Show Notes

What better way to celebrate our 150th episode than to bring back our favorite guest – Paul Bloom! We riff on a series of topics: the new "grievance studies" hoax, sex robot brothels, perverse desires, and perverse beliefs. Then we get a little navel gazey (OK maybe more than a little) and talk about podcasting as a form of media and discussion, good teaching, and what we've learned about our listeners and ourselves. (Note: the audio may sound a little echoey towards the end because of how far we've crawled up our own asses.) This was a fun one, enjoy! Special Guest: Paul Bloom. Support Very Bad Wizards
