I've been listening to a lot of YKS, Guys and Boonta Vista recently and I think they are hilarious. I used to listen to Beep Beep Lettuce a lot and I find that nowadays they're not as funny as they used to be a year or two ago.

I want more funny and stupid shit to listen to, and although Chapo and Trashfuture do make me laugh from time to time, they're not very consistently funny.

I'm looking for funny, silly shit, preferably from comrades. I've already got plenty of political content that I often listen to, so right now I'm just looking for stupid laughs. Any suggestions?

Episode 1 (or E1) is a silly, absurd improv comedy podcast, where (almost) every episode is the first episode of a failed podcast. The podcast is definitely adjacent to the left-wing podcast space, with plenty of cross-overs between Chapo, Pod About List and others. I wouldn't call it explicitly left wing, although you definitely have pro-labor episodes like the "Amazon Fulfillment Center Ambassadorcast" and anti-cop episodes like "Two Weeks Paid Leave."

You can start basically anywhere. My favorite episodes are "The CostCo Town Hall with Joe Biden", "Crown of Mist: The Final Day of Princess Diana" and "Uncle's Houseboat."
