill, Kentucky Leftists. It comes out Thursday’s so I just listen out back during the summer and have a beer or two and it’s perfect
Trillbillies Workers’ Party is good. Definitely don’t take themselves too serious.
Your Kickstarter Sucks
Looks interesting, should I start from the beginning or is it better to watch the more recent ones?
I’d recommend listening to the more recent ones to see if you like it, the first 50ish episodes have some rough audio so maybe only go back for those if you absolutely love the show
it’s great and what the other person said about jump in at like episode 50 except don’t miss episode 8 (fishy flip)
