Left Unread

This week, Cam explores the long and fascinating history of humans messing around with their own pee. For medicinal purposes, not kink stuff. Because people do that too, obviously. But that’s not what this is about. This is about the people that think it's good for you, which is apparently a lot of you. Awesome.   We recently started a Patreon account to help fund future growth and development of the show.

This week, we examine the ongoing war in Ukraine, and discuss the changes in the outlook on that war since it began. We also take a deeper look into the ongoing horrors taking place in Gaza, and explore the human toll conflict in both regions has exacted.  We just launched a new Patreon, which is very exciting! We appreciate your support as we attempt to upgrade and make our next 100 episodes even better than the first 100.

We're officially in triple digits, baby! We got together to talk a bit about our mascot, and also to announce the formation of our new Patreon, which we're super excited about! We're looking to grow the show in a few cool ways, but we need your help if we're going to make that happen. More details within, and to come in future weeks, but you can find the page here if you want to check it out: www.patreon.com/leftunread Find us on Beyonce's Internet: @leftunreadpod @poorfidalgo @gluten_yung Email enquiries: leftunreadpod@gmail.com Theme courtesy of Interesting Times Gang: itgang.bandcamp.com

Since the time that this episode was recorded on 13 October 2023, the situation in Gaza has ramped up considerably in both scale and scope. As the death toll and wanton destruction continue to rise, it remains clear that we must remain firm in our opposition to oppression, racism, religious discrimination, and genocide in all their forms. Regardless of the perpetrator or the target, Left Unread stands resolutely with all those combating the nascent evils of colonialism and fighting for the right to exist. Free Palestine.

Welcome back, vaunted initiate, to the ancient mysteries of Mithras. Join us this week as we dive deeper into the doctrines and rites of Mithras, and also briefly examine Mithraic revivalism.

We're talkin' jet crashes, video games, Jeffrey Epstein, basically everything BUT what we said we'd be talkin' about. It was a fun one, though.

This week we return to our ongoing series on the rise of Genghis Khan and the forging of the Great Mongol Empire. This episode will focus primarily on the process by which Temujin, the newly minted Genghis Khan, forged the state that would administer his new realm. What does every state need? That’s right: laws! And don’t you worry, Genghis has a few ideas about how things ought to run. Also, we will discuss the rapid rise and brutal fall of the Khan’s personal shaman, Teb Tengri. Buckle up, folks, it’s a good’un. Follow Teb Tengri's Brothers here: @leftunreadpod @poorfidalgo @gluten_yung All email enquiries will be received at the following electronic mail inbox: leftunreadpod@gmail.com Theme courtesy of the inimitable Interesting Times Gang: itgang.bandcamp.com And as always, thanks for listening, tell your friends ;)

Folks, we are re-entering the depths of the North Atlantic today to discuss a recent deep dive in Vanity Fair on the doomed OceanGate submersible Titan, its…ahem…enigmatic CEO and pilot Stockton Rush, and the implosion years in the making. We also follow this trail to some other gruesome events below the epipelagic.
