Welcome to the Nothing But Tangents Podcast, dedicated to those urban philosophers, philanthropist, holistic medical professionals and high IQ people who might lose a few good points in their tangents. Mainly a source of entertainment, news and controversial conversation. Mostly a platform used to express free thinking and encouraging an open mind. Honestly just us hanging out but with a microphone on.

    What if the one who got away was your step sister? What if porn was never invented? What if game devs and movie producers listened to the audience? What if college was free?

Get ready for the most unedited, unadulterated and unsomething episode of this podcast yet!  We'll try harder on the description next time.

    Today we have a special guest, rising Tik Tok star Winrow The Square stops by the podcast (and by stops by we mean we took over his house and recorded the episode there) shows off his comedic talents the whole episode. The cat comes out of the bag as we start off the episode breaking down what exactly a is a fat pussy, then the crew does what they do best by snowballing into tangents about Christian battling Covid, what's new in media with Squid Game and Star Wars, Mormons continuing to blatantly have no fucking idea what they are doing but trying their best and more. To end things off, the 2nd half the gang interviews Winrow on how getting paid really works while getting millions of Tik Tok views, how staying true to his own lane he created gained him a massive following, obstacles as a young black creator placed by Tik Tok themselves and so much more, so make sure you show up for our amazing guest star and stay for the tangents.

    This episode is a reminder to support your wholesome indie game devs and local gaming scenes!  This episode is also a reminder that any major corporation attempting to remake a fan favorite series is deliberately trying to ruin it as much as they possibly can and bank off nostalgia and loyalty to a series from the viewers.  So everyone get out your bank accounts and get ready to give your hard earned money to greedy publishers to experience the joy of being a nerd with you friends, and strap in those fucking seatbelts for another thrilling episode of the NBT Podcast! *Thrilling meaning if you don't care about game devs, you might wanna skip to the Cowboy Bebop part.

    THIS EPISODE GETS SPICY, IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR HOT ACTION THEN GET READY FOR 2 HOURS OF PURE FLAGRANCY, BOLD CLAIMS SPOKEN WITH GUSTO, SHARP WORDS, VIOLENCE ENSUING, WELCOME TO THE CAGE MATCH OF THE FUCKING YEAR. The crew sits down and has an important conversation about the Covid Vaccine. This debate includes information from articles on our discord, the FDA report, news reports and from doctors themselves. We are nowhere near experts on the vaccine, but we sure don't have an issue taking their words and reiterating them.  I COULD clickbait you, but I'll save you some suspense; we all believe that people should get the vaccine. Whether or not it should be an option or not is entirely different, but if you were to ask all of us "should I get the vaccine" the answer, in one way or another for completely different reasons, would end towards yes or a variation of yes or a flat out yes.

    Nothin‘ But MLK Fortnite, Pop Rappers and Condoms

    Here at the NBT, we tend to joke about not using or liking condoms. While we understand this humor may appeal to a wide demographic, we would like to take some time and be responsible with our platform and hold ourselves accountable for our jokes about condoms. Please, do not take our jokes and quips to heart. We encourage all of you to practice safe sex for you, your partner, both of your partners in the future and the well being of your communities. We encourage you all to stay educated on healthy and safe sex. We encourage you all to not buy anymore condoms and learn how to pull out in an effort to save the economy from further damage. Think about all of that plastic you are putting into the environment.  Remember, a True environmentalist DOESN'T use condoms. This has been a PSA from your friendly neighborhood virgins. 

    Nothin‘ But Understanding Masculinity

    Recently, or more like whenever this episode was recorded, the world of lower class and suburban America was set ablaze with different instances in the media reintroducing the age old question to the masses; how do you define masculinity? With traditional masculinity constantly finding itself being challenged and removed, and with brand new concepts of masculinity being scrutinized and unaccepted by older generations, the crew decided to dedicate an entire episode to understand masculinity through their eyes and experiences.  The goal of this episode isn't to convince you that we are the definitive answer of a social construct that changes every 10 years; in truth we are all aware that masculinity is a question and not an understanding, a label for identification rather than the ironclad truth. The goal of this episode is to have viewers ask themselves the same questions we asked whatever day we recorded this. We hope this incites conversations and provokes thoughts, be it rooted in values aged like fine wine or never ending curiosity born from youthful endeavor.  Tl;dr Listen to the episode because this shit is kinda fire.

    Welcome! To our first ever morning podcast. We encourage listeners to grab a cup of their favorite breakfast beverage, a nice bowl of whatever has fiber because we need fiber and if you smoke then sure do that to. We start off this episode giving a basic understanding of what is happening in Palestine/Israel and ask those who aren't familiar with the situation to at least learn the bare minimum. We then explore Autism in media using two recent examples and warn viewers to maybe chill on calling people Autistic unless they have the qualifications to do so. Finally before digging into some Tangents, we break down some recent J. Cole lyrics. And all of this is done before noon. Stay tuned, the brunch podcast episode is coming soon.

    Welcome, to the shortest episode so far. Please celebrate this landmark with us, as we continue to strive towards shorter episodes in the future but will ultimately fail. This episode will take viewers through the history of important heroines in gaming history which transitions into understanding the Male Gaze. Followed by a tangent on docking, we end the podcast with helping creepy men take accountability for being creepy. We are here to tell you that it's ok to be creepy, as long as you keep that creepy tucked inside yourself for the rest of your life.

    Nothin' But Police Brutality and Pronouns

    Welcome to the podcast!  We spent the first half of this episode covering a serious issue in America; the recent showings of Police Brutality with most of the instances ending in murder. Once we cover those stories, we touch on adjusting the funds on the police and if police reform is possible at this point. Incase viewers wanted the names of those spoken about in this podcast who have been recent victims of incompetent police, their names are George Floyd, Adam Toledo, Ma'Khia Bryant and Caron Nazario.  The last half of the podcast is spent on a less serious note, where we have a talk about pronouns and coming to terms with our own pronouns. For future reference, we ask viewers to respect the hosts pronouns and refer to Larvin as Dude/Nigga and Baldo as Bro. We thank you for your understanding.

    At this point, you'd figure there would be a designated description that we could just copy and paste. Sometimes coming up with these on the spot is hard work. Sometimes you think that 4 hours of a bad movie would make it better, but sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you like someone's IG post in hopes that they'll recognize you when you're famous and allow you to smack their genitals into theirs, and then sometimes you grow out of that phase but still would smack their genitals if the offer came up. Sometimes you get sex advice from lesbians; sometimes it'll work and sometimes you'll remember, "ah, I don't believe I'm a lesbian". Stick around for this episode and we'll find out what works together. Sometimes.

    Two incredibly intellectual and knowledgeable women grace the NBT podcast with well informed critiques and warnings about Sia and the backstory behind her problematic film. The topics in this short episode are broad enough to reach many listeners, from those who barely heard about this film and found it interesting to those who have loved ones diagnosed with Autism. We are glad to have these two breakdown an incredibly sensitive topic with passion and elegance and we all hope to start deeper conversations among our communities.

    Would you rather date a Scorpio or a Slytherin? Would you rather wear a family of puppies or be a woman in the early 1900s? Would you rather Rick Ross' career have died off after Ashton Martin Music or do you actually know his catalog besides his hits? We don't answer any of these questions, but we at least start the conversation with a few great tangents along the way.

    Honestly; Find me any other podcaster or content creator that goes in depth with Functionalism vs Structuralism in Porn. Not Joe Rogan, not white Youtubers who started a podcast out of boredom and getting sponsorships for the bare minimum content and not your favorite podcasters, unless that happens to be us. Come for the intellectual analysis of cinema and romantic relationships and stay for a warning about the racist algorithm, all broken down by highly knowledgeable professionals.
