My podcast feed is looking pretty light these days. Looking for recommendations, especially if they have a leftist bent.

I heavily second This Is Hell. It’s really good and there’s a million back episodes. Chuck is a great interviewer and radio host.

Any specific episodes you'd recommend?

I’d catch any of the recent Palestine ones (although they had someone who rejected the labeling of Israel as a settler-colony because “it confused the issue”) or browse any title that catches your interest.

Caveat: They have all kinds of guests from libs to Marxists which means they’ll occasionally have some weirdo who will mention totalitarian China / Soviet Union. There’s a German historian who hosts an occasional segment called The Past Inside The Present and it kinda sucks so I skip them.
