This is a thread about Podcasts. What do you listen to if you do.
I listen to Radio National quite a bit but haven’t in quite a while
My oldest is in to true crime some of which I’ve listened to via “This American Life” She’s now listening to Harry O’Brien’s sister’s story & what she & the family have been through via an abusive father / step-father. It goes a long way to help understand in part the influences on Heretier.

Nah, leave it alone to live or die on it's own, no need to merge it.
I don't do podcasts and I really don't understand them. I much prefer to read info than have someone speaking it to me, if I want to listen to the radio I stream it. _________________ In my defence, I was left unsupervised |

I've been listening to "Red Scare" lately, which is either a left-wing or alt-right (?) comedy podcast hosted by two laconic Russian-American women basically taking the piss out of everyone and everything. It's definitely not for everyone and honestly I'm not even sure I like it half the time, but give it a listen and see what you think.

They also did a (more serious) interview with Steve Bannon a few weeks ago, which was genuinely fascinating:

Wouldn't even know how to listen to a podcast, or where to go to find one.
Even if I did I doubt I would - agree with Stui, I prefer to see the words on paper or watch someone talking. Same reason I wouldn't listen to an audible book, I'll read it but won't listen to it. I guarantee I'd be daydreaming about something completely irrelevant within 5 minutes. |

The latest one I've been getting into is "TrueAnon", hosted by Brace Belden and Liz Franczak, which (somewhat humorously) digs into the mysteries surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death, and broader political / conspiracy theory stuff. You can listen to the first episode here: https://soundcloud.com/trueanonpod/the-ep-files _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

Listened to Background Briefing yesterday morning about a terrible Federal court Judge which raised the important question of how to deal with Judges who are so bad they are dangerous. Indeed what can be done about unfair decisions?
