Guns
1月12日
I am anti-gun and am even more appalled at the gun culture in the US after listening to this podcast. I always get a chilling feeling whenever I drive by gun shops. Now I am even more repulsed from knowing the lobbying and “educating” that takes place in them. I know gun ownership, even gun safety, are extremely complicated issues which are virtually impossible to solve any day soon. I pray to God that my family and future grandchildren will forever be free from gun violence.
Terrific - informative and fun

Laurie must be a wonderful teacher. He has a good sense of humor but more important he discusses topics in a way that offers a fresh perspective. History and sociology are combined with music to make episodes memorable. The recent episodes on CoVid and Freedom were intriguing. I hope he continues his podcast.
Great content - horrible sound

I enjoy the guests and the topics (albeit I would prefer longer and more substantial conversations with those incredible thinkers). Sound quality, though, is very bad. Simply disrespectful to listeners… there is technology in place to mitigate outside noises, to level the volume of the host and a speaker etc. Not sure what might be a problem for such a respectable platform like BBC
A Half Hour of Interesting Sociological Content
2021/09/19
Presenter Laurie Taylor takes up needle and thread to weave a tapestry of reflections on the diverse states of human affairs. The various strands of thought provoking material consist of insightful guests discussing their studies and resulting papers or books, while Laurie guides the conversation with questions eliciting the most colorful and textured responses designed to give us a better view of the big picture. His jovial personality adds a friendly and comforting level of uplift to what can often be challenging ideas, behaviours, and incidents from history or the present day. Sometimes the musical interludes and humorous takes on aspects of our world that Laurie employs can be just the right touch to regain a little balance and perhaps harmony to our thinking, which is very much allowed and appreciated. The artful crafting of episodes also helps inspire me to prepare better meals as I am often cooking while listening to the program. I've never cooked better food than while listening to Thinking Allowed. Thanks for all the great programs Laurie Taylor and Thinking Allowed Crew, nicely done.
