Why is it that we can tell someone “I’m totally fine!” and they instantly know we’re not? Gestures, facial expressions, tone of voice, and other subtle nonverbal cues play a huge role in how we connect with one another.

- Objectivity as a form of Cowardice
In theory, a host of a podcast discussing myriad societal issues with people from across the political spectrum, and pushing back equally on their assertions and dogma regardless of their party or background would be a good thing.

I really liked this episode. Shaniqua McClendon was a great guest.
Apple Podcasts5elizschlesUnited Statesa year ago - Both sides nonsense
Both sides are “bad” 😒.

Apple Podcasts2StevenRatesSomeStuffUnited Statesa year ago - Social Security Episode
There’s a discussion that needs to be had about Social Security, but the host and her guest are not the two who should be doing it. I can’t tell if they’re shamelessly dishonest or just stunningly ignorant. This podcast claims to provide “smart, fair debates”with “integrity, and without clichés” but after listening to this one, I sincerely doubt it. It was another wall-to-wall cliché of the usual talking points premised on lies. I’m sorry I wasted my time. There are better podcasts out there if ... more
Apple Podcasts1claire's on itUnited Statesa year ago - Silence? Really?
When you ask people to not speak about Israel or Palestine, you are really saying keep quiet about your outrage about the genocide the world is seeing play in real time. Israel has the support of the US military, the US media and has a big advertising campaign. That is not going to change. Asking people not to say anything? Really? We know better.
