    Harrowhark the Ninth pt.1 and Unreliable Narrators

    We finally made it! Got it in before Alecto comes out, so you gotta give us credit for that! Truly, this is a labor of love. No after dark, just going extra long for everyone, the way Gideon would have wanted it. Enjoy!

    Hazbin Hotel and Critiquing Universalism

    Once again, I want to open with "I'm sorry" for all of this. If you're considering condemning us to content creator hell for our takes, first consider the question: What Would Charlie Do? Charlie would say, despite our worst takes, we are still redeemable! So, we're doing the first two seasons of Hazbin Hotel and doing a 200 level discussion on universalism about salvation and why it may be the best option for believers but it's still a legitimizing myth. Please don't hate us!

    Sinners and The Color Line

    Hell yeah, been fixing to do cover this new hotness since the moment I saw it. Now that it's widely available we can talk about all the ways it messes with the color line, what it says about solidarity politics, how it sets up the invention of bluegrass, and what the vampires really represent! Plus, keep your eyes out for a very related NASA!

    Death's End and Daoist Ethics Pt.2

    Here we are at the end of our interminable journey! Millions of years in the blink of many hours. Seen some unbelievable stuff (4d space) and some super believable stuff (gender essentialism) and in the end we've really seen what happens when we stretch the scale of ethics to the breaking point. So, finally, we look at what this all says about Chinese philosophy, particularly what it means to be a Daoist sage. Enjoy!

    The Dark Forest and Dark Forest Theory pt.2

    The darker the forest, the brighter the philosophy! Despite all odds, we press on against the horrors of both the fictional and our real universe to talk about what happens when you try to do sociology AT SCCCCCCAAAAAAALLLLLLEEEEEE! Besides parsing the end of the book, we parse the precepts of Dark forest and whether it holds water, what are plausible objections, and what does this tell us about the reality of conflicts at smaller scales.

    Silo and Longterm Paternalism

    Coming out of our Silo and we're not doing fine! The air is still toxic and we're losing our minds! We're back at it with season two of Silo, and we're discussing the ethics and practicality of maintaining a system like this, as well as discussing the ableist implications of a common trope.
