Where There's Woke

By: Thomas Smith
  • Summary

  • Every single time the right, or even center-left, goes ballistic over a "woke" controversy, the slightest bit of investigation shows the scandal is almost entirely bogus. This is not a new phenomenon; it dates back decades. It's an intentional tool used to protect the powerful and preserve the status quo, while further scapegoating and otherizing those who push for political progress. This podcast digs into not just today's fake scandals, but those of yesterday and yesteryear. The terminology has changed some, but the pattern has not. Listen in as host Thomas Smith shines a light on the panic, the fragility, the overreaction, and the lying that ignites 'Where There's Woke.'

  • WTW54: Tucker Carlson Interviews Aaron Rodgers
    Jun 5 2024

    We've finally attained our complete PiaT/CogDis crossover goal with our guest today, Noah Lugeons! We all suffered through more than 2 hours of Tucker Carlson interviewing Aaron Rodgers so you don't have to. Yes it's insane, but it's also scary how not insane it feels, too. Debunking Right Wing Rhetoric is even more important when it's coming out of the mouths of seemingly "normal" people with platforms; it's a slippery slope and Rodgers is apparently deep in it.

    New College, Part 4: A Business Plan and a Comedy Show

    In our final episode of the series, Lydia walks us through New College's search for a permanent President, and stumbles on a lot of questionable fiscal shenanigans that are happening with seemingly zero accountability or oversight. To close it out, Lydia subjects Thomas to torture via the comedy stylings of New College's Dean of Students.
