    Live Thoughtfully, Not Forever

    In this episode Jay and Johmie hit a wide range of topics including a shared frustration with the comedian Bill Maher, a discussion about what motivates some super rich individuals to try and live forever and a deep dive into how we define the nature of our individual existences and, what else, the meaning of that existence.

    Rage, Rest, Repeat

    After a sorely needed mental health break, Jay and Johmie hopped back in the studio to share their rage and indignation both at the hypocritical nature of our current governance and also at the seeming lack of fight on the other end of the aisle. During which, our resident atheist tries to cut Christians who voted for Trump some slack while our resident Christian is having none of it. Finally, they discuss what they do to keep themselves mentally healthy during these stressful times and how to stay optimistic.  Music; 26 Golden Horn, by Joakim Karud  SoundCloud: soundcloud.com/joakimkarud YouTube: youtube.com/@JoakimKarud

    Well that was misplaced optimism!

    Speaking for the first time since Donald Trump won re-election, we dig into what his upcoming second term means for our country, if there was anything the Democrats could have done better and what future prospects there are for the left. We also allow ourselves to vent and mourn over what feels like a grim upcoming few years while trying to find whatever silver linings we can in the resulting chaos.  Music; Song: 26 Golden Horn, by Joakim Karud  SoundCloud: soundcloud.com/joakimkarud YouTube: youtube.com/@JoakimKarud

    We're the Least Interesting X-Men

    Mere hours before the 2024 Presidential election grinds to an end, we take a look back at the early days of the Harris campaign and discuss what constitutes a hopeful political message. We also discuss the pros/cons of generational wealth along with the best ways in which to harness such power for good, the sneaky good food scene that Philadelphia offers, and the ways in which mental illness and struggles can simultaneously be a benefit to life.  Music: 26 Golden Horn, by Joakim Karud,  SoundCloud: soundcloud.com/joakimkarud,  YouTube: youtube.com/@JoakimKarud
