Podcasting Is Dead

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: a fond farewell. This is the last episode of Hear Me Out. And it comes at a volatile, strange time in the world of podcasting. Networks’ priorities have shifted, the money has shifted, and “success” means different things to different people. Nick Hilton of Podot and Future Proof joins us for a discussion about the future of podcasting… whether we’re in it or not. The Hear Me Out team is grateful, endlessly, to every single listener who’s sent us a note. We’re not sure how long the address will work, but if the show mattered to you, we’d love to read your emails: [email protected] Podcast production by Maura Currie, who owes many more things than this podcast to Celeste Headlee.

Presidential Pardons Need Reform

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: pardon interruption. What’s the purpose of the presidential pardon? Well, depends on who you ask — hypothetically, it’s meant for course-correction and honoring restorative justice. But presidents on both ends of the spectrum have used it for purposes that are distinctly not that. So do we need the pardon or do we need to get rid of it… and either way, what’s next? Kim Wehle joins us once again to talk about her new book, Pardon Power. Hear Me Out ends next week. So, before then, please feel free to email the show: [email protected] Podcast production by Maura Currie. Want more Hear Me Out?

There’s No Lesser-Evil Candidate

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: PSL (not the drink). Claudia de la Cruz cannot, mathematically, win the presidency. But she’s running anyway… because the two-party system doesn’t lend itself to real representation or the public interest. Claudia joins us to make the case for voting socialist, because the parties with all the power aren’t as different as they want you to think. We’ll also share an important update about the future of Hear Me Out at the end of the episode. After that, please feel free to email the show: [email protected] Podcast production by Maura Currie.

Schools Do Too Much (Often Badly)

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: sharpen up. Public schooling in this country has had a lot of champions — including some that you might not expect. But did we ever actually agree on what we wanted schools to do for society? Elizabeth Newcamp of Slate’s Care & Feeding joins us to argue for a reappraisal of the whole system… and what it means to educate.

Fact-Checks Make Audiences Suspicious

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: pants on fire. The fact-check is a critical tool in the journalist’s toolbox – and now more than ever, it’s a key part of the job. The problem is that it’s already hard to make the case that definitive “true and false” designations exist anymore… and, it turns out, audiences might be made more suspicious of journalists who fact check, not less. Randy Stein of Cal Poly Pomona joins Hear Me Out to discuss his new research about debunkings and public trust.

The Olympics Are a Tool of Oppression

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: opening ceremonies (and a can of worms). We come to you midway through the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. But amid the patriotism, athletic prowess, and sheer spectacle of these games — the most watched and streamed to date, by some measures — there’s also concerns about geopolitical power, human rights abuses, and the facilitation of facism. MacIntosh Ross of Windsor University joins us to talk about the uglier facets of the Olympic Games.

Pop Stars Run Politics Now

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: who runs the world? Kamala Harris is having a brat summer, which means that you’re likely seeing lots of questions about what brat summer is and why anyone cares. But the meme being co-opted by the Harris campaign is just a small piece of the bigger puzzle. Writer and podcast host H. Alan Scott joins Hear Me Out to argue that pop stars have a huge amount of political influence — that, coupled with “cool factor,” could swing the election.

You Don’t Need A BFF

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: make the friendship bracelets. Or don’t. Like all relationships, friendships can grow, change… and, yes, end. Sometimes for good reason. But we romanticize the BFF as the goal – to find your person – and that might not be realistic. Author and podcast host Kristen Meinzer joins us to make the case for not needing a best friend forever.

Awesome show
Objectivity as a form of Cowardice

4월 2일

No DRM

In theory, a host of a podcast discussing myriad societal issues with people from across the political spectrum, and pushing back equally on their assertions and dogma regardless of their party or background would be a good thing. However, this is another show platforming people who would’ve been seen as dangerous ideologues only a few years ago, and massively expanding the Overton window by acting as though apologists for extremists are only as misguided (and quite possibly as deep-down-good) as people who spend all their time trying to protect democracy and prevent the systematic undermining of fundamental rights and norms.

Both sides nonsense

StevenRatesSomeStuff

Both sides are “bad” 😒. I’m the same as my newly white power uncle that I don’t want to talk to any more. I guess I should try harder to reach out to him because it’s my fault for being a snob. I hope she realizes the knots Slate is tyinf her into with this both-sides-ism nonsense before it’s too late.
