Join me as we ride the giddy wave of the discourse, surfing from topic to topic and commentator to commentator, deep-diving into what people are saying, and whether it makes any sense.
Jack Treadwell is currently researching Cognitive Science in a Philosophy PhD (while moonlighting as a podcaster and writer).

Greetings ye surfers of The Discourse!
If podcasts were scented, today’s episode would exude a sweet, though somewhat mildewed musk, courtesy of the main subject of discussion: Mr Elon.
Elon Musk is a noted memer and rascal entrepreneur, famed for ... more
Welcome, Discourse Surfers!
In this episode, we peer behind the curtain that conceals Konstantin Kisin, and let me tell you, there’ll be no Kisin up to the fellow here. While he exhibits all the superficial trimmings of a well-groomed thinker, upon... more
Welcome to the discourse!
Today we’re going to take a peep at what the commentariat have to say about the war in Ukraine – a topic that has proven irresistible to non-expert partisans of all stripes. As we’ll see, there’s a particular narrative that... more
We're doing something a bit different this week - surfing further afield than normal, to get a feel for the broader conversation 0n a topic that's on everyone's lips: the scurrilous (and rather serious) allegations against Russell Brand.

My only complaint is I’d love more frequent episodes. He’s onto a winner here, well done!
Those that can, do and those that can’t, critique. I’m assuming this this is the podcast version of restaurant or movie critiques, don’t know why they exist but guess important for the world we live in.
I came after listening to DtG for years and I was not disappointed!
I am from the USA and I have really loved learning how other anglophone cultures gleefully take public figures down a notch.
Hearing Treadwell puncture bad logic and poor thinking is very satisfying. The figures he has covered have such powerful, toxic ideas; it’s good to hear a thoughtful, thorough, and yet merciless rebuttal.
Highly recommend.
Pulls together the shared assumptions and claims from across the heterodox sphere and asks “what is the evidence for this?”.
Works well and points to third party sources for evidence rather than simply making claims.
Sometimes uses hyperbole - but tbh given some of the crazy claims being made by heterodox taking heads it adds to the fun.
It’s the greatest podcast on the planet folks
