Either for theory or for news, US primarily?
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!
Well There’s Your Problem is an international treasure
Pod Damn America, Trillbilly Workers’ Party, and Chapo Trap House are also a good time
I like Citations Needed.
Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here are both pretty great.
Richard Wolff does a great podcast - Economic Update
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
- General audiobooks
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.
Not specifically socialist but The Majority Report is a good progressive/leftist podcast for news and politics
Anarchist News does a roundup podcast of recent stories often, I think it’s either weekly or bi-weekly. Clearly news related.
I used to listen to The Deprogram but eventually I couldn’t ignore their bad takes. I don’t think there’s any good non-tankie podcasts from what I’ve seen. If anyone has one please let me know as well.
Everyone has bad takes. Take the good from it and leave the bad. Like tankies or not, but they tend to know more theory then the average socialist. I listen to Vaush, he has some good takes, but he’s also pro NATO, which is no bueno for me.
I have yet to hear a single tankie who has even the most rudimentary understanding of theory. Vaush is good, I don’t like some of his takes and he’s a bit whiny on occasion but he’s doing good work bringing people to the left.
The guy that created this platform is a Marxist-Leninist, and has read some theory. His essays : Desalinnes.
