    Episode 57: 86 aka "the sad mecha anime"

    Episode 57 show notes Content Warning: This episode discusses the horrors of war, systemic racism, and trauma. Please use discretion while listening. In this episode of the Kinky Nerdy Poly Podcast, M and G dive deep into 86, a mecha anime that explores war, systemic racism, and the human spirit in a dystopian society. G shares why this anime ranks as one of their recent favorites (and why it is their "sad mecha anime"), and M reflects on what makes 86 so compelling with respect to its heavy themes. G and M tackle philosophical questions: What does it mean to challenge systemic injustices? How does trauma shape communities under duress? And what lessons can we draw from science fiction to confront our present-day challenges? Key topics include: What is 86?: A breakdown of the anime's premise, including the Republic of San Magnolia, the marginalized "86," and the robotic enemy Legion. The Role of War and Racism: How 86 uses science fiction to critique systemic racism, societal complicity, and the trauma of war. Character Analysis: Discussions about Major Vladilena "Lena" Milizé's savior complex and growth, and Shin "Undertaker" Nouzen's immense burden as the leader of Spearhead Squadron. Ethics of Autonomous Weapons: Timely reflections on the implications of AI and remotely controlled weapons in real-world warfare. Sources and Mentions from the Episode: 86 (anime adaptation) produced by A-1 Pictures, based on the light novel series by Asato Asato.

    Episode 55: Polyamorous comets (flying through the sky)

    Episode 55: Polyamorous Comets Show Notes In this episode of the Kinky Nerdy Poly (KNP) podcast, G and M explore the fascinating dynamics of comet relationships in polyamory. They offer a broad definition of what a comet partner is while recognizing that if you ask five polyamorous people what a comet is, you'll get ten different answers. Through personal experiences and insights, the KNP co-hosts discuss how these sporadic yet intense connections work. Highlights include an amusing description of having "a lot of comets in the sky" and the metaphor of planets watching comets pass by. Listeners will enjoy the blend of humor and heartfelt discussion as G and M navigate the complexities and joys of comet relationships. Quote from the episode and source: “A person that passes through your life repeatedly who is intense and awesome, and when gone you are still in contact with that person in some way, but they are not a continuous partner.” - Love Uncommon (https://loveuncommon.com/2019/06/13/comet/) Email: kinky.nerdy.poly@gmail.com Tumblr: http://www.knppodcast.tumblr.com The music in this episode is the Secret of Tiki Island by Kevin MacLeod and is licensed under Creative Commons 3.0.
