Binchtopia

I have been binging the entire podcast this summer and nothing had made me happier

As the title says!

I’ve been listening since 2021 and initially found their vague gestures to sociology, politics, psychology, etc interesting, but eventually it became clear that they are only comfortable/willing to discuss the systems of oppression that affect them directly as two white, educated, well-off cis women. If you fall into that category, you may enjoy and feel seen by this podcast, but otherwise you will feel deeply alienated as they devote multiple episodes to the crisis in Ukraine and antisemitism but fail to meaningfully attend to the systems of oppression they directly benefit from (anti-Blackness, genocides in P@lest!ne Sudan and the Congo, etc). I’m not certain what the point of their platform is anymore—if you want to hear meaningful and informed commentary, I would seek podcasts featuring actual experts/scholars on topics of interest rather than two people who do a few hours of googling before turning their mics on.
