On this podcast Issy Woods, Tish Qvortrup and I discuss pornography. Tish has been doing research into how our society is affected by porn and how porn is affected by our society. The patriarchy and capitalism both drive porn to become more extreme and easily accessible. Issy has experience running sexual education workshops with school children and is also well versed in the discussions surrounding sex, gender and ethical pornography.

This is a conversation with Sister Jinho, an ordained nun in the Mahayana tradition of Buddhism. We discuss how uncertainty of the future can be viewed, why meditation is productive for anyone and if religion is good or bad for humanity.

Sister Jinho has chosen to live a spiritual life, her insights and perspectives are a great resource for people looking to see the world from a different angle.

Thank you

This podcast is a discussion around the 'Millennial sex recession'. The young people of today are apparently having less sexual intercourse but more sexual partners on average than the two previous generations.

Sophie Peachy and I discuss this topic and cover porn, social media, dating apps, rape culture, body confidence and we have a great chit chat along the way.

 

Sophie is a co-founder of the website: https://www.quaranzine.online/ Quaranzine is an online magazine that produces comedic articles around topics from sex to politics. I recommend you give the site a visit!

This podcast is an exploration into the topic of psychedelic drugs and the possible role they might play in changing our society. Here you will find answers to questions like... Why would I take psychedelics? How can I take psychedelics safely and responsibly? Who should not take psychedelics? What would a world with legal and open use look like? Why are psychedelic users disproportionally white? How do psychedelics work in terms of the neuroscience? 

Martha Allitt is a recent Neuroscience Grad and Liam Chamba is an Archeology and Anthropology student. Both have a passion for the exploration of self and community healing. This discussion highlights some major points which you will not hear in main stream media. Enjoy Folks!

Sophie Settle and I discuss her thesis on the red pill chat forum where she explored masculinity, what is an Alpha or Beta male and we try to work out the difference between masculine and toxically masculine traits. Thankfully, feminist movements are starting to create a more equal power balance between the sexes. This has created confusion for some men and what roll they play in todays society.

On this podcast Nina Turnbull and I discuss the idea of understanding 'the other'. We explore Nina's thesis which was a depth study into the colonial writer Charles Sturt's journal.Charles Sturt was a pioneering British explorer in Australia during its colonisation and in the thesis Nina analysed how Charles Sturt described the indigenous population of Australia. 

Enjoy Folks!

Jacob Salawu is a recent graduate in Politics from Bristol University. His final year thesis asked the question as to why there is a huge under representation of minority ethnic groups at Russel group universities in the UK. This episode is a great reminder that institutionalised racism is very present in the UK. We also discussed the Black Lives Matter protests following on from the death of George Floyd. Enjoy.
