I listen to podcasts during cardio workouts, lifts, and mindless droning at work. Finished every episode of "This is Revolution" from Zero Books and there is a lot of great discussion. However, I realized that I don't have many any other black leftist podcasts. I am a black dude and I am trying to get more black thought so I can convince my family members and peers that leftist stuff isnt "a white people thing". I listen "Black Agenda Report" (which sometimes has terrible audio mixing which can be annoying) and tried "Champagne Sharks" and "Drop Squad" but that wasn't my jam (a little too Twitter-centric for me a person not on and not interested in Twitter discourse/politics).

Do you have any suggestions?

    Aaron Thorpe had a short-lived podcast called A Time of Monsters. It's been dead ever since he joined The Trillbillies, but there are a few good episodes in there. For better or worse, Thorpe comes from the same cultural milieu as most of the "dirtbag left" though.

    Since people are also plugging books, I'm going to plug, Development Arrested: The Blues and Plantation Power in the Mississippi Delta by Clyde Woods.
