Dial It Back Or Die
77 episodes - English - Latest episode: almost 3 years ago - ★★★★★ - 5 ratingsI realize that for most of us it is extremely traumatic to fully grasp just how wrong this world has become. And just how far and fast this has happened/is happening. But this podcast gives an interesting, thorough, and dispassionate analysis of just how and why we got to here from there. Further, by using established, mainstream science, it then presents a clear, complete, non-ideological picture of human behavior and the human condition. Kind of like a really interesting college course. No, really. And, since each episode builds upon the last, kindly start with Episode 1. And continue.
