    College Degrees Are Overrated

    College Degrees Are Overrated

    "Back in my day..." The education system has changed quite a bit over the years, and job requirements with them. Employers all have their own way of filtering candidates, but what good is it to judge an applicant's worth based on simply having a degree or not if the degree doesn't apply to the job they're applying for? Why do retail workers and burger flippers have PhDs? Have degrees become too overrated and emphasized in this day and age? Join the Controcast with a new special guest debater as we discuss all of these things and more.

    Abortions Are Helpful

    Abortions Are Helpful

    We know this is a difficult topic, but sometimes we need to ask the hard questions. We are neither condemning nor supporting abortions here, simply looking at the facts; in what ways can an abortion potentially save the lives of the parent? In what situations does it do more good than harm? Can Abortions actually be helpful? Join us as we discuss this difficult but important topic!

    Imprisonment Should Only Be for Violent Crimes

    Imprisonment Should Only Be for Violent Crimes

    What is the purpose of prison? We aren't being cheeky, because this question is a large basis for our discussion this episode. Is prison just used as a punishment, or is it to protect good, law-abiding citizens from being hurt by criminals? Is it both? Regardless of the answer, should we be looking to tailor punishments to the crime instead of using prison as a catch-all for all crimes? Join the Controcast as we explore this maze of morality in crime and punishment.

    We're starting season two off with a bang and getting super controversial with this topic. We know it's a hot take, but hear us out as we delve into our personal experiences with religion and heavily debate the purpose of organized institutions centered on faith, and whether they are doing more harm than good due to the corruption that has been spreading amidst certain leadership.
