  • Problems with Particularism?
    Dec 12 2025

    A couple of episodes ago, we looked at a paper on particularism by Kurtis, M and Charles - this episode we're looking at the paper that that paper was a response to, making it both a prequel and a sequel. Just like The Godfather Part II. This episode is the Godfather Part II of podcast episodes - you can tell people we said that.

  • State Secrets II (Part 2) - What the Conspiracy!
    Oct 18 2025

    Josh and M are back together, so the sensible thing to do is destroy both of their brains by having M try once again to find the point to "State Secrets II" - local author Ben Vigden's book of local conspiracy theories - and communicate it to Josh. Things do not go well.

  • From the Can! - The North Head File
    Sep 21 2025

    Stuff is happening that means Josh and M can't record this week. But they did record two unreleased episodes back in January, so here's one of them.
