I’m about halfway done with the last season of the Revolutions podcast and up to date with Blowback. I’m probably going to be looking for another fun history podcast to listen to soon to throw into my rotation with The Dollop, to break up the pop culture, comedy, or news podcasts.
I recently listened to the Kissinger episodes of Behind the Bastards and they seemed pretty informative and funny. Also apparently it’s by some old Cracked people, and I’m a fan of all those old Cracked content creators. But the first episode says it’s about Stalin, so I’m guessing it’s like in the progressive but lib direction? I don’t mind, just want peoples thoughts on it before I decide to start or look for something else. How is it for people who have listened to it?
I know the host is a progressive but yeah definitely lib. I’m curious if it gets better. I only listened to one episode before covid but they said something so amazingly lib & NED-approved & uneducated which, after waiting to make sure it didnt seem like a bit they were doing, I turned it off and never returned.
He does not get better. Genuinely, ‘apolitical’ QAnonAnonymous are more radical, and they are literally tied in with high level mainstream journalists.
Maybe I’ll do what someone else implied and just listen to episodes about Bastards in the Imperial core that I want to know about, rather than going from beginning to end like I would for other non-news podcasts I start. I basically already started doing that with the Kissinger episodes.
