Hello comrades!
What are y’all’s favorite communist podcasts? For me it’s the “The Punch Out” for quick news, “Unmasking Imperialism” for a latinx perspective on imperialism and socialism in Latin America and “The Socialist Program” for general news, theory and economics. I used to love Rev Left and still like it a lot but Breht (the host) is a full on Maoist now no matter how badly he tries to hide it sometimes lol.
I’m not really the biggest podcast person but Hakim, Yugopnik and Second Thought launched a one recently and I listened to two episodes, it’s a lot of fun. https://soundcloud.com/thedeprogram
I listened to a few episodes, and can confirm it’s a pretty solid podcast.
Just listened to one episode. Indeed lots of fun. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely! Highly recommend The Deprogram
I also don’t listen to podcasts too much, but I agree socialist program is great. Revleftradio is still good at least to learn about different struggles / tendencies. The Citationsneeded hosts might only be slightly left of socdems, but they still stand above 99% of left podcasts because of the amount of research and work they put into each episode.
ProbablyCancelled, eyesleft, and economic update with wolff are also pretty good.
Beyond what’s been mentioned, I like Nostalgia Trap (good guests, interesting historical and cultural analyses), and Eat The Rich provides consistently funny ragebait tales about capitalist individuals and corporations and their shitty exploits.
For me it’s hardcorehistory by Dan Carlin
this was also the first podcast I ever listened to
He’s pretty big on the great man of history way of looking at things, it’s a pretty non-materialist, non-dialectical podcast. He’s entertaining, and for ancient history, he can be worth listening to.
Yep, I particularly liked the Prophets of doom episodes. The Khans and Punic wars are also very good.
not “favorites” of mine, but here is ProleWiki’s “podcasts” category, some are obviously better than others, and also podcasts listed in this thread could be added to this category too https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Category:Podcasts

Proles of the Round Table has some interesting episodes (although it’s no longer being updated, AFAICT).
The Socialist Program is one of my favorites, and I don’t see it mentioned yet. It’s got a lot of contemporary political analysis using historical and dialectical materialism. I highly recommend it. Anyone know any other podcasts like this?
Grubstakers was good, I’m sad they’re no longer active
