I’m interested in different perspectives so I’d like to avoid USA, GB etc.
Does the podcast still have to be in English? And what topics are you usually interested in?
Thanks for asking. The podcast would need to be in English, yes. I’m actually open to all topics except Anglo culture and politics. So, anything from Europe, Africa, Asia, Baltics etc.
Topics could be art, environment / nature, culture, sustainability, mythology, degrowth, decolonisation, cooperative businesses, music and entertainment, local news, books and literature, languages (explored through English), local community and climate.
But you wouldn’t understand most of the local languages though, I could link you some out of different countries in Africa and you wouldn’t understand anything

Go raibh maith agat as sin. Chláraigh mé do “comm” freisin, is breá liom é.
If you are interested in different culture more than different language background, https://www.rnz.co.nz/programmes/black-sheep might be interesting
Thank you. 🙏 That is actually right up my alley, although I prefer to hear from the indigenous perspective for now. NZ people of settler lineage are generally the same group I’m trying to avoid (including my own native Irish people who speak English as a first language). I will come back to it though so thanks again.
Yeah, I understand - fwiw, RNZ is the national (government backed) broadcaster, and has an explicit mandate to elevate the perspectives of iwi. Black Sheep specifically has done a few episodes about the musket wars and land confiscation that really don’t pull punches.
Another that might fit your brief: https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/stuff-the-british-stole - from the ABC, and for the most part does a really good job of setting up the story with some historical context, then letting the people actually effected tell the rest
I’d like to listen if you don’t mind sharing some links or search terms.
That’s exactly the issue, yes. Also there’s the converging monoculture of English speakers, including my own country, Ireland. So even though English podcasts span a huge array of topics I still feel like I’m listening to the same mindset.
