Looking for good left-wing political podcasts (piefed.ca)

Hey all,

Recently had the latest episode of The Breach Show appear on my Fedi feed. Decided to play it, and it was a great listen to supplement other things I was doing.

I was hoping to find more left-wing Canadian political podcasts. My issue with a lot of Canadian political content is either that it's too American-centred (Rational National is great but comes to mind as an example), or has important information, but is, to me, unexciting and boring to listen to (The Breakdown Alberta unfortunately comes to mind here).

I'm looking for stuff that's informative, Canada-centred, and entertaining to listen to. If anybody knows of stuff that fits the bill, feel free to let me know.

It may be difficult to meet all your criteria, but worth browsing some of these:

!podcasts@slrpnk.net has some good ones :)

I'd recommend Behind The Bastards, which is hosted by an anarchist.

Not Canada centered, but Blowback is a great podcast for a detailed account of US foreign policy, such as Iraq, Cuba, Afghanistan, Korea, and Cambodia. Created by 2 journalists, every season has sources. Can be found anywhere you get podcasts
