Park Bench Ontology

An anti-capitalist mixtape for anyone whos ever side-eyed a car in a bike lane.

Author: Gavin Stephens

is a low-stakes existential crisis disguised as a comedy podcast for people quietly losing faith in the script of modern life. Each week, comedian and writer Gavin Stephens dissects the absurd machinery of capitalism and culture from sitcoms to wealth inequality, Baudrillard to people who talk in the movies exposing the broken myths, invisible rules, and slow-motion collapse we all pretend isnt happening.Presented by The Chonilla Network.
