  • Episode 24: Ingenious Perspectives on Whus Hattnin

    We joined in with another podcast called Whus Hattnin, and we talked about how we can contribute to eliminating sexual assault on women. We started off a little light hearted, following up on a previous episode of Whus Hattnin, before getting into the difficult topic at hand. We talked about how we can mentor other men, intervene in negative situations, and not accept certain behaviors as normal, simply because they've been accepted in the past.

  • Episode 21: One Year Later

    In this episode we decided to revisit the events of Jan 6, 2020. However, like all discussions on Ingenious Perspectives, we ended our discussion off topic with way more that needed to be said. Enjoy our musings on polarization, acceptance, student loans, and anything else into we can transition smoothly.

  • Episode 20: Political Separation

    In this episode we open with a discussion on Lawrence's latest read, "Why We're Polarized" by Ezra Klein. We discuss the expanding distance between the political ideals of the majority two parties in the United States. That discussion leads us into some interesting thoughts on family and our ever present nerdiness.

  • Episode 19: The Follow Up

    We kept our promise. We ended the last episode on a cliffhanger, and we went back to explore that closing topic in this episode. As always, we digressed more than a little, and we included our episodic shoutout. Equality does not come without sacrifice, and we got into some of that here.

  • Episode 18: Reparations

    In this episode we discuss the difficult topic of reparations. As this is a very difficult topic, please keep your minds open to paradigms outside your own (our normal request). There's not much to elaborate on in this description. Listen and learn

  • Episode 17: Voting Rights

    In response to losing the White House, many state level, Republican controlled legislatures have released or proposed waves of bills that will increase the difficulty of voting. Can these laws really be considered hard restrictions or targeted restrictions, or are the Democrats simply whining about something that doesn't really have impact. In this episode we try to tackle that very question while taking absolutely unnecessary shots at Ted Cruz.

  • Episode 16: Welcome to Year Two

    In this episode we review year one of Ingenious Perspectives. We talk about some of the progress we have made through the year and goals we have going into next year. We take some time to enjoy our triumphs and reflect on moments that made us cringe. We sincerely hope that every person who has joined us during this first year has enjoyed the journey. Keep expanding your paradigms with us as we enter Year 2 of Ingenious Perspectives.

  • Episode 15: Justice League

    Did you watch the first Justice League and experience a great deal of disappointment? Did it feel disjointed and not driven properly by a narrative? We are here to tell you all about the solution, Zack Snyder's Justice League. Please enjoy our rant about the new Justice League movie. Somehow, we are able to turn this into a discussion about New York politics, bad movies, and Smithsonian Tours. There will be spoilers, so be sure to watch the movie before you finish the podcast.

  • Episode 14: Respectability Politics
    What role does respectability politics play in our day to day lives? Do we allow it to sequester our sense of self to make others feel comfortable? We try to tackle this very difficult topic in this episode.

  • Episode 13: Capitol Riots

    We went a little off the reservation for this one. We decided to tackle to capitol riots right out of the gate. We left off the introduction and music. This discussion just needed to be had.
