Academic Edgelords episodes
- EP2: Did the Unabomber Have a Point? (on Anarcho-Primitivism & Ted Kaczynski)The ultimate Academic Edgelord has died: Ted Kaczynski, the domestic terrorist. He indeed was a scholar, with a few peer-reviewed works in mathematics. On this episode, we read his manifesto: Industrial Society and its Future. Why do so many people think the Unibomber was right?1 hr 13 min
- EP1: Are We the Academic Edgelords?This is a scholarly podcast about scholarly provocateurs. Gadflys, charlatans, and shitposters sometimes get tenure, believe it or not. This is a leftist podcast that takes a second look at their peer-reviewed work, and tries to see if there’s anything we might learn from arguing with them. But on this episode, we ask: should we even be doing this? Does engaging with odious ideas actually make us the academic edgelords?1 hr 16 min
