The Pedantic Podcast

We chat about the ongoing Iran (not)war, politics in general, ethics, justice system, and gender conversion therapy.

This week, Shawn and I talk about current events, call out the hypocrisy of our politicians, make suggestions to improve accountability, and try out a new outro. Enjoy!

We didn't aim to talk guns...it just went off.

Slayton joins us for a chat about education, government's role in our lives, trade, automation, and value.

It's been a couple of weeks since our last episode. We hope you all had a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year......but this episode wasn't all about crackling fires and hot cocoa. While we've all been spending time with our families, and now, getting back into the swing of work, our government has been busy....let's talk about it!

Christmas, Communism, and Guns?

This episode we are joined by our good friend, and businessman, Slayton. We discuss leadership, philanthropy, and social responsibility.

We had another topic planned but, our government inspired us to discuss, critique, and ridicule them...as governments do.

This week....we discuss...drum roll.....religion. Enjoy!

Today, I did a solo talk about mental health and the workplace. Keep the conversation going and remember: Asking for help isn't a weakness; it's wisdom.

We're talking about work....again and your boss won't want you to hear this.

We talk about nothing happy and it's all Shawn's fault.

This week we welcome a special guest host, Ryleigh, who joined us all the way from Aberdeen University in Scotland to discuss a few hot button topics that are currently breaking the internet. Of course, we put our philosophical and psychological twist on the conversation...but did we go too far?

This week we talk about grief, depression, nihilism, corporate America, religion, and politics. So...lighthearted topics. Enjoy!

Philosophy, Free Will, Leadership, the human condition, and ignorance.
