Militant Empathy

news, politics, history · EN

Militant Empathy is a long-form podcast, where each episode tries to grapple with one big issue, like: why do we think about sex the way that we do? What does "justice" mean? Where did borders come from? What the fuck is mental health anyway? I pull on history, philosophy and general political science to shape each episode but the most important thing for me is always to make sure that somebody with absolutely zero subject matter expertise could still understand what I'm talking about. I truly believe that if you cannot explain something well to somebody who doesn't know your field, you do not know your field well enough yourself. The podcast runs in seasons and each season I'll release one episode a month, with a short break between seasons. You can catch episodes on all major podcasting platforms and also YouTube xoxo
