Ep 46: The Problem of Intelligence- IQ and Its Detractors (Guest: Nathan Cofnas)
Nathan Cofnas is a heretic. It's not a title nor a career path he has chosen, rather, he has had the bad taste of delving into the wrong subject at the wrong time. Because in a world where social sciences and polite society has decided that humankind is essentially fully moldable beings, constructed as the post-moderns would have it - to study the subject of IQ is not only a poor choice, but a dangerous one at that. Delving even further into the dark arts, Cofnas field of study is that of race and intelligence.Here be dragons. What does his research really show? What should we do with that information?This and more in our latest episode. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep 45: The Submission of France? (Guests: Florence Bergeaud-Blackler, Fanny Forsberg Lundell)
For a long time, France was seen as an alternative model to the prevailing anglo-saxon one - where New York and London represented the liberal dream of the melting pot, Paris stood bent, but unbowed, for a distinct French republican idea.Now, with the Middle East alight once again the relationship the West has with immigrants from that region again comes into focus. The idea of french republicanism, the last vestige of old french glories now seems cracked if not shattered. Republican laicité is challenged from within by Islamists and the left. Is it too late to save the secular Republic? Should we even try?Florence Bergeaud-Blackler is a French anthropologist at CNRS who has done extensive research about integration and the activities of political islamism and especially the Muslim Brotherhood in France.Fanny Forsberg Lundell is professor of French at Stockholm University who has recently published ”Kameleonter och kosmopoliter ”(2023) a book comparing French and Swedish integration.

Ep 44: Thinking Beyond the Climate Catastrophy (Guest: Dougald Hine)
The end of the human race will be that it will eventually die of civilization.— Ralph Waldo EmersonDougald Hine is not your typical thinker on Climate Change, Crisis, Hoax - whatever your flavor or politics happen to be. When many of his friends became radicalized and formed Extinction Rebellion he took the road less traveled and ended up demanding that we ask fundamentally different questions rather than demand radical answers.Questions like "What the hell is being done in the name of progress anyway?"Doesn't matter if you are a believer, skeptic, sinner or pillar-saint. Dougald Hine will challenge you to think differently about Catastrophe, Climate and Civilisation.We had a very pleasant discussion with him about changing one's mind. About the relationship between Romanticism and the Environmental Movement. About paths not taken.Oh and how Andreas Malm saved him by hating his guts. Hosted on Acast.

Ep 43: The View from the Road (Guest: The Lorryist)
Omar Bradley famously quipped about professionals talking about logistics instead of strategy, so we figured we'd talk to someone literally driving globalization for a living. The Lorryist gives us his view from the driving seat. From the possibility of AI and Elon Musk stealing his job to running the gauntlet of Calais and coming face to face with the anarchy and deprivation of European migration policy. What's the most dangerous thing in the world? A Trucker with an Audible subscription. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
