Introducing a new Polite Conversations miniseries: ‘Fashademics’ - where we talk about fash adjacency in academia (something this show has already covered for a long time).

For ep 1 of this miniseries I speak to former academic Nathan Oseroff-Spicer (nateo.bsky.social) about his review of the widely mocked ‘War on Science’ book, put together by Lawrence Krauss.

I would love to unlock this miniseries as we go along, but that can’t happen without your help dear listeners. Each episode takes a lot of time, research and work to put together. If you’d like to help this series keep going pls consider supporting the podcast via patreon.com/nicemangos

Join me for a quick chat about some recent stories in our increasingly fascist world. The erosion of International law, ICE murdering its own citizens, the Western world’s silence, double standards and complicity, Sam Harris’ Woke Derangement Syndrome ….and the removal of an Australian-Palestinian author from a writers festival.
