Thoughtful, unpretentious, analysis of real world and internet culture

☆

“Never Post is honestly a breath of fresh air. They analyze the intersections of internet and “real life” culture in a way that is profoundly thoughtful, but not pretentious. They also do a fantastic job of making the content understandable when a concept or terminology might be new to you. As far as pacing and tone, it actually reminds me a lot of Mr. Rogers. It’s really calm and deliberate. They also maintain a consistent speed, so if you listen to your podcasts sped up there aren’t random sections that become too fast because the host started speaking quickly. Plus it has a really broad and diverse set of hosts. The content is consistently high quality and brings in many voices without feeling disjointed. It may be a new podcast… but I’ve followed several of the hosts for years and Never Post hits the high bars they’ve set on mediums like YouTube. I have one final thought to add- Cultural and media literacy are so important, but critical thinking seems rarer and rarer by the day. It’s kind of strange to say… but the Never Post hosts are essentially professional thinkers. And they lead by example, which subtly encourages you to think more critically in the world. Listening to their thoughtful insights often makes me think about other things in different ways- sort of like how hanging out musicians might change the way you think about music. Oh and it’s independently produced! A+”
