Does anyone have any #podcast recommendations that are made by POC? I’ve recently been hit in the face by how most, if not all, of the podcasts I listen to are by an entirely or predominantly white team, and I really need to change that.
So if anyone has any to introduce me to, especially fiction podcasts, I’d really appreciate it
@rynras
Just curious, why do you need to change the podcasts you listen to based on the color of the skin of the team?
Startalk has Neil deGrasse Tyson as host, and it's a pretty nice one if you like scientific podcasts (except for when they start shittalking and forget to properly tackle the main topic, but can't have it all =D ). It's not fiction I'm afraid.
I wouldn't know the ethnicity of who's running the podcasts I listen though, never really payed attention to it
I see.
I think he is still useful now, I know people who are getting more interested into scientific matters, or that really digged the Cosmos episode on climate change and understood more about it thanks to him.
If for you talking favorably of science (in your words evangelizing of scientism) is something that is not compatible with being useful, I guess he is not so by your definition.

Sorry I really cant remember what episode or what subject, it was a few years back (I'd guess 2-5).
Did find some stuff interesting.
@dazinism no worries, I found some nice stuff and bad stuff in there, mostly it was the only one that popped into my mind with a POC =D
