#175 Why Politics is NOT downstream from Culture w/ Dr Graham Shearer
Cary has words with Dr Graham Shearer about politics following his talk entitled: “Contemporary Politics and the Crisis of the Spiritual Sense”.

Great podcast
A few minutes in to my first listen, enjoying it already!
Love it!
One of my favourite podcasts, entertaining, engaging and thought provoking look at a variety of issues.
Always interesting and provocative
I have been listening to this Podcast since it’s start and it is - and always has been! - one of my favourites. The ‘words’ are accessible without being trivial or patronising (huzzah!), and Cooper and Cary are actually quite funny too. They’ve cut out a lovely little niche for themselves in the genre.
