I have finally let go of a once comfort podcast (hexbear.net)

I used to listen to a podcast called The Deprogram as a comfort podcast but as time went on its hosts seemed to run out of things to say on communism so they started to give their limited views on life as episodes without any serious education about Marxism's connection to things like marriage, disability, health, and love. In this their privilege as cis het able bodied men came forward but I kept holding on for nostalgia but I have I finally let go of it.

I don't listen to political podcasts anymore but I always thought that behind the bastards was great when it was about topics that aren't uh currently relevant to American imperialism I guess. The Scott Adams series is really great. I liked the episodes with Paul F Tompkins on rush limbaugh too

I'm at the same position with Lions Led By Donkeys, most of their episodes are fine but anything related to Russia/USSR brings out the hosts brainworms, and they can be too charitable towards modern Western militaries, but he's fine for historical topics
