The Homelab show. Hosted by the owner of Lawrence Systems Canadian managed services firm along with another guy who I can't remember. Very cool podcast for people who like to tinker with servers at home, or in the cloud.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Maybe not what you're looking for, but Security Now! seems to fit that bill. TWiT has a bunch of other shows as well, covering a range of topics. I can honestly say I've never encountered any bigoted hosts or guests on the shows I've listened to.

The Mozilla Foundation did a tech podcast called IRL. It hasn't updated in nearly a year, and I don't know if it's ever coming back, but some of their back episodes are worth listening to.
Are you telling me that Malicious Life and The Darknet Diaries are right-wing? Admittedly, I haven't listened to either in quite a while, so something might have been said since.
Both are solid podcasts and I’ve never heard an ounce of leaning politically from either.
Darknet Diaries is great, I think I got a little turned off by how the host and a guest were talking about camgirls on an episode. Like it was framed as the patrons deserved privacy and protection, but not the sex workers. I haven't listened to the other one but I'll give it a try!
There Are No Girls On The Internet is fantastic.
Thank you!! I also found 2 girls one podcast, it's a lot of internet culture stuff and they have an episode about Lemmy

Hanselminutes by Scott Hanselman. Covers a variety of tech topics. He's kinda like the Mr. Rodgers of programming and tech podcasts.
I felt the same way about different privacy/security forums after a bit. Every time I checked the off topic forums I was seeing highly political, often extreme content, mixed with slurs that would made me blush...and I grew up around racist fishermen and homophobic truckers.
I think a lot of American privacy/security folks start with realizing the US government isn’t about privacy, so they want smaller government, but the only party pushing for smaller government pushes bigoted views to so the privacy folks get sucked into that mental space… not condoning them at all but I think this situation is the result of two-party government. I’m in security sector, but I do research and so there are a lot more left-leaning people around me. Sorry I don’t know any podcasts to recommend though.
It’s a niche, rather than general technology, but the Internet of Things Podcast - Stacey on IoT is always professional. It’s hosted by Stacey Higginbothem and it’s refreshing to have womens perspective in a heavily male dominated industry.
I think techwontsave.us is want you didn't know you want, but maybe you'll enjoy it. It has some really interesting guests and topics.
If you're a web dev who fuckin' loves JavaScript, Syntax is a good answer. I don't think Wes Bos or Scott Tolinski are shitbags.
Their podcast is always supper informative and fun. Very positive people that are nice to listen to. I often put that on when walking to the grocery store or going on quick drives

MKBHD has a good podcast called the Waveform Podcast. It doesn’t go super deep into the tech but its good. I like to watch the video podcast on youtube while i eat

Weird how people like you can't hear an opinion if the person speaking isn't gay.

I like the late night Linux shows. And hackaday.
If you liked/tried Reply All I highly recommend Underunderstood (plus Overunderstood if you join their Patreon, it's a big catalog). That being said it's more tech in culture than heavy/deep tech (they're journalists, not developers/hackers)
I don't think Darknet Diaries falls into this boat either...? The host may be libertarian or something but it's not really relevant to the content since it's mostly narrative-driven interviews or stories
Here are a few I listen to that stick to the topic of their shows. I don't listen to podcasts that aren't political by nature to hear politics.
- The Privacy, Security, & OSINT Show
- Firewalls Don't Stop Dragons
- Linux + Open Source News, by TLE
- Surveillance Report
- Darknet Diaries
How is your Swiss German? I quite like SRF Digital, but it's likely completely incomprehensible.
