Nick and Gabriel chat about a lesson from Roman history and what it says about SA today, we chat about where the American election is going and the future of energy production

Nick and Gabriel chat about Gabriel's new theory that misapplication of family values is the source of all our modern social and political woes.

Description: Nick and Gabriel go a bit off the rails this episode (even more so than usual) to make the case for why we should seriously consider the colonization and terraforming of Mars.

Nick and Gabriel host their first guest on 2 crickets in a thorn tree, former Protea cricketer Boeta Dippenaar, to discuss his recent comments about Black Lives Matter the movement, and how he got drawn into the world of politics.

The crickets start with a weird case from the U.S supreme court which quickly devolves into a discussion of the importance of legislatures and then Gabriel takes down one of the saints of race nationalist thought.

Gabe unpacks the why Fallists told him Mandela is Judas at UCT and why Princeton has stripped Woodrow Wilson's name. Nick takes the long view, perhaps India is where liberty-lovers should be looking for the Next Century.

Nick and Gabe discuss the toughest question in South Africa, how deep does the rot go? They find themselves reaching back to Kipling's "Burden" poem to explain the popularity of 21st-century racist norms and wrap on a recollection of Gabe's role in the June 16 SABC 1 Hector Pieterson debate.

Nick and Gabriel set out to discuss the romantic ideals behind the CHAZ commune, they then heap praise on the Daily Sun and finally talk about some reasons other than "white supremacy" that drive SA police to be trigger happy.

Nick and Gabriel without fear of being canceled dive headfirst into the swirling vortex of the ‘Black lives matter’ protests. Examining the demands by the protestors to ‘de-fund the police’, as per usual they discuss the esteem economy as well as the madness of crowds and the right to equal treatment under the law.

Nick and Gabe discuss various parallels between the self-inflicted, pointless bloody mess of WW1 and the 2020 pandemic response. Just in case you think they're rabid anti-lockdowners they then make the case for keeping schools closed in SA, the country which currently holds the worst lockdown performance on record.
