    Is Privilege Real?
    May 25 2021

    POLITICAL CORRECTNESS | Saying the N Word
    Jan 29 2021
    Today we are joined in The Safe Space by Rucka Rucka Ali, a top charting comedy rapper. We discuss the use of the N word, which we think is important more broadly with respect to how we treat language and concepts. Why does Rucka use this word, why do some people get offended by it but others don't? Let us know your thoughts!

    Being Really Loaft
    Dec 25 2020
    Today I am joined by Brian Anderson, who I met while traveling in Panama. He and I discuss whether or not he is lazy, and what his values are. Is a common association of laziness with stupidity valid, and would people like me benefit from being a bit "more lazy"? We also discuss how he feels about having his intelligence and drive questioned.

    Welcome to The Safe Space. Today I am joined by Jennifer Minjarez. She and I work together, and are also friends, which leads there to being two different dynamics to consider. I had a hard time balancing them, and her and I have a really honest and deep exploration of that dynamic and in particular one specific incident that occurred.

    Being "The Brown Guy"
    Dec 8 2020
    Today I am joined in The Safe Space by Winston Devendrarajah. He and I talk about what it is like to "be the token brown guy". Winston and I discuss the nature of race, what it was like being the brown kid in a majority white neighborhood, and also dive into my experiences with Judaism. It is a really interesting and honest conversation about race.
