#27 - How Far Is Too Far? - Hunting, Human Culling & Realistic Superpowers With Wayne Telford & Josh Murray

This week marks the return of our favourite palaeontologist/author Wayne Telford, along with Josh (the co-host of “Science, But Simple”), discussing what superpowers would be the most ideal to use in a realistic (less vigilante-like) sense and which ones they think they’d get if they were a fictional character.

As well as the above, a fairly detailed discussion on human culling & utilitarianism takes reigns halfway through the talk, mentioning Thanos’ idea of balance and how, or if, it could work, followed by opinions on assisted suicide, “anti-natalism”, abortion and stem-cells.

Next week will technically be a part 2 of this chat, but we are having them as two separate podcast episodes as the second half of the chat delves into different topical territory, where religion & faith and palaeontology are discussed, as well as Josh, Wayne & Mike’s favourite water-dwelling, land-dwelling and extinct creatures, so anyone who’s interested in learning about some cool new animals and some of the crazy things they do, be sure to return!

Last week’s episode was a discussion had by Mike & his guest Steven on festivals, drugs & their relationship with alcohol, as well as drug reform, why Steven became a vegan and subsequently why he no longer is one, including factory farming, lab-grown meat and much more to sink your teeth into!
