Episode 01 – Permits
“Permission to Breathe“
Season Four kicks off with another government-overstepping-bounds episode, this time complaining about permits, licensing, and zoning restrictions. What is the actual purpose of these bureaucratic hurdles?
Song:
“Light” – E. Rosenbladt
01:53:58
Episode 03 – Hurt Feelings
“When Snowflakes Meet Spitfires“
Are we responsible for our own feelings, or should people cater to what offends us? The Will Smith and Chris Rock Oscars drama spurs a deep conversation about fortitude.
Song:
“PolyPain Pt. 2” – C. Rochefort
01:28:38
Episode 05 – Sex Work
“Everybody Does It“
Revisiting one of our very first episodes, we dive 12x deeper (in terms of minutes, get your mind out of the gutter) into the topic of sex work. Ranging from consent to STDs, rape to body positivity, we cover as much as we can before getting too drunk.
Song:
“Counting the Days” – C. Rochefort
01:59:26
Episode 07 – Roads That Work
“From Civil Engineering to Engineering Civility“
Hear the guys bitch and moan about the ridiculousness of Seattle-Tacoma area roads. From complaining about shoddy planning by civil engineers, stupid drivers, & the propaganda surrounding drunk driving; all the way to conspiracy theories, and a mini-discussion on abortion.
Song:
“Digital Sunrise” – E. Rosenbladt
01:53:25
Episode 09 – Vitamin Woo
“Vitamin BS“
Are vitamins the miracle supplements they’re touted as? The Appeal to Nature logical fallacy is pervasive in this realm. We discuss the mechanics of vitamins and minerals, the pros and cons of natural vs synthetic supplements, & whether vitamins are augmentative.
Song:
“Pleasure” – E. Rosenbladt
01:30:00
Episode 02 – Double-Standards
“Do as I Say, Not as I Do“
Have you ever experienced a hypocritical event, be it in the form of getting dumped, in you church circles, at a job, or in just about any interaction? A talk about double standards goes into polyamory, religion, cancel culture, and current events.
Song:
“Arcana” – E. Rosenbladt
01:54:14
Episode 04 – Q: Good or Evil?
“Right On Q!“
Repeat guest, Randy Jones, helps us determine the side of the fence that Q from Star Trek actually resides on. Are his antics malevolent, sheer boredom, or a path to personal growth?
Song:
“StarPoint” – E. Rosenbladt
01:43:37
Episode 06 – Live to Work
“Everybody’s Working ON the Weekend“
Why have humans built this social psychology of living to work and micromanagement? Really, all that’s necessary is working to live, but we’ve romanticized ourselves into a very dysfunctional economy and hierarchical system as a result.
Song:
“Holding On” – C. Rochefort
01:35:46
Episode 08 – Assisted Suicide/Abortion
“Both Ends of Life“
A very emotional episode that delves into what we consider compassion at the end of life, versus the rationalizations we see at the beginning of life in terms of people’s opinions on abortion. Why do we feel entitled as a society to legislate the right to choose assisted suicide or to have an abortion? – regardless of the reasoning.
Song:
“Peace” – C. Rochefort
01:12:50
