I’m looking to stock up on podcasts, whether in Mandarin, French or English. Don’t worry about my tastes I’ll sort it out later

But share good podcasts in other languages ​​if you know any (it might be useful for other people)

    Lions Led By Donkeys! Weird and usually stupid military history, featuring everything from Roman warfare up to Vietnam.

    I’ll also toss in Well There’s Your Problem. It’s an engineering disasters podcast. With slides (if you’re watching on YouTube).

    • The Bugle (satire about the news)
    • The Deprogram (far left politics, very funny hosts)
    • Blowback (documentary style show about US interventions in different places - more interesting than it sounds)
    • Radiolab (sciencey stuff)

    Bigfeets.

    It’s a watch along podcast for quite possibly the lowest depths of US reality TV, Mountain Monsters.

    Their other podcast The Dogg Zzone 9000 is at least as funny, though it is dependent upon which cursed media artifact from the wrong dimension which they’re reviewing.

    In no particular order, I listen to all of them regularly:

    • Omnibus - general obscure history hosted by indie rocker John Roderick and Jeopardy’s golden boy Ken Jennings

    • The Dollop - (mostly) American history with a leftist bent. One comedian reads a story the other hasn’t heard before.

    • Not Another D&D Podcast - apologies for the first episode, but great world- and character-building. Really shows how great cooperative storytelling can be

    • Last Podcast on the Left - comedy/horror. Conspiracies, cults, UFOs, and other weird shit. Their historical deep dives are awesome.

    I listen to these regularly, but there’s a limited series podcast I like to recommend called S-Town. It’s excellent, especially if you’re from the southern US or grew up in a rural area. If you aren’t from the south or a rural area, it’ll probably be an extra-wild ride!

      Love NADDPOD, and yeah once you get past the rocky start (they talk about dragon pussy within the first 10 minutes) it’s a creative and hilarious actual play with some very emotional moments. I cried at several points during campaign 1.

        It got surprisingly heavy in places, and I didn’t realize I had grown so attached to some of those characters!

        Campaign 2 was great—I really loved the guest star and secondary plot, and I’m now on C3. Have been binging the hell out of it for the past 6 months or so
