I had to stop listening to the Deprogram and Chapo for the same reasons. Chapo is especially ableist.

Though I used to use those as 'comfort' podcasts too, if I'm listening to a podcast I usually want to hear some political analysis. So, in that case, as far as politics and theory heavy podcasts go, here is the list of podcasts that my community education group put together for people to check out.

PODCASTS

• THE ELECTRONIC INTIFADA PODCAST
  • The Electronic Intifada is an independent online news publication and educational resource focusing on Palestine, its people, politics, culture and place in the world.
  • The Electronic Intifada has a highly recommended and informative podcast hosted on YouTube that creates regular videos/podcasts that cover aspects and stories of Palestine and Palestinians from perspectives not covered anywhere else. Topics include art and poetry, international politics, activism, history, weekly battlefield reports with information and footage gained directly from National Liberation Fighters actively resisting against the zionist entity, and more.
• THE RED NATION PODCAST
  • The Red Nation Podcast features discussions on Indigenous history, politics, and culture from a left perspective. Hosted by Nick Estes and Jen Marley with help from our friend and comrade Sina. The Red Nation Podcast is also the home of Red Power Hour, hosted by Melanie Yazzie and Elena Ortiz.

• REV LEFT RADIO
  • An online audio format project/podcast that covers a wide swathe of topics from contemporary news, dialectical philosophy, proletarian history, and revolutionary politics.
  • Rev Left Radio is one of the most principled yet completely down to earth and understandable Marxist-Leninist podcast out there. In addition to covering news, theory, and politics, they also delve into other topics such as Buddhism, spirituality, culture, etc. and their intersection with Marxism. This is also a personal favorite.
