Relationships and Meaning

Existence is Pain - Better never to have been

Sunday, August 1, 2021 • Duration 41:16

Today's episode is all about existence and pain (suffering). Philosophers like David Benatar have argued that coming into existence is always going to be a harm. Life is filled with pleasures, but the pains are always going to be much worse. If this is the case, are we always doing something morally wrong when we bring new people into the world? Can we logically say that we are harming people by creating them or harming future possible people that could be created? David and I try to tackle these problems while still holding on to our sanity.

What is a vaccine passport?

Sunday, July 18, 2021 • Duration 46:17

What is a vaccine passport? Well, we don't exactly know yet. It is some kind of identification to prove you are vaccinated, but what form that will take is unclear. In this episode David and I try to figure out exactly what vaccine passports are, what they will look like and (most importantly) what the pros and cons of implementing them are.

Why Have Children? An Ethical Debate

Wednesday, July 14, 2021 • Duration 50:25

In this episode David and I discuss the question 'why have children' through the lens presented by Christine Overall in her book "Why Have Children? The Ethical Debate". The main takeaway is that we really don't have any solid reason (be they utilitarian or deontological) to have children. This by no means results in us saying don't have kids, but it does question the societal pressure to procreate.

Mini-Cast - Abortion and Hypotheticals

Wednesday, June 23, 2021 • Duration 19:40

David and I talk a little about this rather influential and popular philosophical argument as to why abortion is (normally) immoral. We also discuss a few other popular case examples including the pod people and the famous violinist created by Judith Thompson. Hope you enjoy this shorter episode!

Abortion - Laws, Myths and Morality

Sunday, June 20, 2021 • Duration 57:36

Two white guys talk about bodily autonomy. That's it. Recently the state of Mississippi had proposed some rather interesting and potentially dangerous legislation on the topic of abortion which got us thinking. In this episode, David and I discuss the many laws and myths that surround the abortion debate in North America that are still present to this day. Our focus is not on any one side, rather the myths that act as dividing lines.

Superheroes

Sunday, June 6, 2021 • Duration 01:06:57

David and I discuss the myths and origins behind superheros, what they can tell us about our moral ideals and how quickly a hero can become a villain. Want to feel old? Miss the good old days? This episode is a blast from the past in the worst kinds of ways.

Fake News, Misinformation and Rabbit Holes

Saturday, May 22, 2021 • Duration 01:22:31

Critical thinking, wrestling and hockey? Can one episode really pack so much in? This week David and I discuss a new way to look at critical thinking in relation to media literacy. The SIFT method has some very positive upside for the casual learner, but can only take you so far. The SIFT method, at its core, is a defense against all the online fake news, misinformation and rabbit holes we call find ourselves bombarded with.

Tokyo Olympics: Covid 19 Concerns

Sunday, May 9, 2021 • Duration 01:28:03

There is more and more being said on a daily basis about the state of the 2021 Olympics and the Japanese preparedness (or lack there of), so David and I thought it best to go over some of the clear public health concerns at play. What reasons are there to go forward with the Tokyo Olympics and do those reasons outweigh general public health concerns?
