Culture podcasts are presented in the form of conferences, interviews, and lectures. Learn today's culture through in-depth overviews and topics that look into the most profound mysteries of society.
Society and cultures are genuinely diverse. Culture includes everything humanity has learned over time and continues with its evolution. This is explained in podcasts like Stuff You Should Know, which verses on incredibly diverse topics such as the history of various brands, religion, or the Chaos Theory.
Revisionist History focuses on the events that were once relevant but are forgotten today. As culture involves all human activities, Revisionist History and other podcasts discuss old-school ideas from today's perspective.
Also, you may find the most popular society and culture podcasts like This American Life declared by the American Journalism Review as a journalistic revolution. This is because they do an entertaining kind of journalism with real people and their funny moments and exciting ideas.
Society is also full of death, hatred, and crime. Some society podcasts include content about cannibalism, rape, and the most disgusting things. Shows like Sword and Scale portray the worst part of human nature. Behind the Bastards is similar but looks more into the actions of extremist groups.
There are shows for the audience that wants to have fun. In this section, you find podcasters that talk about their personal life. But, of course, they will leave you a lesson in the end. Distractible is an excellent example of a podcast about fun personal stories. These podcasts are great for learning quickly in your free time.
Do you find all this interesting? These Society and Culture podcasts will definitely hook you.
