Politics OR Politiking

19 episodes - English - Latest episode: about 1 year ago -

Politics or Politiking is a podcast that no definition can accurately describe! PorP is limitless in the topics it will address, it will include conversations around religion, spirituality, politics, life, and academia. We are just a couple of Ph.D. students interested in politics and the like, and wanted to deliver it in a way that everyone understands. We want this to be geared toward making things simple and interesting to everyone, and to encourage those to become more involved and aware of what's going on in the world. We are also adamant about pulling apart politics and explaining how it is deeply rooted throughout our lives and beyond. We hope to be critical, analytical, present facts, and discuss possible solutions that extend beyond the formulation stage and progress towards the implementation stage!! This is a podcast to invoke collective solutions for collective problems.
