I started listening to podcasts again recently, and was really surprised to realize how much was just bad propaganda breathlessly cheerleading the state talking points. It became clear to me that I was better off without them.
In the case of what I'm talking about, it's a lot of market podcasts and the like, and there's a really simple metric: will listening to them give me useful insights into what either the economy or the markets will do, or will they make predictions that are wrong?
Not a podcast though similar to one, Maverick of Wall Street on YouTube has been a great example where the information on the show correctly predicts and explains things that are going on beyond just reading the headline numbers or what policymakers claim they're trying to to do.
