The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast

124 episodes - English - Latest episode: 13 days ago -

The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast is the world's first podcast dedicated to the subject of Antinatalism, created by Antinatalists! Antinatalism, (Or Anti-Natalism.) Is defined by Wikipedia as, “A philosophical position and social movement that assigns a negative value to birth.” The world of Antinatalism is very vast, and though most Antinatalists do share a kernel of the same core idea, what one Antinatalist believes from the next can be wildly different. What The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast seeks to showcase,  is a wide range of the various perspectives and ideas throughout Antinatalism as it exists today, through interviews with Antinatalist thinkers and creators of all kinds. Exploring Antinatalism was originally founded in early 2020 by various members of the now extinct, Rogue Philosophy: Antinatalism Discord, but soon grew away from being a team effort, to a mostly solo project run and hosted by long time Antinatalist content producer, Amanda ‘Oldphan’ Sukenick. (Foreverwolffilms on YouTube.), with the exception of sometimes host/co-host, Mark J. Maharaj (Question Mark? on YouTube). Thank you for listening to Exploring Antinatalism!

Nimrod's: The EuropeAN Tour 2024

March 13, 2024 19:00 - 2 minutes - 1.91 MB

My name is Nimrod and bout 10 months ago I started doing street anti-natalism activism with the aim of establishing an anti-natalist movement in Israel calling for an end to reproduction. To my surprise it is working better than I thought. This experience has filled me with a sense of belief and hope: if there is room for street activism on such an issue in a place like Israel, even though for all sorts of reasons this country is far from ideal place to start spreading messages about reprodu...
