The Reason For Now

Are women too objectified in society? And if so why? Is it wrong? We discuss how identity politics as a result of the disintegrative acid of political correctness and the incorrectly applied notion of free speech are leading to a very dangerous far left  where an extreme few think they have the moral high ground in representing everyone of their type. This emotion driven ideal will always lead to...

Summary of this week's topical talkology

The hype over the president's club is nothing more than the vested interest of the media to sell stories using political correctness as a fulcrum of righteousness. We interview a random female member of the public about this who reflexly says 'we all know what the media are like'. But that does not stop them from ruining people's lives for the sake of a couple of columns of marketable script. We q...

All of us deal with things we are worried about every day. Using Andy's crash and burn example which has happened to all of us at one time or another we discuss how you can take control and not be controlled by your anxiety. We are controlled by our evolutionary instinct to reflexly reduce anxiety to achieve survival needs and escape predators. The problem in today's urban jungle is that we mistak...

Should you live a life of vice or virtue? Research shows that people who have led a life of vice have fewer regrets at the end of their life than those who lived a life of virtue. We discuss if this is correct and how you too can achieve this while nagivating through some of this week's media gaffs and politicaly correct quick sand. We also touch on Donald Trump and Attention Deficit Disorder and...

It's the feeding frenzy of the New Year Sales. Whether or not most sales ever offer genuine savings we are faced with endlessly increasing choice which although it is something that we think we need it only serves to make us increasingly unhappy. We discuss evidence that the brain subconsciously synthesises its own happiness but only if it is given the opportunity with enough time to do so which c...

This is the time of year where we all take stock and ruefully review all the goals they set themselves and failed. Looking forwards to the New Year with renewed resolve we set new goals as resolutions yet research shows most of us have give up by the first two weeks coining the phrase Blue Monday. Goals along with political correctness are one of the disasters of Western Society. Why? Because they...

Christmas used to be something much more special but as society disintegrates it is simply another commercial vehicle to make money out of us. In many cases Christmas just reminds us how lonely we are while at the same time encouraging is to further dietary excess and social media use. Perhaps Christmas time is a wake up call to remind us of some of the values of this religious festival which are...

Is social media a con? In fact does it achieve the exact opposite of what it claims? Is it destroying our natural need to socialise for the sake of advertising revenue? We discuss how human's are the victims of manipulation by hugely complicated algorithms keeping us addicted to each social media interaction we have. Yet we are getting more depressed and women are self harming more and elections a...

Trump has a key strength that all entrepreneurs have. He is a doer. Amongst all the mistakes and bankruptcies there have been successes. But exactly because of this it makes him a very dangerous President unless he listens to his advisors. Triggering a third world war is not the same as bankrupting one company and setting up another. Justin Baldoni makes a very valid point that men need to be them...

The Royal Family has just shown everyone how to deal with immigrants. They assimilate into their own culture and identity. Megan Markle has been made to convert to Protestantism as the Queen is head of the Church of England. She is expected to integrate into the Royal Family structure and culture thus maintaining identity and therefore unity. Anything less would only serve to weaken it. Politician...

We interview a young professional couple and discuss their perceptions of the balance of power between the sexes and pressures at work. Women are being pressured to 'have it all' with no understanding whatsoever of natural biology and innate strengths which should always be played to if one is to seek and achieve self optimization. That's why more women are suffering stress and depression and ther...

Should prostitutuion be legalized? There is precedent in legalising illicit drugs in Norway and Portugal which has reduced the prison population and made the drug scene more healthy and regulated and helped those with mental and social vulnerabilities. We cast a worrisome eye on the fact that more women are having to seek the services of male escorts and discuss how this is more a sign of an incre...

We have a female guest today who gives us her perspective on this harassment media circus and reassures us that most women take full responsibility for setting boundaries which includes an understanding of their own boundaries if and when they have been poor so that they have regretted doing certain things, but there is no doubt some take advantage of cultural political correctness in the West for...

Who is responsible for Media (and social media) feeding frenzies and lynch mobs? Who is responsible for tax mitigation (as opposed to evasion) schemes. Who is responsible for the credit crunch? Can there be a common thread which could explain all these apparently diverse sets of circumstances? For sure. Human nature and the fact that government allows it through lack of clear and proper leadership...

Is there really a covert epidemic of harassment or are the true harassers the media of our senses and of the men they make their victims? Have the media found another profitable crusade of political correctness? An insult to our senses. We take an optimistic view that common sense has and always will prevail in the understanding of the rules of the evolutionary male female game of giver and receiv...

We introduce a special guest today to accompany us on our discussion about political correctness. We discuss what it means. Misconceptions include being tactful. In reality it is a tool of societal disintegration where nursery rhymes are being re written in the name of gender neutrality. Whereas all this does is neuter order and structure in society. Nobody is allowed to even suggest there are dif...

How do abuses of power such as we have seen flagrantly with Harvey Weinstein come about? How is this allowed throughout different societies socially politically religiously and why do the masses out up with it yet what makes some of these institutions such as communism and Harvey Weinstein seemingly so impregnable suddenly crumble. We provide hypotheses based on an understanding of the rules of hu...

Hilary Clinton is today interviewed by Graham Norton. Why is she desperate to become President? Why is did she loose against Trump. The issue of likeability as with Harvey Weinstein raises its head. For Hilary is the need to become President a form of self validation in the face of her husband's infidelity? Perhaps it would be easier for her to take responsibility and sort things out first so Bill...

What is the truth about Harvey Weinstein? Can we really trust anything actresses (or the media) say as they have clearly already demonstrated a compulsion to act in their own vested interest. If so why is this happening to Harvey Weinstein right now? Afterall this type of behaviour is endemic in the entertainment industry. We simplify everything and explain two basic rules of human behaviour. 1: P...

Why aren't families looking after their elderly? Are people too selfish? Is it their fault or is it just not possible given the pressures of modern living and the fractured family networks in our instant gratification society. This is another symptom of social dysfunction from the corrosive farce of democracy and instant gratification where society thinks it's acceptable that a Prime Minister givi...

Why are professional women having difficulty finding relationships? Do men want smart women? Women are doing better at school and at work than men. Is this leading to role reversal? Or should women be at work at all ? Does this damage fidelity? Should they have the choice to have a family without worrying about economic necessity? Does the government have a responsibility to help maintain the nucl...

We take a necessarily very provocative and revealing approach today to the single greatest growing illness in today's society. We question whether it is true and what the problem really is. It's not more doctors and medication that we need but healthier life styles. Instead politicians and media through vested interest continue to feed us quick fixes and are responsible for the increasing sickness...

Is diversity a good thing? Surely families , teams, companies, countries need unity and harmony not difference brought by the diversity of multiculturalism. We discuss how a multiracial society is not necessarily the same as a multicultural society. Brexit is an opportunity for Britain to become more British by emphasizing the British culture and identify in statute which every citizen has to unit...

Are we in control of our lives? Do we actually have a say of how we Iive our lives or are we at the mercy of the giant corporations driving the engine of our modern consumerist society? One thing is for sure ; we are not happy. Are we just fodder ,Matrix style, to keep the wheels of capitalism rolling? Yet we have free speach, political correctness , a free press. Surely these are positive signs t...
