My podcast feed is looking pretty light these days. Looking for recommendations, especially if they have a leftist bent.

Biology focused theory podcast sounded cool and then I saw the episode title “The Incompetent Authoritarianism of Vladimir Lenin” joker-gaming

The host grew up in a cult, being sceptical of charismatic people is natural. Iirc that episode in particular is much more about online leftism and how it glorifies the past rather than like ... actually doing things or thinking about the future in a way that isn't just larping their preferred 20th century ideology.
