I'm pretty open, and not really looking for anything specific here aside from the usual "no liberal bullshit" rule. I did listen to a bit of Chapo for a hot second in 2018 but I could be persuaded to go back if theyre good.

So to that end, what are your favorite episodes of your podcast of choice?

  • Soy Trek—deep dives into Star Trek with relentless inappropriate jokes

  • We're Not So Different—solid and entertaining historical materialism podcast mostly focusing on medieval Europe

  • Last Born in the Wilderness—deep dive interviews hosted by a hexbear user

  • Geopolitical Economy Report—good anti-imperialist news, features economics reports based on de-dollarization with Michael Hudson and Radhika Desai every couple of weeks

  • Anti-Imperialist Archive—extremely depressing audio documentaries about all kinds of fucked up shit

  • It's Not Just In Your Head—good leftwing mental health podcast but sometimes gets annoying in that Big Dick Wolff's wife Harriet Fraad has little if anything positive to say about AES. She does however have many fascinating stories and insights and is otherwise solid (as are the other hosts).

  • Unequal Exchange Podcast—good interviews with many comrades from global south countries. Most recent was a good interview with a dude from Niger.

  • Radio War Nerd—so many deep dives into history and current events but seemingly growing more lib by the second. The podcast has never recovered since the Ukraine War officially started.

  • If Books Could Kill—good but lib podcast about bad books

  • I Don't Even Own A Television—sadly defunct but excellent and hilarious left podcast about bad books

  • The Dollop—pretty famous demsoc podcast where comedians riff on history.

  • The Anti-Empire Project With Justin Podur—really one of the best on this list, many amazing deep dives into global south history and current events.

  • Auxiliary Statements—decent, lesser-known podcast on left theory

  • The East Is A Podcast—one of my favorites, taught me so much about orientalism, but is mostly paywalled now. Still has many, many great episodes in the catalogue.

  • Marx Madness—reading theory with comrades

  • Horror Vanguard—good left podcast about horror films

I listen to a lot of podcasts.

Fraad has little if anything positive to say about AES.

What's AES?

Also, is radio war nerd pay only?

AES refers to "actually existing socialism" and usually refers to countries that have communist parties in power, like China, Cuba, Laos, Vietnam, and the DPRK
