Context is lacking, and frankly, it's a problem. Modern Context is a podcast that delves into the stories behind the headlines–the important people involved, but also the everyday people being affected; the socio-political landscapes influencing them, but also the geo-political landscapes; the ideas being pushed, and the thoughts and feelings those ideas invoke. In each episode, we'll explore one topic in as much detail as I think a single podcast episode can handle, uncovering the nuance hidden between the cold, hard facts, all in my attempt to put this world into context. I'll do the hard part for you, but you're encouraged to continue the journey beyond what I give you. Take what you learn here and keep going. Keep reading. Keep listening. Keep searching. I'm just getting you started.

Will Ireland Ever Reunite? Part One
<div>Ireland is a place that's full of lore, culture, and history, and many Americans can trace their roots back to the island. However, the island is also known for enduring centuries of political turmoil, most (or all?) of which came from their neighbors, the English. After suffering through colonization efforts, cultural erasure, exploitation, and even (debatably, but not really) an attempted genocide, the Irish lost a portion of their island to the United Kingdom. Now, Northern Ireland has, for the first time, shown signs of possibly wanting to leave the UK and reunite with the Republic of Ireland.</div> <div> </div> <div> </div> <p> </p>

The Duniverse, Storytelling, and The Meaning of Life
<div>I've been reading Dune lately, and while the capitalistic undertones of the story are hardly subtle, it got me thinking about the ways stories and mythologies inform culture and society. In this episode, we'll explore the meaning of life and the way fiction can help us unravel the mysteries of our own existence.</div> <p> </p>
