The following is a list of podcasts I listen to. I listen to all of these on Pocket Casts on my phone. You can just search them on your podcast app.
Most of them are in English but there are a few in Arabic, French, Spanish and Italian as well.
PS: I also have a podcast – The Fire These Times.
Criteria: anything I’ve found interesting. Some of these podcasts I’m a regular listener of, others I listen to occasionally and other still I’ve just listened to one episode or two and plan on listening to more in the near future. Needless to say, a podcast being listed does not mean it’s one I agree with, and I have not listed podcasts I found extremely problematic. So if it’s here it means that I’ve found some value in it regardless of whether I agree or not.
Here’s the list, in no particular order.

“The Podcast was born from both women wanting to share their thoughts and conversations to a broader audience using a more flexible medium than video. With YouTube, videos have to be short, concise and well-edited visually to catch (and keep) peoples’ attention.

The hosts were talking so much via voice note anyway, they figured they would have enough material! Both are incredibly excited to share their passions and perspectives with you all.” Hosted by Marine, known as “A Privileged Vegan”, and Mexie.

1619“In August of 1619, a ship carrying more than 20 enslaved Africans arrived in the English colony of Virginia. America was not yet America, but this was the moment it began.

On va essayer de ne pas systématiquement genrer la conversation pour rester le plus inclusives possibles. On va sans doute faire des maladresses… n’hésitez pas à nous en parler !”
