    The Congo and Consumerism

    Just barely made it in time for the annual upload but we persist! On today's episode, The Democratic Republic of Congo is our case study for this year's flavour of social issue: Consumerism. We've got history, psychology, some (necessary) call-outs... All of the ingredients you've come to love in the Venting Sesh pie. Start off the New Year with a reflection on the brutal cost hidden behind our everyday conveniences. Countdown the ways systems protect profit over people, and maybe take a long look at what's in your hands while you're listening.

    Sudan and Silence

    Quiet down and listen carefully, because this episode is going to require your undivided attention. We're gonna preach about the humanitarian crisis in Sudan—an issue that’s been met with deafening silence on the global stage. Hear all about the power dynamics, media apathy, and the selective prioritization of human suffering. The kind of stuff that makes you wanna cover your ears... Sudan isn’t just a headline; it’s a lens through which we examine deeper systemic issues. In today’s episode, we get into the information you need to raise your own voice and speak on what it really means to be silent about Sudan. So clear your throat, and your hearing holes, because we're gonna get loud. Follow me on @ventingseshpodcast for updates on episode releases, the link to the accompanying google doc, and more.

    Palestine and her Politics

    It's time for your annual dose of VSP! Sit still, cause this one's gonna be a tough pill to swallow for some of you... We talk settler colonialism, apartheid, international response, anti-semitism. All things that will probably get this episode flagged. But we don't care, 'cause on this podcast, we challenge the politicization of human rights. This isn't the first time I use Palestine as a case study into a deeper issue, but in today's episode we veer a little further from the usual arguments. So prepare to listen, question, and reflect... And bring a tall glass of water to help it all go down smoothly. Follow me on @ventingseshpodcast for updates on episode releases, the link to the accompanying google doc, and more.

    Tin Foil, Triangles, and Tycoons

    I'm baaack! We commence today's session with a shallow dive into my life this past year. I then seamlessly transition to conspiracy theories: what they are and how they manifest. I conclude with a discussion on the pharmaceutical industry and its various problems.  Saying that "it's been a while" is a bit of an understatement, but you can't get mad at me because I made this episode a two-for-one. I hope you enjoy these 40 minutes of conspiring, theorizing, and everything in between. Don't say I never give you anything.

    Here Lies The Artist

    I'm happy to announce that I have returned from my hibernation just in time to release this gem of an episode. Consider this your early non-denominational holiday gift! Today's session begins with a not-so-brief explanation of my absence and ends with a discussion of problematic artists and what we can do with them. I describe—then criticize—early theories of art analysis. Later, I consider modern approaches, and I conclude by calling myself out. No one is safe this episode, so strap in and prepare your eulogy for the deceased.

    Hot Rock in Space

    She finally emerges after a six week hiatus to... Talk about the environment? That’s right listeners, this week’s session is all about the dreaded climate crisis. It’s a tough one because it feels so inescapable, but fret not, we’ll get through it together. Just hold my virtual hand as we walk through the galaxies of my childhood, the universe of climate science, and the systems of environmental injustice. We’ll end our tour with some of the silly things alien-hosts say about our current conditions and some things we can do to cool down this overheating space rock we inhabit.

    Beauty is Pain

    Strap in besties cause this week's session covers a host of topics! I continue my discussion of beauty by considering where contemporary standards come from, how that source contributes to colourism and featurism, the things people do to acquire such a coveted thing, and how social media plays into this whole mess. Like I said, a lot to cover. Brace yourself. Follow me on @ventingseshpodcast for updates on episode releases, the link to the accompanying google doc, and more.

    Tell Me I'm Pretty

    This week on Venting Sesh we determine: are you beautiful? I'm kidding! Kind of. In this episode, I consider the definition and standards of beauty through a bio-psycho-social model--which leads to discussions about pretty privilege and the halo effect. It's a seemingly simple topic, but the devil's in the details.  Follow me on @ventingseshpodcast for updates on episode releases, the link to the accompanying google doc, and more.
