Roughly on Topic

I unfortunately cannot keep the content that was on this rss feed up. This is both because of personal issues and my own standards for audio quality. I hope to make more content to put up here eventually because for the past year it has been really fun.

The third episode of Roughly on Topic, in which three friends have a conversation about their fears, which ends up being about immortality. 

Tell us if you would want to be immortal (or have some form of extended lifespan) or send us questions to answer in the future at [email protected]! The conversationalists are Nate S., Spandan K., and Daniel L.. The music is by Ricardo Z. 

Still the second episode of Roughly on Topic, in which three friends have a conversation about space exploration.

Jumping off from the last episode, we talk about who is going to go and explore, artificial intelligence, off-world material science, and more!

Send us questions at [email protected] so that we can answer those in the future!

The second episode of Roughly on Topic, in which three friends have a conversation about space exploration.

We have a lot of interest in the future of space exploration, so we wanted to talk about what might just be the next space race! There has been a lot of news about how humans just may be getting to the moon by 2024, and from there, with the gateway orbiter, we could go anywhere else! (That is close, and has helium 3.)

 The first episode of Roughly on Topic, in which three friends have a conversation about standardized tests, because the SAT comes very soon for us. The "debate" is between Nate (for) and Daniel (against), with Spandan as the judge. Guiding questions to this episode in order of natural occurrence are below. Thank you!  

Nate’s question(s): What are some alternatives to standardized tests?  What would it be like if the colleges only focused on grades and extracurriculars? 

Daniel’s question: Would a better test that measured responses to situations be better than SAT-style tests?

Spandan’s question(s): Are large nationwide standardized tests like the SAT really necessary?
