I do listen to the Rest is History selectively but I abhor the Rest is Politics tbh. Listened to it once and wouldn't touch it again with a bargepole. But given I'm not a particular fan of either Rory Stewart of Alistair Campbell, whose political competence are sketchy at best in my book, this is perhaps no surprise. 

My more regular listens are Political Theory 101, The Political Theory Review, The Rachman Review, Wisdom of Crowds and Steve Bloomers Washing.

Rest Is History

The Move (Lance Armstrong)

Used to listen to Fast Talk 

Rest is Politics though Alastair Campbell isn't my cup of tea

Various football ones - some Derby some not.  I listen to The Overlap and Stick to Football and sometimes radio 5 shows like Monday Night Social as podcasts

Real Dictators 

Various random ones on politics, world affairs

Pretty much anything with Frankie Boyle

Every episode usually: 

Football guardian weekly. 

Rest is politics.

listen to a lot of the news agents even if the hosts get on my nerves a bit - still think they’re good at giving guests a hard ride in interviews. 

 

If I’m on a flight or doing a big job around the house:

Undr the cosh 

 

Used to religiously listen to the ramble every episode but I’ve really fallen out with it. Can’t put my finger on it but just don’t enjoy it anymore.

The Coming Storm on BBC Sounds. 

Season one was about QAnon, Trump and the Clintons. I've gone back to that after catching up on the new season because I never listened. It's frightening.

The new season is right up to date with conspiracy theory assclownery. I knew some of these lot were mental, but not how mental.  

If Trump loses narrowly they could be at war.

There's new AI software from Google called NotebookLM that allows you to create your own podcast about anything. It's pretty mindblowing. Just give it some text and you'll get two voices, one male one female, doing a deep dive into it:

If anyone's interested in hearing a meta podcast of AI discussing AI, here's one I made earlier. The thing is this sort of technology doesn't stand still. It's amazing already, and will only get better.
