Episode 12: The One Where They Talk Religion

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

samedi 7 février 2026 • Durée 01:21:01

In this episode, we finally dive deep into religion—the topic we've been promising since day one. We're thrilled to be joined by Reverend Benjamin Cremer, who brings serious theological credentials and two decades of pastoral experience. More importantly, Ben brings the kind of honest, historically-grounded perspective on American Christianity that cuts through the Christian nationalist white noise (pun intended).

We each share our spiritual journeys and unpack the movements that shaped our parents (and us), explore why American Christianity's extremists have become its loudest representatives, and ask the big question: does American Christianity exist outside of its dirty deal with power?

We also tackle where Gen Z fits into all this, why men are flocking back to rigid religion, what the "church of piety" looks like, and whether there's hope in Christianity's historical pattern of resistance movements. Spoiler: monasteries were the original protest against empire, and every reformation comes with reformers who get crucified for it.

Episode 11: 2026 Bingo (Predictions)

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

samedi 24 janvier 2026 • Durée 01:13:15

In this episode, we kick off 2026 by throwing caution to the wind and making bold predictions across 13 topics—from politics and culture to tech, religion, and even rollerblading. After acknowledging the grim moment we’re living through, we dive into what the coming year might hold: midterm forecasts, the future of Trump’s influence, who could emerge in the 2028 presidential race, and what might happen with religion in the U.S. We also predict cultural trends like the potential resurgence of rollerblading (yes, really), the “analog year” vibe creeping into consumer culture, social media fatigue, and a possible AI backlash.

Whether it’s geopolitics, Taylor Swift, or the coalitions shaping the parties, this episode is all about being right or wrong together and starting the year with curiosity and nuance. Plus we’re turning it into a Bingo game, and everybody (Emily) loves a chance to compete.

Episode 0: What is Nuance?

Épisode 1

samedi 19 avril 2025 • Durée 34:22

In our very first episode, co-hosts Emily Fisk and Trevor Adams introduce The Nuance Hour—a podcast about embracing the gray areas and digging into the layered, messy, interesting stuff that doesn’t fit neatly into headlines. We’re talking about the topics that deserve more than a hot take. In this intro, we chat about why we started the show, what “nuance” means to us, and what you can expect in future episodes. If you’re tired of black-and-white thinking and looking for deeper, more thoughtful conversations, you’re in the right place.

Episode 10: My First Dictatorship

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

vendredi 19 décembre 2025 • Durée 01:35:20

In this episode, we take on the grim (and increasingly undeniable) question of America’s slide toward authoritarianism, and why naming it plainly isn’t partisan. We talk about how the two-party duopoly keeps forcing every concern into a Coke v. Pepsi “they’re all the same” dead end, making it easier to normalize power grabs with “yeah, but the other side…” logic. Trevor makes the case that structural issues like campaign finance, Citizens United, gerrymandering, and winner-take-all electoral rules have weakened representation and primed the system for strongman politics, while Emily argues for a broader “No Kings” style coalition that can welcome people who don’t neatly fit into either party identity.

From there, we map the current authoritarian terrain: due process erosion, weaponized institutions, loyalty-driven governance, creeping normalization of extrajudicial force, and civil society collapsing faster than we expected. We also push back hard on the false binary of “apathy or revolution,” making the case for sustainable resistance rooted in community, joy, and practical action. We end with corners—some good news on state-level experimentation to reduce money’s influence in politics, and a bad-take detour into the internet’s latest brain-melt: “Is Taylor Swift a Nazi?”

Episode 9: Squids on Mars! Attention Farming and the New Politics of Conspiracy

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

lundi 17 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:23:20

In this episode, we dive into why conspiracy theories feel so irresistible and ubiquitous right now, and why they’re also so corrosive. We talk about motivated reasoning, media bias, and our crumbling trust in experts, from JFK and 9/11 truthers to lab-leak debates, QAnon, RFK Jr., and the evergreen “do your own research” refrain. We also unpack how the attention economy and social media reward rage-bait and fringe content, why weather modification and “chemtrails” became right-wing go-tos after the Texas floods, and how politicians from Trump to Marjorie Taylor Greene exploit conspiratorial thinking for power. Along the way, we make the case for real media literacy, intellectual humility, and learning to live with complex, less cinematic truths.

Episode 8: Kitchen Sink: Bad Things, Better Angels

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

samedi 20 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:18:11

In our first Kitchen Sink roundup, we start with the week’s heaviest news: the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We talk frankly about political violence, free speech, and why “bad things are bad” should be a baseline instead of a partisan Rorschach test. From there, we hit a scatter of stories we’ve been tracking: the stalled push to release more Epstein files (and why Thomas Massie is a Libertarian badass), a quick update on Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s case, West Ada’s “Everyone Is Welcome” poster fallout, and that bizarre “Did Trump die?” rumor cycle. We also reflect on the civic muscles we still need to flex, from Lincoln’s “better angels” to the everyday discipline of touching grass.

Episode 7: Is Trump Replaceable? Inside the Fractured MAGA Grievance Worldview

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

vendredi 29 août 2025 • Durée 01:10:24

In this episode, we try to untangle the ideological realignment of the Republican Party in the era of Trumpism. From Reagan’s conservatism to the rise of grievance politics, we unpack seven conservative principles—and ask if Trump ever pretended to adhere to them—delve into the Epstein files as a defining cultural myth for the MAGA movement, and question whether the MAGA coalition can survive without its orange avatar. Tune in for a candid, nuanced conversation on identity, power, and the emergence of cultural movements.

Episode 6: Does Size Matter? Lessons From Civil Resistance Research

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

vendredi 25 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:02:10

In this episode, we dive into research on violent and non-violent civil resistance movements of the past. What lessons can we learn from successful resistance movements? Is there a critical threshold of civic involvement in the face of oppressive regimes? We also report from our experience at the Boise No Kings protest in June. Are the 50501 protests different than the Women’s March and other resistance protests of Trump’s first term? Emily does a 108 on the value of protests.
