The Toothless Podcast
Belief does not subdue fact and some beliefs are worth understanding. || Not an expert, but damn curious! This podcast tackles questions on everything from religion and philosophy to history, science (and pseudo), even a whole lotta fiction, from the perspective of the permanent layman, Matt the Toothless Philosopher. I’ll be joined by my real life brother the one and only Mike the Mad Monk, potentially other guests, or just the voices in my head. Hope you enjoy!

Murder! Who deserves to die in our society? This is a shorter discussion that that specific topic is worth. Also, sorry for any sound quality issues. It's been a day.

Faith, or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Hope, but also, not really. I talk about other stuff, too. Naturally. This feels like me trying to work something out but I hope there's some useful things in it.

Labels. Some other stuff, too. I feel like there's more here but I'll get to it, probably in a blog post. Check out Naming Conventions

Sorry about some of the audio quality... This one isn't as rage-filled as the other one, but it feels a little meandering to me. Got inspired while trying to sleep and had to deal with it. Few points of clarification: Gandhi did do the thing I said with his grand-niece which makes it weirder, but he was actually firmly anti-racist as he got older. The cross was likely a T but could have been an X - both letters were used. Margaret Sanger was NOT explicit a racist but she did operate in a time where things like eugenics and racism were pretty prevalent. She did her best to distance herself from eugenics and perhaps some effort to do so with racism, too. History is fascinating!

TRIGGER WARNING: I talk about some horrible things related to Israel/Palestine, domestic assault, race relations in the US, and trans people existing (which they do and should). It's really just me hating on hate. It's mostly me ranting, so if you're after something constructive, feel free to skip it. Also, the phrase I couldn't think of was "Delayed Gratification."

Early morning diatribe. Trying to keep the faith. Trying to clarify some random thoughts. Hoping to be some level of inspirational without pushing my luck too much.

A calmer reaction to the impending demise of the US democracy. Never forget why you fight. Never doubt that while we lost, we were not wrong.
