What makes something "authentic"?
Is it its uniqueness, that which it resembles, or does it correspond to a particularly ideal subject? We as humans respond innately to authenticity. It informs our judgments and our actions.
Join us as we discuss NFTs, news media, trophies, and film, in our exploration of authenticity.
QUOTE: “Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.” ~ Margaret Thatcher

Ep.62: The New Gods
Jordan takes this episode to examine something that has been on his mind as of late. We have new gods and we are making new ones everyday through modern story-telling and the creation of legends.
We discuss what makes a myth, how we tell them, and the impact they have on our lives.
QUOTE: "After all, I believe that legends and myths are largely made of 'truth'." ~ J. R. R. Tolkien, The Letters of J. R. R. Tolkien

Ep.61: Public Good
Today Kris makes a case for government sponsored programs. This is not a narrow topic as allocation of resources is always a complicated mess of interests. Universities, corporations, the media, the general public, and those finding themselves at the bottom, all take part.
Join us for this debate as we discuss what might work to lift up the less fortunate in our society so that we may all benefit.
