Fusion Underground

We are back! After a month off we are back in full swing. In this return episode we kept it fun and talked about woke creators in pop culture. The upcoming Star Wars show "The Acolyte" has a writer who has never seen Star Wars (what could go wrong). We talked about the X-Men and the proper use of social metaphors. We also talked about the Fantastic Four and how a new storyline is built on woke gender politics.

Note: The wine is called 7 Moons.

Many people don't really understand what is meant by "left-wing politics." In this episode we talk about what it means to be an adherent to left-wing politics. Left-wing politics is an ideology that feels good, but results in causing far more harm than good. We break down why it's harmful and why people feel obligated to accept left-wing thinking.

We always talk about the importance of having, and following, a framework of principles. In this episode we talk about how your principles should form your views on political issues. If you allow emotions to govern your policy standpoints, then you will fall for anything and you will struggle to stand for anything.

We've been piling up all sorts of oddities in the media over the last several weeks. Things we've wanted to share and laugh about with all of you. So in this episode we decided to talk about how dumb the media often is.

The world is a crazy and often scary place. To overcome the many challenges and perils of life, you need to focus your attention at the task at hand. How do you focus and live a moral life at the same time? To do so you must live intentionally. We talk about this concept and why it's important. We also talk about why this same concept is important for raising children. If you do not prepare your children to live intentionally within the world, then you are setting them up for failure.

We did something completely different for this episode. We invited some men onto the show to talk about masculinity in today's world. Each of these men are fathers who are just trying to do what's best for their families and raise children in a society that increasingly finds fault with masculinity.

In this episode we talked about nerd stuff. More specifically, games and gaming. No, not gambling. The social act of playing games (board games, video games, etc.). Playing games is not just something kids do, adults play games as well. We make a case for gaming by looking at the value playing games does for society.

Every one of us has the ability to see people as something other than 'human.' Sometimes this can help us perform a necessary job, like work in an ER. However, this ability can also have very drastic and evil outcomes, such as murdering people for the perceived societal benefits. We talked about humans' ability to compartmentalize the humanity of others and what that can mean for society.

This is a big milestone for us. We've hit 50 episodes! Wow!

In this episode we continued our discussion about how men can start acting like men (and stop acting like boys trapped in a man's body). We also included some stupid news to keep you entertained.

In this episode we tackle how men can start acting like real men. We quickly realized this is a larger topic, and given we had a lot of things to touch on, this is only part 1 of this topic. We also talked about some stupid news.
