I’m ditching YouTube and cancelled my Premium account because they recently purged videos and accounts of Palestinian human rights organizations, and I’m generally trying to boycott the US and Google further.

I’m switching to podcasts to give myself something to listen to instead. I found CBC Podcasts and TVO Podcasts. I also found this Lemmy thread from 2 years ago, but I’d figure it’s time to ask the community again.

What are your suggestions for Canadian or non-US podcasts?

    Canadaland has some very good shows, in particular, openly gay animals. The Beaverton is quite good if you like political satire. The numbers, if you want to listen to some nerds talk about polls

        And ONpoli if in Ontario. Actually Steve Paikin does a separate one too. He had Avi Lewis on.

        yeah the last time I checked out one of their shows was maybe a couple years ago and I was pretty shocked at how bad it had gotten. I was a regular listener once upon a time, but no more.

            I’ll give it a go, sure :)

            If they still have the old seasons of Commons available, there’s some incredible work there by Arshy Mann (who now runs an outlet/podcast called The Hatchet which I really need to check out). The season called ‘Corruption’ is fantastic
