  • A science 'grants researcher' as an interviewer on a legal podcast??

    Not sure why the NB Network has science/medical 'grant researchers' with a pointed conservative agenda doing legal/law interviews. There are a lot of JDs out there more qualified to parse legal & religious books. Not impressive.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S. Orestis Palermos, "Cyborg Rights: Extending Cognition, Ethics, and the Law" (Routledge, 2025)
Q: Whose responsibility is it to protect our mental integrity?
The perceived freedom to choose technologies is an illusion, as societal expectations and circumstances may pressure individuals into adopting technologies, especially those with disabilities who rely on them.
S. Orestis Palermos, "Cyborg Rights: Extending Cognition, Ethics, and the Law" (Routledge, 2025)
Q: How do new threats to mental privacy arise from the Extended Mind thesis?
If our mental content extends beyond our biology to include data on devices, third parties could access this information, raising new concerns about mental privacy and manipulation.
S. Orestis Palermos, "Cyborg Rights: Extending Cognition, Ethics, and the Law" (Routledge, 2025)
Q: What do you mean by the extended mind? What is a cyborg for you?
A cyborg is a cybernetic organism where the mind extends beyond biological boundaries to include technologies that we interact with, blurring the lines between our biological self and the technology we use.
Rehan Abeyratne, "Courts and LGBTQ+ Rights in an Age of Judicial Retrenchment" (Oxford UP, 2025)
Q: Where do you see LGBTQ rights going from here in the US?
Sadly, I think we can expect more discrimination against trans people, while rights like same-sex marriage may remain under threat but have majority support among the public.
Rehan Abeyratne, "Courts and LGBTQ+ Rights in an Age of Judicial Retrenchment" (Oxford UP, 2025)
Q: Why specifically do you feel LGBTQ+ rights have become this sort of little pocket of rights?
Courts in the U.S., India, and Hong Kong have strategically used LGBTQ+ rights adjudication to sustain a progressive rights agenda with minimal political backlash, partly due to public support for LGBTQ+ rights remaining strong despite political conservatism.
