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?

    Suddenly realising most of my podcast lineup is US-based - but here are a few Canadian standouts:

    ‘Tech Won’t Save Us’ is a fantastic tech-critical podcast;

    ‘Theory & Philosophy’ is David Guignion, from Montreal(?), doing excellent and accessible explanations of a wide range of thinkers;

    ‘The Breach Show’ is journalists Desmond Cole and Martin Lukacs talking about Canadian politics from a left perspective.

    Edit: Oh, and Front Burner is a relatively listenable CBC politics podcast.
