Top 25 Activism Podcasts

Welcome to the Hey Change Podcast, a place where we grapple with the wisdom of uncertainty and choose inner development as a tool for radical change. I dive deep into topics like behavioral psychology, neuroscience, the practice of visualization, spiritual up-leveling, climate optimism, and much more. Whether it's with a guest or in reflections of my own, we're all for keeping an open-minded and empowering approach to change.

Because - as has always been the case - the future is still unwritten and we create our tomorrow today!

Getting to know ourselves is one of the most challenging—and worthwhile—parts of being a person. Hungry Hearts features our favorite conversations from the Together Live tour, a traveling event that brings diverse womxn storytellers together in cities across the country for an epic evening of laughter, music and hard-won wisdom. Hosted by Amena Brown, you’ll hear from writers, activists, athletes and artists who share how their most vulnerable moments of fear, loss, heartbreak and uncertainty pointed them towards purpose and community. Their words will make you reflect, laugh, question the status quo...and remember that we’re all in this together.

A less-than-inspiring exploration of disability from someone who is actually disabled. Heavy on the sarcasm, Bad Attitudes explores the reality of being disabled, how non-disabled people can become better advocates and allies, disability representation in pop culture, and the ways in which disability permeates society. Young or sensitive ears beware. N (always) SFW.

This Podcast is the result of ten years of arts criticism in the legendary -South American blog loveartnotpeople.org that, since 2012, shocked and changed the perception of art and, more specifically, of their cultural elites and their exclusionary practices. But now, I want to elevate blogging to artistic status and also to refer to my reality in the UK and its critical present. Intellectual, artists and academics will pass by this space only to reinforce our commitment to freedom of speech at a time identity politics is weaponised to censor and silence. Entirely in English, it will take decolonial and queer methodologies to their logic extremes..

In this interview series sponsored by Post Carbon Institute, Vicki Robin, activist and best-selling author on sustainable living, talks with provocative thought leaders about emerging possibilities and ways humanity might step onto a better, post-pandemic path.

Welcome to The Vanity Project, hosted by Drag queen Vanity von Glow. This series will showcase engaging discussions between a drag queen and unlikely guests from the worlds of entertainment, media and politics. It will juxtapose the laughs we all know and expect from a drag queen, with more thoughtful, engaging discussions and insight.

A reigning queen of Soho, Vanity is one of the UK's most recognisable cabaret stars, famed for her lively shows at the piano. Being a creative of the nightlife, Vanity is also an advocate for personal freedom, free speech, and radical tolerance. She has caused a stir with appearances on panel discussions for the BBC, Sky News, Byline TV and more. VVG believes in tackling ideas rather than people, and prides herself on taking time to consider all points of view. Guests at The Vanity Project will be encouraged to relax, be themselves and express their truth.

The Vanity Project began life in front of a live audience in Covent Garden's glamorous hClub in 2018 featuring guests such as satirist Jonathan Pie, journalist Dan Wooton, and black community activist and performer Sadie Sinner. Now Vanity is exchanging the live audience for the intimacy of a podcast. Performers are known for being talkers, but this queen is also a great listener. In a cultural moment where it feels like everyone is shouting at one another, we offer you a classic innuendo: it is time to go in deeper with Vanity von Glow.

Themes range from wellness/mindfulness, human rights, youth culture, the LGBT+ experience, politics and more, with guests bringing their own themes and experiences to the podcast.
