Actually, nevermind, that would be too good of an ad transition.

+1 for Behind the Bastards. Robert Evans might be one of the few leftists around these days that I can tolerate to listen to for more than 5 minutes.

I tried it but wound up feeling the same way I do about the many nazi shows they used to play on History channel. I understand we should be wary of the villains of our past, but devoting hours of time laughing and talking about them seems disingenuous to the many many others who suffered from their actions.

I’m a big fan of No Such Thing as a Fish.

It’s a bunch of researchers for a funny British panel show (QI) talking about their favorite fact they’ve discovered that week.

My three favorite podcasts gotta be,

  1. Behind the Bastards - They basically pick a “bastard” from history talk about them.
  2. Dan Carlin’s Hardcore History - Explainers about interesting (and often, grim) historical events in great detail.
  3. A Podcast of Unnecessary Detail - Three fellow nerds talk about nerd stuff.

I wish Behind The Bastards would be in another format. Just can’t stand that style of podcasting

I honestly really like it. Their casual humor brings balance to the otherwise dark content of the podcast.

Yeah, they talk about some FUCKED UP stuff on there. I’m glad Robert, Sophie, and guest(s) can joke a bit about things between some of the atrocities.

The Dollap - comedic American history podcast

Behind the Bastards - Robert Evans’ exposes some real rotten people with guests

Bill Burr - I just really like his weekly podcast even though I have no interest in sports

Knowledge Fight - this has been a hilarious/scary journey of 2 dudes reviewing Alex Jones Infowars since 2016

Love Bill Burr - his podcast is the reason I got into listening and enjoying podcasts back in the day!

If you’re someone who likes these you’ll probably like This Past Weekend with Theo Von. He’s usually got really good guests, and his energy is different than his stand up. I’ve really enjoyed listening.

I never see this mentioned but Darknet Diaries is actually a really informative and entertaining podcast about hacking, the dark web, physical penetration testing (gone wrong), nation-state cyber attacks.

Yeah, I know little of IT (as I’m a mech engineer, in construction) but find the story telling to be so good it’s one of my favorite podcasts.
