Moral Bankruptcy
Manage episode 293797299 series 2427198
On this week's episode I talk about the the recent discovery of a mass grave with 215 Indigenous children at the site of a former residential school. Everyone is rightly disgusted, so why are people acting as if some people are not, and why did a tweet comparing this to the tragic bus crash with the Humboldt Bronco's go viral? Why do people feel the need to compare tragedies? I also talk about anti semitic hate crimes on the rise, but the New York Times still focusing on anti Asian hate crimes while only referencing the shooting that took place in Georgia.
My guest this week is Aaron Berg. We talk about Israel/Palestine, Covid, the U.S and Canada, and comedy in general.

All of that and more! Plus the "Tweets of the Week" and the "Ground News Blindspot of the Week" segments.
