Ethan's Corner

In episode 10, I give a brief recap on the first season of Ethan's Corner. I discuss what I learned in this 10-week period as well as when you can expect season 2 to be released. 

In episode 9, I sit down with my mother and sister to discuss "Cancel Culture" in western society. We talk about cancel culture on university campuses, how social media plays a role in driving cancel culture forward, and the potential it has in impacting western society in the future.

In this episode, I discuss why I love Canada and why I will always celebrate Canada Day.

In this episode, I interview Superintendent Mike Bossley of the Calgary Police Services. I ask questions related to rebuilding trust amongst the police and the community in the face of COVID-19. 

In this episode, we look at the second part in my three-part cancel culture series. More specifically, we discuss Cancel Culture on University and College Campuses. I discuss how speakers are being boycotted, how professors are bing cancelled, and how students are afraid to share their opinions. I give the opinion that university and college campuses need to be defenders of free speech and expression and defend their students and professors when confronted with the radicalization of this Cancel Culture ideology.  

In this episode, I discuss Piagets Theory of Cognitive Development, more specifically the Sensorimotor and Pre-operational stages. In addition, I explain why PLAY is fundamental in a child's development as it helps with their cognitive development, social/emotional development, speech/language development, fine motor skills, and gross motor skills. I explain why children should live a normal life in the face of Covid-19 and encourage parents who are afraid to find ways for their children to interact with peers so they do not struggle developmentally in the future. 

In this episode, I discuss the "Cancel Culture" attack on John A Macdonald and the Emancipation Memorial in Washington D.C.. I discuss the importance of context and knowledge before making decisions such as removing statues or memorials. In addition, I address how "Cancel Culture" has the risk of erasing history and why we need to recognize the historical contributions of those before us, while also emphasizing their darker side. I provide the opinion that society should diversify in its education and history, and begin including the history of all races, ethnic groups, and heritages so we can have a better understanding of each others history.

In this episode, we take a look at the history of psychedelics, why they were prohibited and how 5 decades later, new research is emerging that shows promising correlations between the micro-dosing of psychedelics and mental health issues. 

In this episode, we look into Canada's failed response in dealing with the Covid-19 pandemic. In addition, we take a look at the World Health Organizations Non-Pharmaceutical public health measures for mitigating the risk and impact of epidemic and pandemic influenza. 

In this brief introduction, I will discuss who I am, why I've decided to start a podcast, and the variety of topics will touch on.
