UNLOCKED (Full ep) ‘Fashademics’ 1 - War on Science
Wednesday, 14 January, 2026
UNLOCKED! Thanks to the new subscribers who help us hit the goal. ———Introducing a new Polite Conversations miniseries: ‘Fashademics’ - where we talk about fash adjacency in academia (something this show has already covered for a long time). For ep 1 of this miniseries I speak to former academic Nathan Oseroff-Spicer (nateo.bsky.social) about his review of the widely mocked ‘War on Science’ book, put together by Lawrence Krauss. I would love to unlock this miniseries as we go along, but that can’t happen without your help dear listeners. Each episode takes a lot of time, research and work to put together. If you’d like to help this series keep going pls consider supporting the podcast via patreon.com/nicemangos ———Links:Nathan’s review: https://www.liberalcurrents.com/wars-on-science-real-and-otherwise/My unlocked patreon piece on the War on Science book: https://www.patreon.com/posts/war-on-science-123635833Boghossian goes full fash https://www.patreon.com/posts/boghossian-goes-137585027Sarah Haider promotes eugenics conference https://bsky.app/profile/nicemangos.bsky.social/post/3ljvcnahl2c2aHuman Diversity Foundation & Bo Winegard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Diversity_FoundationJordan Peterson & Spiritual Attacks https://bsky.app/profile/nicemangos.bsky.social/post/3m2fsg7ll3k2vOn close ties of 20 top editors, executives, and journalists at the New York Times who have covered Gaza and their connection to Israel and the IDFhttps://mondoweiss.net/2025/07/the-new-york-times-commitment-to-zionism-begins-with-its-own-staff/BBC Middle East News Editor Raffi Berg talks about being accepted into ‘a circle of trust with Mossad’ https://x.com/stevepowers_/status/1987464659113214115?s=61&t=w7q_ejvwZ_gCFj9WV50Lqw Hosted on Acast.
