The June edition of the ICBW podcast is now available for download or streaming. Part 1 discusses various "insurgent" political candidates running in the current US election cycle, including LA mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt (who still appeared to have qualified for the November runoff election at recording time), as well as several extremist primary winners elsewhere in the country. Part 2 reprises another round of our ongoing debate over the nature of modern democratic partisanship, in the US and elsewhere. Part 3 covers a recent case of outrageous police misconduct in the UK, and public response to it. Finally, part 4 explores the social implications of AI in fields such as mathematics and the arts. As always, listeners are invited to participate in the discussion via comments on this post.
