So… any of you bears wanna help me out? Thanks!!
Trueanon and Blowback are my personal favourites cannot recommend both of them enough, they're just so good.
Other flavourites of hexbear are Citations Needed, The Deprogram and the Antifada. I've also heard that Everybody Loves Communism, RevLeft Media, Radio War Nerd, Geopolitical Economy Report and Guerrilla Media are also good.
I really had a hard time getting into trueanon. I listened to quite a lot of episodes and Brace is very entertaining on other people's shows but i just couldn't stand his pod. Every episode just feels the same and in chapo pod style i hadn't a fucking clue what they were talking about half the time.
I feel like it's good to start with their the game series to kind of get a feel for the style of comedy without it being so in your face, idk with other podcasts I find the whole like, "here's 10 minutes of random bullshit before we actually start" kind of annoying but with Brace and Liz they just have good enough chemistry that it becomes actually funny
Their Falun Gong and Elon Musk series is what sold me on them. If anyone is on the fence about TrueAnon, those are very good starting points
i kinda felt the same, as someone who isn't american but the recent episode on the fake ebola hoax was awesome
Is Trueanon not a bit kooky or is that just the subreddit?

I don't know how many times I've endangered myself laughing while driving listening to them.
What sort of socialism podcast are you looking for in particular? Is it something:
I would like to hear some history of both US socialist movements and US action against socialist movements, as well as socialist movements in other countries. I would also like to learn about theory, and current affairs. It’s fine if it’s not all in one podcast, and I’m also open to one-off or series of podcasts focused on these historical aspects.
As someone else recommended in a top-level comment, Blowback is an amazing resource, especially season 2 and 3, which deal with the Cuban Revolution and the Korean War.
Podcasts on US social movements... that's a tough one. You'll hear some episodes covering this on RevLeft Radio but because most socialist movements in the US are either quite small and fragmented or they haven't achieved a whole lot there often isn't a huge amount to cover.
For US actions against socialism, Blowback is really good, as others have already mentioned. Others are American Exception and some episodes of Guerilla History.
For theory, I strongly recommend Red Menace as well as a lot of the stuff produced by Socialism For All. There's also Marx Madness, We Read Theory, Red Book Club, Radical Reviewer (on YouTube), and a lot of the episodes of Teach Me Communism.
For current affairs, there's Citations Needed, Radio War Nerd (specifically about wars), Everybody Loves Communism, The Deprogram, and some of TrueAnon.
While this next recommendation doesn't fit any of your categories, I'd also recommend Actually Existing Socialism because they interview primarily academics on their areas of expertise in socialist movements and it's really underrated, although it can be a bit dry so it might not be to your tastes.
My overall recommendation would be to try out an episode or two of whatever podcasts take your fancy to see if you like the presentation style and if it's to your preferred depth. Some of these podcasts are more conversational and entry-level while some of them go much deeper and lean towards the more academic side. There no right or wrong in this matter, it's just about finding what suits your preference.

There is a scourge haunting 
I mean, it has "socialism" in the name
Which makes me think it’s a bot-aggregated list. Ugh.
Citations Needed 
is the official podcast of hexbear.
Newsheads get Radio War Nerd and Newgang gets 
I'm not much of a podcast enjoyer, so I'll throw in some YouTube recs.
The Jakarta Method
The German communist podcast 99 zu 1 did an interview with the author, in english.
Proles of the Round Table was fantastic (RIP). Its successor Invent the Future has a few eps, I think it's on hiatus right now?
Those two talk mostly about historical social movements, across different countries. Also there's a sibling podcast, I guess you could call it, Work Stoppage, which covers current labour news.
Do you have any preferences/topics youre interested in or looking for? I would classify socialist-adjacent podcast in two different camps: podcasts made by socialists who talk about something else, and podcasts about socialism itself. The first one tends to be more entertaining and focused while the hosts openly interpret the topic through their politics , while the latter can be fun and educational while a bit more heavy on the theory/concept side.
For the first bunch i recommend Well There's Your Problem, a podcast about engineering disasters (with slides), and for the latter The Deprogram, we know one or two of the hosts browses hexbear.
At this point, I would like to hear about socialism since I’m somewhat at the “still learning” phase.
Go for The Deprogram! It's light but pretty entertaining and educational, not to mention Hakim is so knowledgeable that he drops dozens of book recommendations for most topics.
Where do chapo trap house and red scare fit into this matrix?
I've heard about half an episode each in friend's vehicles and didn't really hear much socialism but I figure that's how they get you. Pretty soon it's not my friend's car, it's our car.
Next thing you know we'll take your and your friend's toothbrush, too.
Both of those barely fit the 1st category. Most people here (me included) will have choice words about the hosts of either podcast, but let's leave it at them being clueless radlibs, if not worse.
In their current state, I wouldn't even consider them part of a "pipeline" (i guess that's what you meant by "that's how they get you"). True Anon is way more funny and interesting, and the people hosting it seem to have much more coherent politics.
FWIW after the early trump years cracked the facade of liberalism for me, chapo finished the job. Dunno if I'd be here without them.
Early trump chapo hit different though, then the Bernie campaign happened. Rn it's a funny comedy podcast about American politics with hosts a bit less clueless about the ills of capitalism than your average host, but I don't see them introducing anyone to anything else than "both parties fucking suck" as an idea.
Apparently red scare is kinda sus and reactionary but idk much about it bcs I've never listened to it myself, all I really know first hand is that the fans of it are completely insufferable
