A podcast of essays and lively interviews featuring nuanced, civil discussion of interesting cultural and political topics. We question why we believe what we believe, and what place the media and other social forces have in not only fostering those beliefs, but in framing our basic assumptions. We are obsessed with injustice, irrationality, and with injecting some civility and tolerance back into civic discourse. To that end, questioning assumptions, slaughtering sacred cows, and calling out nude emperors is also a lot of what we do.
