Posted November 13, 2024Nov 13 Hello. I’m always looking for new podcasts to listen to while driving for work. I recently started listening to The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart. I like the way that he has reapected experts on, often with conflicting viewpoints/opinions, and discussed a specific topic in great detail on each episode. I’m enjoying it quite a bit as he and his guests give a lot of historical references and context to the discussions beyond just what is happening today, although I recognize that Stewart is left leaning and the discussion generally takes that slant despite their efforts to have voices from the right in the conversation. Does anyone have a good neutral or right leaning podcast you can recommend? I’m really making an effort to steer away from the surgical coverage and scare tactics thrown around by mainstream media to get a better understanding of the details of political policy.
November 13, 2024Nov 13 I like Freakonomics. https://freakonomics.com/ It uses data-driven points to describe why people and systems work the way they do. They occasionally dabble into politics, like they did some recent episodes regarding the election, but mostly avoids it. So I say it's somewhere in the middle.
