Humans flatter themselves with their complicated theories about themselves . Maybe it's a symptom of our craving for significance within the expanding universe. In reality we are cavemen and forgettin... more

November 03, 2017Harassment Where Is The Balance? Is There Really A Covert Epidemic Or Are The Media The Real Harassers?Is there really a covert epidemic of harassment or are the true harassers the media of our senses and of the men they make their victims? Have the media found another profitable crusade of political correctness? An insult to our senses. We take an optimistic view that common sense has and always will prevail in the understanding of the rules of the evolutionary male female game of giver and receiver of attention respectively with a dose of humour and understanding in both sides. For those far rarer cases than the media would have us believe which are genuine then the law needs to be equal. In other words anonymity on both sides and equal sanction for the perpetrator and also for any false accusers. So we say we put our trust in common sense of the people and let's have some legal balance. Perhaps an entrepreneurial legal firm will take a class action law suit against the media in the many cases of unjustly ruined lives for the sake of the media's balance sheet....more29minPlay
October 27, 2017Political Correctness. What Is It? Do We Need It, Is It Dangerous?We introduce a special guest today to accompany us on our discussion about political correctness. We discuss what it means. Misconceptions include being tactful. In reality it is a tool of societal disintegration where nursery rhymes are being re written in the name of gender neutrality. Whereas all this does is neuter order and structure in society. Nobody is allowed to even suggest there are differences amongst the sexes or races but that is what makes us who we are. We do however have the same rights. Political correctness is therefore a tool for the misinformed to keep them occupied or those with an agenda for use as camouflage. It hides under the mantle of respectability of politics in so doing degrading that institution further than it already has been. Instead we explain the importance of parallel concepts of professionalism and duty which both are concepts of strict structure and are essential to order in society and as such are the opposite of political correctness which is the Trojan Horse of chaos....more40minPlay
October 20, 2017Abuse Of Power. Who Does It And WhyHow do abuses of power such as we have seen flagrantly with Harvey Weinstein come about? How is this allowed throughout different societies socially politically religiously and why do the masses out up with it yet what makes some of these institutions such as communism and Harvey Weinstein seemingly so impregnable suddenly crumble. We provide hypotheses based on an understanding of the rules of human behaviour that we have derived....more35minPlay
October 17, 2017Hilary Clinton Why She Failed To Become President And Why She Is Desperate ToHilary Clinton is today interviewed by Graham Norton. Why is she desperate to become President? Why is did she loose against Trump. The issue of likeability as with Harvey Weinstein raises its head. For Hilary is the need to become President a form of self validation in the face of her husband's infidelity? Perhaps it would be easier for her to take responsibility and sort things out first so Bill stops looking at Michelle Obama's rear end. Is this part of a growing pattern where Presidents are men married to women who wear the trousers. See France and Austria!...more20minPlay
October 17, 2017Women In Entertainment, Harvey Weinstein's Need For CharmWhat is the truth about Harvey Weinstein? Can we really trust anything actresses (or the media) say as they have clearly already demonstrated a compulsion to act in their own vested interest. If so why is this happening to Harvey Weinstein right now? Afterall this type of behaviour is endemic in the entertainment industry. We simplify everything and explain two basic rules of human behaviour. 1: People do unto you what you let them. 2. It's largely not what you do but how you do it....more35minPlay
October 06, 2017Why Aren't Families Looking After Their Elderly Relatives?Why aren't families looking after their elderly? Are people too selfish? Is it their fault or is it just not possible given the pressures of modern living and the fractured family networks in our instant gratification society. This is another symptom of social dysfunction from the corrosive farce of democracy and instant gratification where society thinks it's acceptable that a Prime Minister giving a seminal speach should be handed a P45 by a comedian. The main issue here is therefore one of the necessity for correct leadership and how too much autonomy is just a sign of a week leadership and the folly of political correctness that leads to John Lewis only stocking gender neutral toddler clothes. Unthinkable a year ago but unfortunately reality now. Therefore don't blame the people fix our leadership and fix society and people will always follow....more45minPlay
October 03, 2017Why Are Professional Women Finding It Hard To Find Men? Should They Even Be At Work?Why are professional women having difficulty finding relationships? Do men want smart women? Women are doing better at school and at work than men. Is this leading to role reversal? Or should women be at work at all ? Does this damage fidelity? Should they have the choice to have a family without worrying about economic necessity? Does the government have a responsibility to help maintain the nuclear family?...more30minPlay
September 22, 2017Depression In Society, Is It Illness Or Unhappiness? Do We Need More Doctors And Antidepressants Or Is The Media And Politics To Blame?We take a necessarily very provocative and revealing approach today to the single greatest growing illness in today's society. We question whether it is true and what the problem really is. It's not more doctors and medication that we need but healthier life styles. Instead politicians and media through vested interest continue to feed us quick fixes and are responsible for the increasing sickness of society symptoms of which include depression , failing physical health and home grown terrorism . An apocalypse is coming . We discuss some real solutions. (We do not give medical advice. Antidepressants are essential for some people and if you are not sure you should immediately go and see your doctor)...more32minPlay
September 08, 2017Diversity. Is It Good, And Is An Ominous Side Effect Political Correctness?Is diversity a good thing? Surely families , teams, companies, countries need unity and harmony not difference brought by the diversity of multiculturalism. We discuss how a multiracial society is not necessarily the same as a multicultural society. Brexit is an opportunity for Britain to become more British by emphasizing the British culture and identify in statute which every citizen has to unite behind to promote harmony and prosperity....more41minPlay
September 03, 2017Are We In Control Of Our Lives Or Drones Of The Giants Of Modern Consumerist Society?Are we in control of our lives? Do we actually have a say of how we Iive our lives or are we at the mercy of the giant corporations driving the engine of our modern consumerist society? One thing is for sure ; we are not happy. Are we just fodder ,Matrix style, to keep the wheels of capitalism rolling? Yet we have free speach, political correctness , a free press. Surely these are positive signs that we have a voice? If not how do we cope? We gird our loins over coffee and seek mutual enlightenment....more46minPlay
