HN would probably hate it but I've been digging Panic World. They investigate mostly modern media or internet-driven moral panics and discuss how they've led us to our current moment. Lots of 90s/2000s internet deep dives, but I mostly appreciate how well the host connects the dots between cultural/political zeitgeist (of any recent era) with some seemingly minor niche movement or idea seeded years prior.

Ah I just read your comment after posting the same rec!
I went into panic world with low expectations and they’ve blown me away. It’s really, really good if you’re interested in internet cultures.
