    Sneak Peek: The Last City

    Exiled from a world of engineered perfection, Demetria crash-lands into the brutal reality of the Outerlands. Distrusted by the defiant survivors, her only hope lies with a mysterious AGI, First Belle. But the secrets it holds could break her... or forge her into the hero she never knew she could be.
    From Wondery, the makers of Academy and Dr. Death, The Last City stars actors Rhea Seehorn, Jeannie Tirado, and Maury Sterling.

    Comstockery!

    Comstockery!

    Could an 1873 law that hasn't been enforced in nearly a century be a national abortion ban just waiting to happen? Legal friend of the pod Natalie Birnbaum (Repro Solutions) returns to explain what the Comstock Act is, why it's getting so much attention lately and whether it could it ban medication abortion and even birth control. Highlights include: Gilded Age abortionist Madame Restell, a postmaster general gone wild, fake-out abortion referenda and Justice Samuel Alito's revisionist legal history.

    Magical Overthinking

    Magical Overthinking

    What do vision boards and Princess Diana conspiracy theories have in common? They both rely on a kind of magical thinking called proportionality bias. It's one of many cognitive biases that returning guest Amanda Montell connects to all the woo-woo and delulu going around these days. From the sunk cost fallacy of toxic relationships to the halo effect of female celebs to the declinism of everyday doomsday speak, Amanda makes even the most mindboggling and brainrotting realities of today's (mis)information overload more bearable.
    Highlights include: Beyonce's vegan surprise, Charli XCX stans, Earth Mamas, therapy influencers, TikTok astrologers and "learning to stomach a sense of irresolution."
    Amanda's new book is The Age of Magical Overthinking: Notes on Modern Irrationality.

LOVE IT

I have a request for advice: my mom is someone who believes in not letting anyone monopolize your body and dress codes are stupid… but today I wear a crop top to school and suddenly it was unacceptable. Advice? how do I make her say that she’s being hypocritical? - Charlie

Female Empowerment!

I LOVE LOVE this podcast- one of the few that I can listen to each and every episode. So well thought out, great dialogue, and super educational. Please keep this going!

One-sided at times

Usually I like the podcast, but I have noticed that some of the episodes are one sided. For example, the life coach episode. It does tell one side of the coaching industry and its pitfalls. It doesn’t talk about the side where people are certified through ICF (for example) over a 9-12 month period with classes every week. Where they need 100 hrs of coaching for the first level of certification. Where they are told the difference btwn therapy and coaching, and that any signs of needing therapy should require the coach to refer client to a therapist.
