all the podcasts are archived. post the link to the time i got "shut down" on matters of politics or economics :stopitslime:

Dawg, you a cool cat and all. I like energy and emotion you bring to the show, but you get sonned on average, 2.5 times per show. At times, i feel like just shaking you (no homo)on some :wtf: are you talking about especially when you start dissing science for not researching certain topics, which is an oxymoron because if you googled the topic, you'd more than likely see, a series of studies being done. For example, the neuroscience field is booming with research being done on consciousness. I'm no econ or fiance major but i can only image your ramblings on science mimic economics topics......

Alright Wednesday@8 est...unfortunately the homie leyet won't be able to bless us with his infallible intellect this time. Looks like we got me, zero, and broke. Fkdmr you still on? TrueEpic? Anyone else want to get on? Serious? We could use another person or 2 or 3. Hit me on skype...liquidlaser

I'm thinking about maybe...

-General thoughts on the DNC convention

-new atheist movement like Zero suggested, and the issue of sensitivity and criticism of religion

-Chief Keef and what he represents.

Another topic I think we should add since it's the anniversary is reflections on 9/11, what it meant, how its shaped policy and opinions or whatever people want to say about it. Bar None buy a fukking mic.

I'll see. Busy, hectic day coming up at school coming up today, plus I'm going on no sleep and 5 Hour Energy. I might have to cut in in the middle or something, if at all.

:snoop: Maybe Wednesday at 8 wasn't a good idea. If it's only gonna be 2 or 3 people, we might as well not do it.

Would anyone interested that can't do 8 be able to do it if we pushed it back to 9?

but on the flip side i can post plenty of examples of me schoolin yall to the game of global politics and economics, both problem and solutions.

while yall have already spent countless hours analyzing what amounts to an episode of west wing.

pathetic :snoop:

lol edit for the smilies

No disrespect, but you're right. I called that out after the first podcast, and said of course a Hip Hop audience would like you. You're anti-institution, the facts are secondary.

Let me put it like this, on the podcast, you're Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco and to a lesser extent my man Nas, you have all that passion and emotion and may be "self-learned" but it doesn't equate to an actual, all-encompassing understanding of the minutia of an issue. It's easy to posture, but harder to deal with realities and application of your principles to real world situations.

You argue in a simplified world and argue using abstractions, when pressed for detailed factual information, you come up short. Unlike VVD, who will say "I'm no pro on this subject." NOW, your energy is probably the best part of the podcast. Which is why I was initially for deciding topics ahead of time and having people at least brief themselves and read up before the topic. It would make the podcast stronger. That's my two cents.

fromwhat i've heard it makes the most sense to have at least SOME idea of what you're going to discuss.

No one here is an expert on the subjects discussed (in most cases) when discussing technical topics having facts and such at your disposal would strengthen the conversations, otherwise you're stuck debating opinions and guesses.

Bro:

OT: but can we have a random thoughts thread for HL, you know for things, that you don't necessarily want to make a thread for, yet still pose a question someone might answer etc....

I'm just speaking for myself, but it doesn't matter for me. 9 would get me there for the start, but I'm fine with whatever. I'll at least attempt to check in either way.

:comeon: 9 est can you say definitively if you'll be there because we will move it back one hour if need be. No one wants to hear me and zero talk to each other the whole time. If you're on, at least we got 3 people. Brokewave you still on b?
