  • Welcome.
    What will we do here? What’s the point? Listen to the welcome message to find out. The host is Carl, a New York English teacher in Japan who invites you to consider the nature of common and uncommon ideas and problems—all if which we face in the context of a rapidly degrading environment—like a spacesuit with a slow leak.
