I never listened to a single second of Chapo or any other popular podcast or vlog that are usually mentioned here.
I heard one episode of TrueAnon when they had on Bevins and couldn't stand the cast and their jokes the entire time so I never listened again. I also don't like Sam Seder, he seems annoying and pretentious to me, so I don't like to watch any of his shows or clips that are posted here. His co-host seems cool but it seems like he doesn't let her speak much and has her there as an afterthought, looking cute.
But I listen to A People's History of Ideas Podcast, which I think is really great and I love it and I really recommend it! I've listened to a few episodes of Working Class History on the Italian Resistance and really enjoyed those too, plan on listening to other episodes at some point.
I'm cool with the more serious, history lecture-style podcasts but don't really like the dirtbag Leftist "everyone-is-a-comedian" ones or the News-styled ones.
