Politics and Religion. We’re not supposed to talk about that, right? Wrong! We only say that nowadays because the loudest, most extreme voices have taken over the whole conversation. Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religion are too important to let ”the screamers” drown out the rest of us and would love some engagin ...

Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

"Come on," I hear you say. "They must be taking the piss now."
"I know they claim to 'serve up hot takes like you wouldn't believe', but charity? Really? They had a go at CHARITY? Someone needs to finally put a stop to these edgy socialists who pathetically think it's progressive to be 'controversial'. This isn't helping anyone. What could possibly be wrong with CHARITY?"
Join Glen, Helen and Matt as they skewer the do-gooders and expose the charity myth. They talk about the efficacy of charity, the scam that is philanthropy, and the unholy marriage of money and morals that is the latest trend of 'Effective Altruism'. What is the role of charity in our society? How does philanthropy fundamentally undermine democracy? And when WILL Glen decide to go to therapy?
