  • “A Bridge Too Far — Assisted Death in Canada” – 603
    Mar 20 2024
    "A Bridge Too Far — Assisted Death in Canada" Who has the right to determine when they die? For most of history, taking one’s own life has been viewed as something society should prevent at all costs. Yet in Canada today, assisted suicide is on the rise. In fact, the government has made it a legal option. Josh and Betsy put these concerning trends under the microscope as they examine a difficult but highly pertinent topic: should we have the power to determine when we die? Items Discussed: "How Canada's Assisted Suicide Law Went Wrong"-- The Atlantic Article Suggestions for future episodes?

What does FRIENDS teach us about friendship... and have we lost that special something in our uber-digital world of today? Do we still need good friendships? How do we make them?” Join us for this fun conversation, and remember... "we'll be there for you..."

  • “Throwdown: Is the Casualization of Clothing Good or Bad?” – 601
    Oct 18 2023
    "THROWDOWN - Is the Casualization of Clothing in Our Culture Good or Bad?" “Josh and Betsy are ready to rumble! In this debate style episode they take opposite sides on the question of whether or not the casualization of clothing in America has been a good thing. This episode was prompted by the recent rule change in the United States Senate, which permits Senators to wear pretty much whatever they want on the floor of the Senate. So what will it be, stretchy pants or tailored slacks? You decide!” Items Discussed:  "The Senate Dress Code Gets a Casual Overhaul"-- NY Times Article "Dress Up - What We Lost in the Casual Revolution"-- article in First Things Magazine Suggestions for future episodes?
