Pat's political observations are as passionate as they are astute. He voted for Trump the first time, but was disillusioned as yet another President failed to exact any real change. Chris, Paul (Southern Podcast Authority) and Brent (Snow White Zombie Apocalypse) joined him for a debate on Centrist Vs. Left Wing politics. We were all surprised by how much we had in common. Four people from different political perspectives agreeing on the problems of the current political system, instructs us...

We debate the merits and pitfalls of democracy and abolishing monarchies with Jacob from BigYellowPraxis and Underrated/ Overhated https://www.youtube.com/user/inaholeinthegound/featured

Some say the left have no unity! Yet Toby and Chris had the pleasure of discussing the nuance in the differences between Marxist and Anarchist thought from Comrades: Brenton Lengal (Snow White Zombie Apocalypse, & Buenaventura Durruti), and Duncan Moore and Ryan Aldred (National Committee of the Socialist Party). We managed to avoid it descending into a confrontation, and an inspiring discussion was had.

It seemed like China had a 100 year plan, and the west was falling apart. Now it seems like everyone is struggling, and we're all in it together. We talk to two Americans (including Connor from the Prove Me Wrong, Please podcast) who have lived in China for several years. Initially to discuss whether China will rule the world better now the US is fading as a superpower. The discussion was impressively nuanced, and took a few fascinating turns.

German Political Analyst and Strategist Marc Saxer bring his experience in Asia and a unique perspective on how to transform Western politics. If Neo-Liberalism is dying, why has the Left failed to capitalize on it? How can climate change activism become more effective?

How can we break out of our political gridlock, and change the things that need fixing?

We discuss the need to avoid religious dogma, on the path to enlightenment and Nirvana. A fascinating exploration of Buddhism from two perspectives often presented as conflicting opposites.

Feminists often assume you’re either with them, or you're wrong, and IMHO this is a a big reason why many fail to be persuasive. However, Becs, my favorite and most charming Feminist friend was willing to come on for another round, and persuade me otherwise. At the halfway point, we get into INCELs, and true and false claims of sexual harassment, and violence. A history of and a future for misogyny and misandry. So this conversation is not for the faint of heart, but needs to be had more...

From the Fermi Paradox to Dyson swarms, the gang talks gravity assists, solar sails, recent developments in astrophysics, and the final frontier. What's the chance of life on other planets?

As America joins most developed nations with Church attendance no longer a majority activity, we ask: Is organized religion doomed, and what's worth saving? Matthew Distefano has been a shining light in a church that seems to have lost its way. Jesus was a person of color, killed in an act of state violence, but the moral leadership of religious authorities seems behind the times. Pablo and Chris share their experiences of why religion is still worth...

Leftube's rising Solarpunk Anarchist Saint Andrew delivers impactful essays on the problems and needs to go beyond Colonialism's legacy, and the inequities it continues to promote.

An American and British Perspective on modern racism, and why so many continue to argue at every opportunity against the Black Lives Matter movement. How racist is it to deny the existence of systemic racism? Aren't things better than they've ever been? Are terms like White Supremacy, Fragility, and Privilege helpful to dialogue? What can White People do to ally themselves in the struggle against racism? Is racism a bigger problem in America, or are they having a more open debate than in...

We're joined by Grahame Lynch, Publisher of the Australian Telecommunications Industry, for an in-depth, behind the scenes discussion of why Facebook stopped showing News on its news-feed, the history behind it, why the Murdoch vs. Zuckerberg is an overly-simplistic narrative, and what this all means for the future of media, social media, and the tech giants. If this is just the beginning? A deep dive on an issue with surprisingly broad consequences from a very-well informed and insightful...

We are mortal, and that one day we will all die. Whilst navigating this thorny discussion through tales of personal experience, uplifting philosophical musings and the occasional flippant attempt at brevity we find ourselves exploring some surprising and meaningful insights into our own psyches, find ways of dealing with the concept of mortality while confronting the nihilistic hedonism that steer so much of contemporary western thought regarding death.
