His older work, "Unqualified Reservations" is a treasure trove of dissident anti-establishment thought (I highly recommend "How Dawkins Got Pwned" and "An Open Letter to Open Minded Progressives"), and his current blog, "Gray Mirror" is furthering his political critique of the current world order. https://graymirror.substack.com https://www.unqualified-reservations.org How Dawkin's Got Pwned, narrated by @SkepticalWaves : https://youtu.be/ihiqIcHV7d4 Support this channel: https://www.paypal.me/benjaminboyce https://cash.app/$benjaminaboyce https://www.buymeacoffee.com/benjaminaboyce

S5 Ep 20s05e20 | Furry Fandom & Detransition, with Ria
Ria got involved in "Furry" fandom a decade ago, drawn to this fuzzy niche culture by its emphasis on creativity and quirky social gatherings. Over the years, however, she saw it succumb to "social justice" ideas, where people policed each other's thoughts and art on the basis of fighting oppression. In tandem, a sexual element began to become more prevalent, with a disturbing amount of "minor-attracted" art and "grooming" behavior. Oh yeah, she also was trans for a while, and detransitioned due to the health effects of testosterone on her female body. We speak about these two topics, and more, and if you have spotify you gotta watch the video as her smile is the cat's... fursuit?

S5 Ep 7s05e07 | Talking Therapies & Gender Identities, with Marcus and Susan Evans
Susan and Marcus Evans are seasoned psychotherapists who worked at the Tavistock Clinic in the UK. During their time there, the Gender Identity Development Services (GIDS) experienced a massive influx of referrals, and they both witnessed a startling switch in the psychotherapy profession from patient inquiry to "affirmative" chemical treatments, specifically when "gender" was involved, and out of keeping with the broader standards of care for other psychological treatments. In time, both of them were compelled to blow the whistle on this sea change, and have since written an in-depth, factually based book on Gender Dysphoria that aims to bring to light the complexity and humanity of this novel corner of human mental health.

S4 Ep 91s04e91 | From Transition to Liberation: A Detrans Male Story, with Torren Danowski
I spoke with Torren at the end of 2020 about his struggles with gender, black and white thinking, and Obsessive-Compulsive ideation. A couple weeks ago he reached out to me inquiring if I had heard of psychedelic therapies for these issues, and I only had heard anecdotes. He then shared his libertarian podcast with me and I was amazed at his change of attitude and new-found confidence, so I wanted to have him back on to speak about what he's been through over the last (nearly) two years, in which he founded Don't Tread On Philly in response to the draconian civil rights violations of Philadelphia's pandemic response, and is now running for mayor on the Libertarian ticked.
