The Quiet Part Loud Podcast

Assange apprehended, Trump acting like he's never heard of them, Ecuador has had it and episode 81 is just getting started.

Then it's Candace Owens testimony, William Barr's "spying" comments and Pete Buttigieg running for President. We give a bit of time to Kim Kardashian's lawyer dream and the naked cleaning company that opened in Scotland.

Enjoy!

Episode 80 we're talking about the increase in Robocalls from companies in the UK and how to stop what is creeping into harassment.

We're also discussing the duty of care being handed to social media companies, what this means for freedom of expression and where the line of censorship and deplatforming will be drawn with these sites.

From there, it's Brexit updates, Antivaxxers and the latest from across the pond in Trumpland. How people can be so incompetent and yet suffer no consequences.

Sprinkle a bit of Netflix talk, Line of Duty and Game of Thrones and there you have it.

Enjoy!

Episode 79 is here and we're talking the recent twitter war between Conor and Khabib and what it means for the potential rematch. Then we're talking about Jeff Bezos' record-breaking divorce, the Sultan of Brunei proclaiming being gay is an offence punishable by death and the boycott taking place in response.

Then it's an update on Brexit, the latest from the Tangerine man and his attacks on Joe Biden who was accused of excessive tactile behaviour in the past.

Finally, our thoughts on a recent study that claims the biggest dietary problem across the world is an increased amount of salt. The report ignores sugar and obesity as problems...so....

Enjoy!

What a difference a day makes. We're back for the second show of the week with plenty to discuss.

First, we're giving must watch and don't bother recommendations on Netflix. Then we discussing the retirement of Conor McGregor from MMA and the recent allegations of sexual assault.

Moving on we're looking at the Jussie Smollett case and discuss why the charges were mysteriously dropped but yet the Mayor and Chief of Police in Chicago both feel just was subverted.

We dive into the backlash from the Mueller report and how, true to form Trump and the mainstream media take the low road.

Finally, we end with some light subject matter...you know the ethnic cleansing in Palestine by the Israeli government and the discovery by the owners of Krispy Kreme of their Nazi family history.

Enjoy!

Back after a week off because of scheduling issues and it's right on time. We're talking the release of the Mueller Report after a 2-year investigation and the extension of Brexit. We're digging into the state of the media and how their constant partisanship will dilute the remainder of their credibility.

Then we're talking about the recent announcement from singer Sam Smith, who's come out as non-binary and discuss what would happen if regular people made this brave decision.

Then we discuss the recent Google was issued by the European Court and why getting older means being careful at all time or risk blowing out a knee.

Enjoy!

Episode 76 pays respect to the victims of the Christchurch shooting. An act of senseless violence towards the New Zealand Muslim population sees white nationalism and right wing extremism rearing its head.

It's a short episode.

Enjoy.

Like every other podcast this week, we're talking Leaving Neverland.

After a breath, we move on to Brexit, Antisemitism and Israel's PR campaign on the west. We discuss why you should always criticise and question your government.

Then we look at why leaving the past behind may just be the break you need to get pointed in the right direction for the rest of your life.

Enjoy!

Episode 74 is diving straight into the conversation of transgender rights and the recent backlash against Martina Navratilova. We discuss what the entry point of calling yourself transgender is and how absurd some scenarios have become.

From there, we're into Trump, North Korea, the summit that never was meant to solve anything but was to serve as a distraction piece on the same day Micheal Cohen testified. We also look at what has occurred as a result of the summit not detracting from the testimony and how conservatives have now started a smear campaign against AOC.

Finally we recap UFV 235 and bounce out with a reminder to watch Leaving Neverland and Surviving R Kelly.

Enjoy.

The theme throughout episode 73 is absurdity. We're looking at the most absurd stories of the past couple weeks.

First up, the #screentimechallenge update. The absurdity of social media and the amount of time we spend zombified on our phones.

Next, Jussie Smollett and the absurdity of ego, martyrdom and virtue signalling. Then it's the absurdity of Martina Navratilova being penalised by her own community for speaking the truth about trans athletes. Even R.Kelly gets a mention.

We move on to the explosion by Tucker Carlson when a Danish scientist called out the absurdity of media bias and industry corruption. Staying with politics, it's on to the absurdity of anti-Zionism...you'll see.

Finally, we remember Brody Stevens and discuss the inexplainable absurdity of mental illness. Rounded out we say goodbye to George St. Pierre and run down his absurd resume.

A little longer show that the previous few but we cover a lot. Enjoy.

Episode 72 we're talking about the impact of social media on our brains and introducing a challenge for all listeners of the podcast to reduce the unnecessary use of their mobile phones to 1 hour per day.
