COLEMAN HUGHES: Live At The Festival of Dangerous Ideas 1:02:47

3d ago1:02:47

1:02:47

Should revenge have any place in our politics? 54:19

18h ago54:19

54:19

There is something undeniably satisfying about revenge. When we feel we have been aggrieved, harmed or humiliated, it is natural to want payback. In ancient Greece, to inflict such an injury was conceived of as incurring a debt — and the only way to make the perpetrator “whole” was to have the injury repaid in kind. The paradox — as Socrates, Sopho…

PREMIUM: “American Political Violence” with BBC Foreign Correspondent Nick Bryant 24:51

7d ago24:51

24:51

Is political violence “unAmerican”? Or is it as American as Thomas Jefferson, who wrote that "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants"? Nick Bryant is one of the BBC’s greatest foreign correspondents. He has a doctorate in American politics from Oxford University and lived for years in Washingt…

Can democracy survive the perfect storm of disinformation? 53:22

8d ago53:22

53:22

Just weeks before a US presidential election, a combination of political mendacity, the perverse incentives offered by social media platforms, and opportunism on the part of content creators/consumers, have come together to form a perfect storm. The tragic irony is that the devastating consequences of these forces have become apparent in the afterm…

What is “populism” – and what kind of problem does it pose? 54:08

15d ago54:08

54:08

After the election of Donald Trump in 2016 and the outcome of the Brexit referendum, “populism” became the catch-all diagnosis for everything the ails democratic politics. But its polemical use has tended to obscure rather than clarify the meaning of the term.Von Australian Broadcasting Corporation

What is it that makes “negative gearing” such a divisive tax policy? 53:30

21d ago53:30

53:30

The policy of negative gearing — which gives the owners of investment properties an unlimited ability to deduct losses from their overall taxable income — has come to symbolise the disparity between the different ways Australians see home ownership: for some, it is a means of wealth creation; for others, it represents the ever-receding promise of s…

"The Alcoholism Myth" with Katie Herzog 1:29:24

24d ago1:29:24

1:29:24

Do you drink too much? If there was a magic pill that made you not want a second drink, would you take it? You’d at least expect to have heard of it. That’s what the journalist Katie Herzog thought as she sat through AA meetings, feeling like a failure for boozing. Then, she found naltrexone. Josh hasn’t had a drink in four years after having a dif…

30:15

Imagine being an innocent YouTuber, tricked into receiving millions of dollars from Russia just because you're a Putin hack.

“Truths that lie too deep for taint”: Wilfred Owen’s war poetry in our blood-soaked present 53:18

29d ago53:18

53:18

The war poetry of Wilfred Owen refuses the comfort of hollow consolation in response to the mass loss of life — it also urges the sacrifice of the kind of bellicose pride that sees nothing but territorial gain and national self-interest, and is prepared to offer up the lives of the young to these ends. In a time of heightened violence and bloodshed…

PREMIUM: "Free Speech" On Twitter with Andrew Lowenthal 27:58

1M ago27:58

27:58

Can governments regulate “misinformation”? Or is that just a pretext for controlling what you can say? Were “the Twitter Files” a bombshell revelation of censorship, or a paranoid beat-up? How should Big Tech have grappled with issues like Russia, Covid, and the FBI? Andrew Lowenthal worked with Matt Taibbi for months on the Twitter Files. He helpe…
