Here are the opening lines of every podcast:
"This podcast is about ideas, people and behaviors that are considered inappropriate, out-of-bounds, or 'beyond the pale'. It's about the things you're not supposed to talk about if you're a school teacher, a college professor, a businessman, a politician, a parent, a neighbor, or even a podcast host.
These are the things you're not supposed to say or even think if you're a liberal, conservative, or a good citizen. I interview a variety of people: they might be a journalist, or a professor; they might be a pornstar, or a drug dealer.
I want to expand the scope of what is possible to say in our society. I'm interested in people who make me think."

The part in italics seems to be screaming out to Steemians!
If you haven't heard of Thad before now, it might help to listen to some podcasts he was on before he started his own. That might help you understand better where he's coming from philosophically and politically. He's made many appearances on both The Joe Rogan Experience and The School Sucks Project. Those episodes are some of my favorites.
He has some interesting ideas, not all of which I agree with, but that's why I like him. He challenges me. His experiences within academia are also worth hearing about. He both affirms and disaffirms much of what you see in the media about universities.
If anyone has listened to these and has thoughts, good or bad, please share below.
Thanks! Happy listening.
