Joshua Citerella is an artist who studies online communities, he does a lot of podcasts and streaming on his own which I haven’t checked out yet. Have heard this guy as a guest on other podcasts I have listened to and really enjoyed him on it but this is some high level stuff.

I’m a fan of Citarella’s work which explores online subcultures. His show Doomscroll is adjacent to this research and features a range of guests incl. Brace Belden, Quinn Slobodian, Trevor Paglen and lots more. Episodes have a range of tone but always excellent interviews and compelling info

he's had a podcast for a while, but it got youtube-ified not too long ago. he gets an interesting array of guests from different corners of the political spectrum and i've quite enjoyed.

if you're tired of the fart-huffers that usually pass for "public intellectuals" in american discourse, doomscroll podcast (and all of joshua citarella's work) is probably the breath of fresh air you've been looking for. it certainly is for me
each episode centers around an interview with someone who's in some way at the crossroads of politics and the internet, and the range of guests he's got on is immense - established academics, random internet weirdos, the guy from The 1975 - but he's always able to ground their conversation in the larger context of the modern age. it genuinely feels like a piece of media for our time, instead of engaging in the infantile 60s counter-culture cosplay that a lot of these projects tend to fall into. can't recommend enough

Its a web app that people submit 1 song per week and then everyone gets to vote on the all the different songs but their own. After all the rounds have been completed, the person with the most votes wins! Its a fun way to share music with people and get competitive. Been using this app with other online communities and friends for a few months and have really been enjoying it.
NOTE: I created a PI.FYI League where the first submission is this friday. I limited it to 25 people for now not sure if I should open that up to more but it would be pretty overwhelming to have more than 25 songs to listen and vote on. The join link is attached to this rec!
