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

  • Red Game Table - leftist Lovecraftian ttrpg I think it's on hiatus? But the back episodes are pretty dope.
  • Shrieking Shack - critical review of the Harry Potter series from former fans. The interactions between the two hosts are lovely. Only recently got onto this one after someone from c/traaa reccod it I think

(Seconding Boonta, Horror Vanguard and Work Stoppage. Boonta is cosy comedy and HV is unapologetic theatre kid/postgrad playfulness. I don't even really watch horror as a genre)

that was almost certainly me!

the fun thing about the shriekcast is the hosts start the show hating jkr and knowing she's a terf, and then she just keeps going down the rabbit hole at the same time that the books are getting worse, so they'll have a segment where they talk about the nightmarish transphobia she's peddling right before viciously ripping into a bad chapter

Tysm great recco. The dramatic irony of knowing how bad it gets with jkr adds another layer, for sure.
