Crash Course Pods: The Universe

Over the course of eleven episodes, learn about the Universe including how it began, what it’s made of, and where it’s all headed. John Green and Dr. Katie Mack make it all very approachable and easy to digest while still teaching you a ton of complex things about the physics of everything.

Dear hank and john

Grew up with Crash Course and John Green books and of course when I found out they have a podcast I have not stopped listening to it! Brilliant, funny, informative everything I love. Makes me introspective in a way that's different and more positive from how I usually am.

so many

sorry most of these are history podcasts bc that’s mostly what i listen to but there’s a range of topics last week tonight with john oliver (youtube) - he recaps the last week or a specific topic in a very understandable funny yet educational way
conflicted: a history podcast - for something a bit more serious in tone - its deep dives into different events in history especially those that don’t get much attention
book club (bbc) - discussions of books with the authors and a group of readers - so many episodes going back years to choose from
slow burn - season long deep dives into events like the clinton impeachment, lead up to the iraq war, rise of clarence thomas
anthropocene reviewed - has a more hopeful tone - john green reviewing and explaining different aspects of the world like orbital sunrises
contrapoints (youtube) - tackles different topics from a lot philosohical cultural sociological perspective - love the video on twilight us & them - talks about decisive problems in the us from both sides my fav episode is the gun divide
colorless wonderland (youtube) - my fav book channel hes so enthusiastic and has such unique book recs
the morbid zoo (youtube) - deep dives into horror and thriller movies from sociological cultural perspective - she’s so smart and and well read my fav videos are on civil war and sound of freedom
nice try! - exploration of design and its interactions with people history government and more - highly recommend the episode about chandigarh or germania
radio lab - tackles interesting questions that combine law science history sociology - my fav episodes are playing god and eye in the sky
the audio long read - podcast form of long stories from the guardian on a bunch of different topics
more: - throughline - philosophy tube - 99% invisible - the experiment - longform - what roman mars can learn about con law - codeswitch - in our time - audacious with chion wolf - story corps - the daily - ologies

everything is a learnable skill

This piece of art by demii whiffin introduced me to the phrase that got me through a time of incredibly deep self-doubt. Maybe u need it too?

bit therapy

A free app that gives you a desktop pet!! I’ve had it on my mac for a couple of years and it’s so cute, like the windows 95 desktop sheep. U can move ur pets around and hide them whenever u want. It‘s a small app so I messaged the developer once to say how much I liked it and he was super nice:)
