Podcast Recommendations?

submitted by [deleted] from self.AskSaidIt

Hello~

I'm looking for something to listen to while I play video games. I'm mostly interested in conspiracy and high strangeness-type stuff. Anything that's censored or obfuscated. Controversial is good.

I'm not fond of the Abrahamic religions, so nothing promoting that, please.

Trying to get exposed to new ways of thinking. Shake off the brain dust.

Thanks!

Unwelcome Guests is great. It isn't being produced anymore but the newer ones with Robin are still relevant. That's the most recent few hundred episodes. (I'm not sure when exactly he started.)

Another one is The Higher Side Chats, I think that's up your alley as well.

Also, why use a throwaway account? You don't have to hide this interest from us. This isn't Reddit.

The Higher Side Chats is definitely what I was looking for, thanks! I'll check out Unwelcome Guests, too.

I'm normally a lurker, so I created a throwaway account just to ask this question. I don't plan on sticking around.

Or you do but just won't be talking.

A2 milk is hard to buy

What?

She's just acting clever.

If you have not yet listened to Ghost Stories for the End of the World it's a great one. I'd not quite call it a conspiracy pod; it's about deep politics and its horrors; that is, shit that really happened. To use a cliche, it has a healthy dose of red pills. Start with episode 1, about the Dutroux affair and go from there. If you thought the Epstein case was interesting, you'll like this.

Very, very interesting. Thanks!

Multitasking is death. If you're that sick of the game, then stop playing it.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (5 children)

I have trouble concentrating when my hands aren't doing something. The game keeps my body busy while my mind wanders.

I probably have some kind of undiagnosed attention deficit disorder. I don't know.

Do you have any podcasts to recommend?

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 4 fun4 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 4 fun -  (4 children)

corbett report is excellent, I second that one. All of the Kanye/Ye interviews are pretty epic too. A few Joe Rogan episodes are good.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I'll definitely check out the Corbett Report, then.

Are the Kanye interviews with Alex Jones? I've seen clips of that, or are there others?

I've tried listening to Joe Rogan, but his guests are too varied. I never know if I'm going to get something cool or just sports talk. Any specific episodes?

I agree about Rogan. These two farming ones are epic imo:

I'll give those a listen, thanks!

Any joe rogan with eddie bravo on it usually spirals down many conspiracy paths

[–]jet199 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

The Disaffected podcast about cluster b personality disorders and how they infest modern politics.

I like The Rest is History podcast. It's not controversial, but they are cramed full of random details you don't get elsewhere.

Corbett Report http://www.corbettreport.com
On rockfin many different podcasts: https://www.rokfin.com/

I've never heard of Rokfin before, I'll check it out. Thanks!

The skeptics guide to the universe, often deals with conspiracy type stuff.

As does Skeptics with a K.

Common Descent isn't conspiracy based, but it's palaeontology based, and sometimes that gets highly weird. Will and Dave are very easy to listen to.

Added to my list, thanks!

He seems like a cool dude, thanks!

He very high level but he tends towards solipsism, so watch out for that. :D

Not a podcast, exactly, but if you want to hear a really great album, download The Grateful Dead's "American Beauty". If you like folk, bluegrass, classic country, etc., it's a good listen.

I don't listen to much music. Most of it irritates me for some reason.

I'll look it up on YouTube and give it a chance, though.

[–]grassfed 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (9 children)

A2 milk or A1 milk?

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (8 children)

I have no idea what this means?

[–]Airbus320 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (7 children)

I am trying to buy A2 milk but only asian cows produces it

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (1 child)

just self identify as an asian cow, and then I'm sure you know how to milk...

[–]grassfed 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Mm

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

I don't know anything about that.

Did you mean to reply to me? And why are two different users talking about milk?

[–]superbug 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

We are puppets

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

Well, that's vaguely terrifying.

Good luck with your milk situation, buddy.

[–]tiny-brown-mug 1 insightful - 4 fun1 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

Ha! You should definitely stay. :D

A1 gives cancer

I enjoy the Lore podcast, it's basically folklore and ghost stories.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I used to listen to Lore a long time ago, but the ads became too disruptive. I'll give it another chance, though. Thanks!
