The Liberal Aren'ts episodes

  • Episode 16 – Get a Better Mailman (History of Turkey V)

    Do you hear those voices? They’re the voices of history. And by history we mean Clio’s family. We’re still figuring out her new mic.

    Rissa experiences a shocking development. Clio brings us back to Turkey the long way. Science might be a big baby.

  • Episode 15 – Beware the Ides of Podcasting (Religion in Dragon Age)

    Soothsayer report: this Ide contains a 0% chance of stabbing, unless you are a mage in the game Dragon Age, apparently.

    Science talks about more things you should not lick. Rissa scrutinizes a fictional religion. Clio wants to art.

  • Episode 14 – That’ll Burn Out Your Nose Hairs (Tourist’s Guide to Prohibition II)

    Here at The Liberal Aren’ts, we answer the really really tough questions. Like which one of us would win in a fight.

    Clio disturbs us all mightily with biology. Science will fight you about jazz music. Rissa just wants to hear about gangsters.

  • Episode 13 – The Entire Internet is a Creative Writing Project (Solar Eclipse Fun Facts)

    Sometimes The Liberal Aren’ts brings you dense, inscrutable academic jargon and in-depth historical analysis. And sometimes we bring you this. Enjoy!

    Rissa’s head is in the clouds. Clio has stars in her eyes. Science is a bad roommate.

  • Episode 12 – A Song of Fire and Ice Cream Trucks (Joan of Arc in Art)

    This week, Rissa gets all meta on us by talking about how you can totally misrepresent a religion you don’t practice, even if you mean well, George.

    Science gives a public service announcement. Rissa still believes her. Clio is just…so tired.

  • Episode 11 – All Songs Are Breakup Songs (Tourist’s Guide to Prohibition I)

    This week, Science takes a stand: podcasts that touch liquor shall never touch…hers. Mine. Ours. And then she talks about liquor for forty minutes. It’s a tourist’s guide to Prohibition!

    Rissa begs for a job. Science has weird music taste, but at least she doesn’t blindly make playlists based on keywords, Clio.

  • Episode 10 – Santa Claus Was In Jail?? (History of Turkey IV)

    This week, Clio takes us through some Christian church history in–you guessed it–Turkey! Observe, as people argue for about 300 years.

    Rissa pronounces another word. Clio shows us one surefire way to get on the naughty list. Science is intimidating.

  • Episode 8 – Rap Neutral (Joan of Arc III)

    This week, Rissa finishes up her series on the life of Joan of Arc. Wow, I hope this story has a happy ending.

    Science is #WastingHisTime1601. Rissa can’t pronounce a single French word correctly. Clio does some internet scrounging. We all donate souls to our local food bank. Not our souls, mind you.

  • Episode 7 – Beans Are People Too (History of Turkey III)

    This week Clio takes us on a wild ride through more than 350 years of ancient history. It’s a good thing ancient historians never ever exaggerate or spread misinformation. Ahem.

    Rissa is in love. Clio introduces a dozen of her very best friends. Science gets a problem solved for once.
