This is the first of an experimental bi-weekly conversational podcast in which James, Michael and I have contemporaneous yarns about what's happening in the world, new things we've read/learned and just have a general hang. Nothing in this conversation should be taken too seriously. Except Potassium. This episode is called the Summit Summit as it was recorded during the USA / North Korea peace summit in Singapore.We chat about North Korea, Dennis Rodman, Google and it's political sway, Terrence Tao, the Brainwashed mini series, signal theory and education, the excellent sci fi novel the Three Body Problem, whether the SJW movement is being overblown, Raelism, the incel movement and a bunch more.
We've also put together a quick survey to find out a little more about who you wonderful listeners are, where you're based, what you like/dislike about the podcast and what you'd like to see more of. For those that would like to partake, the link is below. It shouldn't take more than 4 minutes. For those more interested in the (slightly) more slick and researched expert interviews, we have more of those coming, they just take some time so they will be interspersed with these conversational pieces.
