SLOOM

We decide to return to our roots and discuss some STEM content. But first! We talk about some of our inspirations behind Samwise and the story that we want to tell. Dear reader, the name of the greek god that Lucas was looking for is "Priapus". Listen to more on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more! Listen to Justin's new album here

In this episode of SLOOM, the boys let their brains take control over the topics. We talk about Pokemon, Socialism, Improving Ads, and Skylar begins his revolution against Lucas' control over the ads. Check out more on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or more!

Sam and Lucas take today to discuss the meanings of words. What does linguistics have to day about contexts providing more information to our words? Should future models of language focus on intended meanings through contexts or predefined, strict meanings? How should a computer interpret sounds not understood in language? Can they be completely ignored, or do they have meanings that are relevant? Find out more by listening!

Alright I'm going to be honest: we saved the best for last here. Lucas relays the story of his drunk purchases. Sam talks about his friend at the bar. Justin remembers he's at the podcast. Fun fact! Sam has used his hand to wipe his ass multiple times and reportedly would do it again! We discuss the meta-game surrounding ass-wiping in order to show Sam he is a bad, wrong person. We also talk more about colonialism because it's relevant to address it while talking about this. To be honest, you could probably skip part 1, it's mostly just the lore.

Lucas decided it would be a good idea to bring SLOOMS1E2 (the second episode of SLOOM) out of the vault. I don't know why. Enjoy this mess. Juleon makes his first appearance on SLOOM to talk about esoteric computer languages and super tasks. Have you ever wanted to code in a language where you can only use blank spaces? Could you complete an infinite number of tasks within a finite amount of time? Listen to find out!

Lucas and Sam sit down to discuss Sam's summer journey to Tanzania. Lucas compares some of his stories with that from a time he went to Germany. We discuss the first times feeling foreign to those around us, colonialism, and more! Shout out to those that read the description! I wrote this one for you! I love you!

A NEW SERIES FROM SLOOM: AN IMMORTAL BEING PONDERS CONVOLUTED HUMAN NOTIONS OF DEATH, TIME, AND EXISTENCE. LISTEN TO THE THOUGHTS OF SAMWISE THE SULLEN.

Lucas is an idiot! Thankfully, he found the first episode of Sam's review! This episode, the boys (minus Jasper :( ) sit around and test the fruits of the labor of Stonehouse Brewing: The Blood of the All-Father and A.D.A.M.. Sam (here, the Intern) brings his intern, Moose, to help. Lucas tries to explain the brewing processes behind mead, beer, whiskey, and brandy.

FRESH FROM THE COVID LOCKDOWN VAULT: In this episode of SLOOM, we bring Skylar on to discuss Simulation Theory. We also debate the legitimacy and use of conspiracy theories. Is the universe around us just a simulation? Has Skylar been listening to too much Joe Rogan? Find out by listening to this episode!

Introducing: The first annual summer guest host episode! Content warning: we will discuss suicide in this episode. French philosopher Albert Camus established the philosophy of "The Absurd" with his works Le Mythe de Sisyphe, Le Peste, and L'Etranger. With guests Nick and Emily, we explore some of our questions that he poses and discuss The Absurd in relation to our personal philosophies. Check out more from SLOOM with the links below:
