It feels like every time I find a podcast about security/networking/technology the hosts end up saying some pretty off-color stuff, or I look them up and they also host right wing podcasts. Are there any that are more leftist, hosted by LGBT peeps, or at least not actively bigoted ?

Odd. I have never found a tech podcast that is right wing. All of them i have ever heard are done by lefties

Same, I would actually be curious to listen to a right wing tech podcast as the two concepts clash so hard in my brain.

I don’t listen to tech podcasts at all, but now that you mention it, the concept seems odd to me, too. Tech involves objective facts, scientific reasoning, and logic, which are three things I definitely don’t associate with modern conservatism.

Maybe the making of tech is, but its application and relevance in modern society is, at the end of the day, a sociological phenomenon.

Ooh, I didn’t consider that. Good point!
