Reviews

4.1 out of 5 stars from 405 ratings
  • Insufferable

    The concept of Surrounded is a great one, but it’s not implemented properly. The “debaters” are largely unprepared and tend to mistake emotionality as persuasive argument. I am always disappointed and stop listening out of frustration.

  • Interesting concept could add fact check to podcast

    I appreciate the way that this shows challenges the ways the people think and brings together people of different backgrounds and beliefs

    The podcast would be so much better if there was some way to add the addition of a fact check after a statement like the show does. Maybe pause the argument audio and have the fact read out. I often find myself defaulting to the YouTube show to see what is true or false when someone reads out a statistic

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

1 Liberal Man vs 20 MAGA Conservatives (ft. Harry Sisson) | Surrounded
Q: Why has Donald Trump cut cancer funding by billions of dollars?
Sisson cites reductions in cancer research funding, including support for pediatric brain tumor research, and says continued investment is needed for medical breakthroughs. The debater challenges his characterization and questions the funding decisions.
1 Liberal Man vs 20 MAGA Conservatives (ft. Harry Sisson) | Surrounded
Q: Would you be okay if we restricted immigration from countries that were net detractors to America rather than net benefactors?
Sisson opposes restricting immigration on that basis, arguing that policy should consider humanitarian obligations and asylum alongside economic contributions.
Harry Sisson Reacts to His Viral Debates | Surrounded Follow-Up
Q: Are you concerned about any strands of extremism or radicalization that is happening in your own party, on your own side of the aisle?
Sisson says he opposes extremism on either side, while arguing that right-wing extremism has been more damaging and more normalized in recent years.
Harry Sisson Reacts to His Viral Debates | Surrounded Follow-Up
Q: What's it been like becoming one of the younger surrogates or proxies for the Democratic Party?
Sisson says he began political advocacy at 17 and has experienced both the rewards of meeting people and advocating for causes and the risks of being doxxed and swatted.
1 OF Model vs 20 Anti-S*x Work Advocates (ft Farha Khalidi) | Surrounded
Q: For your first point, the fact that it somehow degrades the sanctity of it to again make it available for a transaction. Like I was saying earlier, I don't think we apply this to other things, right?
Khalidi responds that making something available for payment does not automatically make it degrading, comparing sex work with cooking or painting as work people may do both privately and commercially. She says consent, coercion, and fair treatment matter more than whether an activity is transactional.
