I used to listen to long form essays on Youtube. My favourite ones either break down the history of a conspiracy, teach me something new and cool about the world, or explore a hobby I’ve never been interested in.

I don’t like the ones about killers or heavy drama. I also don’t like podcasts that spend half the time reading the latest news from [topic] in verbatim .

What are some podcasts you can recommend me while I chip away at other things?

    Blowback. Very, very good podcast on western imperialism.

        It’s definitely free to listen, if that’s what you mean. I listen to it on Apple Podcasts without paying a penny.

            You can pay for early access and I think some bonus content but otherwise it’s free.
