    Episode 9: 2021 and the US Capitol Raid

    Not even a week into 2021 and the previously unthinkable has happened once more: hundreds of pro-Trump protestors, clad in MAGA hats and waving Donald Trump flags, force their way into the US Capitol building. Some even went as far as barging into the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, casually taking pictures with their feet on her desk and her workspace ruined.  But it could happen here in the Philippines? And what are the long term consequences on US politics? Guest: UP Law student Kobe, on the show for thee 2nd time and once again providing his insights on the craziest of times

    Episode 6: More About Politics

    Politics is too broad a topic to limit to just one episode. In episode 6 of the Inordinary Things podcast, the show tackles the act of "getting into" politics, the flaws in the Philippine voting system, the rigors of studying law, why Senators have more power than Congressmen/women, and a whole lot more. Special thanks to Kobe for guesting.

    Episode 5: Let's Talk Politics

    "Let's not go there." This is the all-too common reply when someone wants to bring up politics in casual conversation, but why shouldn't we? In this episode, we'll talk politics in general: getting into it, Trump's America, Duterte's Philippines, and so much more. Guest: Enzo Manzano
