    Irrational Discourse

    The Irrational Discourse podcast delves into topics ranging from the benign to the not-so-benign, in an inquisitive, respectful, and non-judgmental manner, with the somewhat naïve hope of restoring into our society a little logic, reason, civility, intellectual humility, compassion, inclusiveness, and rational debate.

    If we are all more willing to questions our own beliefs, recognize the magnitude of what we don’t know or understand, confront our personal biases, and to swallow that little red pill and accept the possibility that our core beliefs might just be wrong, then maybe we can make the world a better place.

    All we need is love, determination, and a little help from our friends.

    The Best Sci-Fi Movies of All Time (1-5) Oct 25, 2022
    Show notes

    We conclude season 1 of the Irrational Discourse podcast by breaking down the 5 greatest sci-fi movies of all time. While we fully recognize our own imperfections, we sincerely look forward to an off-season peppered with emails from the sci-fi faithful pointing out - in grotesque detail - the fallibility of our conclusions.


    The Best Sci-Fi Movies of All Time (6-10) Oct 24, 2022
    Show notes

    Highly debatable, somewhat rational, and hopefully enjoyable, we decided to close out season one with a discussion on our top 10 sci-fi movies of all time. In this episode, we cover #10 down to #6, and likely incur the wrath of our fellow nerds and geeks worldwide.


    Life Lessons from the Marvel Universe Sep 20, 2022
    Show notes

    (Not Explicit) Are superhero movies simply pure entertainment, or do some also present us with life lessons that we can learn from if we delve deep enough and look into the actions and attitudes of our favorite characters? Our guest co-host Joshua again joins us to discuss some of the more meaningful lessons we can learn from the MCU movies.


    Existential Risks - Climate Change Sep 06, 2022
    Show notes

    Is climate change a hoax, or is humanity on the verge of bringing about its own extinction. From carbon dioxide to bovine flatulence, we discuss the various aspects of climate change and global warming in an effort to simplify a highly complex system to better understand the impact we're having on the only planet we can live on today.


    Irrational Q&A Aug 16, 2022
    Show notes

    Our first Q&A session, covering questions from our listeners on all episodes through Sci-Fi Science, Part 2, with Chris and I being schooled a few times in the process.


    Existential Risks - Artificial Intelligence Aug 01, 2022
    Show notes

    A.I. has the potential to convey unimaginable benefits to humanity, if it doesn't eradicate all of us first. From recursive learning gaming programs to benevolent A.I. dictators to paperclip machines gone rogue, we discuss our technological progress towards the singularity and possible outcomes if things don't go exactly as we'd like. (Corrected Audio File)


    Existential Risks - Asteroids Jul 19, 2022
    Show notes

    Earth races around the sun at 67,000 MPH in a solar system full of debris left over from its formation 4.6 billion years ago. We've had countless encounters with these remnants throughout our history, with devastating effects to life on the planet. In this episode we discuss the threat these objects pose to humanity, what we're doing to mitigate the risks, and the damage these objects can inflict upon the world if we're not successful in doing so.


    Existential Risks - Nuclear Weapons Jul 10, 2022
    Show notes

    Have reductions in the global nuclear arsenals of the world's superpowers minimized the threat we pose to our continued existence, or are we still on the brink of self destruction?


    An Introduction to Existential Risks Jul 02, 2022
    Show notes

    For 200,000 years, our species has been vulnerable to natural threats with the potential to eliminate humanity. Over the past 100 years, our technological advancements have reached a point where we now pose an anthropogenic risk to ourselves. From asteroids and A.I., to nuclear weapons and climate change, we discuss some of the known kill mechanisms that can bring about the extinction of our species and what, if anything, we can do to mitigate the risk.


    Sci-Fi Science, Part 2 Jun 22, 2022
    Show notes

    We continue to "geek out" on a few of the most popular sci-fi series' of the past 5 decades, wrapping up with a dive into the science and physics of Star Trek and The Expanse.
