AS233: The Gender Wage Gap Apr 18, 2016

Show notes

In the spirit of Equal Pay Day which happened recently, I’ve got Miss Bea Haven from Promoting Secular Feminism on to talk about gender inequality in income. Is the 79 cents figure a myth? well… sort of but also sort of not… You’d better listen to see what I mean! If you enjoyed Miss Bea, … Continue reading AS233: The Gender Wage Gap →

AS232: Finding Uncommon Ground Apr 14, 2016

Today’s episode was scheduled to be a Tommentary, but after a back and forth with a listener by the name of Ben Young, I decided to have him on for a little chat in place of my normal monologuing! We touch on a number of different topics involving the infamous Gad Saad story, blocking people … Continue reading AS232: Finding Uncommon Ground →

AS231: Dr. Kevin Folta, Part 2 Apr 11, 2016

Show notes

It’s part 2 with Kevin! Lots more on GMOs and labeling controversies. Also, I found out WE AREN’T EVEN USING FISH GENES. My mind is blown. I’ve been defending something we weren’t even doing. Though I still maintain it would be totally fine if we were doing it!

AS230: Dr. Kevin Folta Apr 07, 2016

Show notes

In light of all this GMO debate, Dr. Kevin Folta was kind enough to hop on the show and educate us! Kevin is the professor and chairman of the horticultural sciences department at the University of Florida. He doesn’t like the word “advocate,” but he has been very vocal about GMOs and dispelling the misconceptions … Continue reading AS230: Dr. Kevin Folta →

AS229: No Straw Men Allowed Apr 04, 2016

Show notes

It’s a Tommentary episode! Last week I let a straw man argument get by me and I even encouraged it. So, I spend the first part of this Tommentary trying to right that wrong. I never want to perpetuate straw man arguments if I can help it! From there, I take us on a look … Continue reading AS229: No Straw Men Allowed →

AS228: Should We Label GMOs? Mar 31, 2016

Show notes

In today’s show, I’ve got two siblings! We’ve got Melonnie, a listener of the show and someone wary of GMO products. Also on is Derek, her brother and a scientist who has some expertise on GMO foods. Will Melonnie’s concerns about labeling change Derek’s mind or will Derek be able to convince Melonnie that the technology … Continue reading AS228: Should We Label GMOs? →

AS226: Sarah Morehead Mar 24, 2016

Show notes

Sarah Morehead recently wrote a must-read article, which you can find here. It deals with something I also expressed an opinion about online, which is the disgusting positive reaction people seem to have over news of Jared Fogle being beaten in prison. It seems odd to see so many in the humanist community advocating extrajudicial punishment … Continue reading AS226: Sarah Morehead →

AS224: Tommentary Mar 17, 2016

Show notes

Fresh off a great interview, it’s time for some Tommenting! Lots of people asked if I was going to talk about Sam Harris and Omer Aziz, and while I’m definitely not doing a full review like I did with Maryam Namazie, I want to at least talk about some broad themes. So I do that, … Continue reading AS224: Tommentary →
