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.

THE PRESENT

Our newly renamed podcast, Demand Utopia: A Solarpunk Podcast is all about radical hope and resistance in the age of climate disaster. This newest iteration of Solarpunk Magazine's podcast will launch it's first episode on Monday, January 27, 2025.

On Demand Utopia: A Solarpunk Podcast, host Justine Norton-Kertson (founder and co-editor-in-chief of Solarpunk Magazine) envisions a world where humanity thrives in harmony with nature, equity and justice guide our communities, and creativity fuels solutions to our shared challenges. By imagining brighter futures and confronting current crises with resilience, we aim to cultivate hope and empower individuals to co-create a sustainable, inclusive, and thriving planet. Our mission is to inspire hope and action by exploring solarpunk ideas, sharing grassroots solutions, and amplifying the voices of change-makers who challenge dystopian realities. Through critical analysis, meaningful conversations, and creative storytelling, we provide listeners with the tools and inspiration to build a more just, equitable, and sustainable world while nurturing optimism in the face of adversity.

THE PAST

Our podcast began with the title Solarpunk Futures and has gone through a few different iterations. Starting in the fall of 2021, the original podcast ran for seven monthly episodes. Then beginning in fall 2022, the podcast was rebranded as Solarpunk Presents. That iteration was hosted by our then non-fiction co-editors Ariel Kroon and Christina De La Rocha. In January of 2023, Solarpunk Presents branched off on its own as a separate podcast, and in the spring of 2024 Solarpunk Futures came back briefly for a few episodes before going on hiatus for a reworking and rebranding.

A podcast for people working to change the world

More people care about the climate than ever before. But we all know that recycling or reducing our carbon footprint alone won't cut it when it comes to tackling the challenges ahead. That’s why it's no surprise that an increasing number of people are looking to pivot their careers towards climate action.

But this isn’t easy: navigating this complex and fast-evolving field can be daunting, especially if you don’t have a climate science or engineering background. Many of us simply don’t know where to start or how to use our skills to have an impact.

So, in this series, host Ben Weaver-Hincks will speak to guests who have made or are making their own climate pivots. From artists and academics, to business owners and legal experts, each episode will uncover inspiring stories of individuals who are transitioning their careers to tackle the climate crisis in their own way.

Join us as we explore the diverse pathways and possibilities for creating positive change.

Forest Builders is a podcast bringing to you the stories of people who dedicate their work to the preservation of our forests.

Feeling sometimes at loss with how we are collectively responding (or not responding) to the climate crisis ahead of us, I found inspiration in these conversations with people who found their pathway into action. I had the chance to meet these inspiring individuals, and they were generous to share their time and stories.

I hope that their stories inspire you as much as they inspired me!
