June 12, 2023Contextual Healing (3/3) One more for the road: Contextual Healing (3/3)**Warning: Distressing Langauge + Themes**____________________________________________________________________Forgot to mention 1/2"Defund the police" is an incredible example of how narcissism can railroad what should have been a potential path to progress. (Alliteration unintentional).Rational, logical, moral people agree with what DTP represents, but the slogan is awful, no other way to put it. No, it's not "just like Black Lives Matter." In the most literal sense, what does Black Lives Matter mean? It means....wait for it...Black Lives Matter!In the most literal sense, what does Defund the Police" mean? Oh wait, you need to explain it because that's not what it literally means? Umm...that's not how slogans work. So...youre gonna change it right? You're not gonna dig your heals in further, right? Omg you are, because of course you are. Ugh...Forgot to mention 2/2A.I. (Artificial Intelligence):Hell no. Who the hell is asking for A.I. at such an enormous scale? The amount of greed and shear hatred of [and lack of belief in] people that's already occured for the production to advance this far is mind-melting, not to mention the amount of money being poured into these projects. It's a ready made horror movie, and similar to many issues in current society, makes it all the more depressing to see so many support real-life movie villains.Forgot to mention: a bazillion other things__________________________________________________________________Thoughts in conclusion:The irony of finally naming the podcast what I've wanted to for years, Contextual Healing, then finally posting it with each topic getting minimal context...I guess it's amusing in a funny, not funny at all sort of way. Sigh...I could have spent an endless amount of time on each subject, with countless examples and situations and nuance and etc etc etc. This isn't the way I wanted to do it at all, but nothing about this is in any way how I wanted *anything* to go._______________________________________________________________________My twitter account is @ComarowsCornerFor the last year it's mostly just been my head exploding at various times, then taking a break, rinse repeat, but for anyone actually willing to search back, I went into tons of detail for damn near every subject at one point or another. It may take some sifting through, but it's all there in all it's rambling glory, though obviously the hundreds of documents where I've written more fleshed out thoughts will never find a home. Depressing..._______________________________________________________________________The most important thing I hope gets across is the absolute necessity to prioritize morality, as well as making it clear that it doesn't take any sort of expert or genius to process exactly what's going on in society (consider me Exhibit A as proof of this).It also doesn't take more than a bare minimum amount of time considering most of what I mentioned rarely changes much (if at all) in the way topics are covered.The next time someone frames a topic as "vital for democracy" consider how much stronger an impact could be made if instead it was framed with a priority on morality.And for what it's worth, this isn't anywhere near alligned with the "Love Will Always Win" crowd." Ugh, those people are ridiculous, it's an empty cliche taken to an impossibly dumb level. Even at the most basic level it doesn't make any sense.I am not a liberal, a democrat, a leftist, or any other buzzword. I'm someone who simply wants the best for people and society, it ain't complicated. I support what's good and stand against what's bad, always with an open mind for nuance.Again, it's ain't complicated....And yet... I guess it is complicated, because otherwise these thoughts which I consider the lowest common denominator of what should constitute morality wouldn't place me on an island for my entire life. I'm sure as hell...more June 11, 2023Contextual Healing (2/3) It's about equity, not equality.**Warning: Language + Distressing Themes**...more June 11, 2023Contextual Healing (1/3) Contextual Healing 1/3**Warning: Language + Distressing Themes**...more March 05, 2020UVA/State Reaction + The Most Dangerous 13-17 Team Ever?

UVA/State Reaction + The Most Dangerous 13-17 Team Ever?
2019-20, Ep. 26

I run down Duke's impressive responses to adversity this season, express my lineup abandonment issues against Virginia, and finish up with a bemusement/amusement combo regarding the general response to Duke's zone success vs NC State. Plus there's ACC Tourney seeding scenarios, because nothing gets me amped more than seeding scenarios.
Also, I'M CALMER THAN YOU ARE ABOUT FACING A 13-17 TEAM WHICH POSES NO THREAT AT ALL TO DUKE NOPE NONE WHATSOEVER.

I do my best to make sure each DBC episode contains far and away the best Duke MBB analysis you'll find anywhere. I'd love to cover the team full-time, but the only way that happens is if I receive help spreading the word. It's a supply and demand business, and if better coverage isn't demanded and then consistently supported and promoted, nothing will improve. Please rate AND leave reviews. If you've previously left a review, leave another. I pour my heart and soul (and infinite amounts of time) into the DBC pod. If you enjoy, why not take 30 seconds to help me out? By doing so, you'll also be helping other Duke fans receive the best team coverage in the country. Thanks!

2019-20, Ep. 25
23-5 (13-4)
The blown lead sucked, but my concerns about Duke's loss to Wake Forest go well beyond a late-game collapse.
-95:23- fin
*I made a point about Duke's struggle against the Wake zone, and want to be clear that point was related to the first half (scored on just 5 of 23 zone possessions ) and not the second half (scored on 7 of 13 possessions before Wake stopped zoning) or overtimes (no zone). Overall, in the halfcourt, WF played zone on 23 of 35 possessions in the first half, 13 of 34 second half possessions, and 0 of 7 overtime possessions. I want to make that clear in case it sounds like my point comes across as Duke struggling against the WF zone for all 50 minutes.

Contrary to what the internet would have you believe, actual basketball things occured during Duke-NC State beyond mindless groupthink cliches, and I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around one vital aspect as the game.

DBC Deep Dive: Duke @ UNC February 8, 2020
2019-20, Ep. 21
21-3 (11-2)
Time for a DBC Deep Dive to cover all aspects of a truly epic Duke-UNC game. As Jay Bilas said during the game, it always delivers, and he was right on a higher plane for what we were fortunate enough to witness on Debruary 8, 2020. Every aspect of the game gets deserved attention, so basically it's exactly what makes a DBC Deep Dive great. I'm joined on the episode by Andrew Clark.
