"The road to tyranny, we must never forget begins with the destruction of the truth". From ancient times, humanity experienced brutal regimes, created by the mad visions of certain men who decided to take their ideas too far. In this episode, we discussed the relationship between man and power, the past and present dictators' mindsets, how to guard ourselves against allowing such men in power, and many more. Does absolute power corrupt absolutely?

"We who live forever can know no courage, nor do we love enough to give our lives." In this episode, we are joined by the charming author of the Slavic mythology-inspired fantasy Winternight trilogy and kids' horror series Small Spaces, Katherine Arden (and her dog Moose from time to time). We discussed art and the writing process, how she entered the writing world, and how ideas are born from boredom. The reception she got from her professor and the perception of fantasy books in Slavic cultures. Outta nowhere we even discussed soviet architecture, dogs and cats, furniture, and snowy days.

The correlation between economics and happiness is a phenomenon that fairly recently caught the attention and interest of economists and regular people alike, but happiness was discussed as crucial by Aristotle, Thomas Jefferson, all the way to Richard Easterlin. We try to measure happiness, and we even created an index for it, but the truth is we still do not know what makes a truly happy society or individual. We try to answer what part of happiness coexists with money, can global happiness even be achieved, and whether are economists actually scientists who should define this phenomenon.

Check out our thoughts and predictions for this exciting event.
Donnovan Bennett shares why Canada has been a football country for a long time, what the atmosphere was, and what it meant to be a part of the World Cup in Qatar.
