Episode Description

For the second time in recorded primatology, a civil war has been observed between chimpanzees. This week, the guys get a little philosophical about the unique status of mankind as a political animal and the unlikelihood that we have much to learn from the chimps—progressive optimism and cash grabs notwitstanding. Meanwhile, Viktor Orbán lost the Hungarian election to Péter Magyar, a result misinterpreted by the Left as a pro-immigration, anti-nationalist repudiation of conservatism globally. What's really going on in Hungary, and what does it mean for us at home?

Creative Chamber of Happiness Susanna娜娜娜 As I walked into the field of creativity a year ago, I have been learning different mediums and vehicles to manifest my passion and believe from a creative collaboration program at artgym, and have experimented some with my community lately. Clearly podcast is one of the many ways for me to do so.The very initial idea came to me was that I should encourage more laughter and more love in this world since I feel there’s less and less of it. But how? With rounds of observations, discussions, experimentation, and reflections, the content I want to produce in this podcast became the answer to that.The reasons I call it a Chamber, haha you may find it very creative:+ I used to work for The American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, so Chamber is a popular word in my mind.+ I aim to create space for my podcast guests and listeners, that space is safe to share and causal to relax. + Along with online podcast, I will host offline events to continue that discussion, and host designed works
