The culture wars are seeping out of the real world and infiltrating our pages and stages.  Art has always traversed unfamiliar and even dangerous territory. But with recent calls to boycott cultural institutions, donors pulling funding, and the cancellation of works and talent, are some discussions too fraught to engage with? Louise Adler is the Director of Adelaide Writers' Week. She has spent over 30 years in the culture business and continues to be committed to the dissemination of dangerous ideas. Brook Garru Andrew is an artist, curator and writer who is driven by the collisions of intertwined narratives emerging from the mess of the “Colonial Wuba (hole)”. His practice is grounded in his perspective as a Wiradjuri and Celtic person from Australia. Violette Ayad was born on Whadjuk Noongar Boodja to Palestinian and Lebanese parents. She is now based on Gadigal land where she works as an actor, writer, director, and voice artist.  Gil Beckwith has a significant career in the Arts and Not For Profit industry in senior finance and administration management roles. Her working career spans over 40 years and includes working for Sydney Theatre Company, Melbourne Festival, the Victorian AIDS Council, and most recently CEO of Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. Declan Greene is a playwright, director, and dramaturg. As a director he has worked for many of Australia's major theatre companies, including Sydney Theatre Company, Melbourne Theatre Company, Malthouse, Belvoir, and Griffin Theatre Company.  Emile Sherman is an Academy Award and Emmy Award-winning film and television producer who co-founded See-Saw Films in 2008. Based in Sydney and London, See-Saw Films has worked with many of the world's leading filmmakers and actors.  Chaired by philosopher and Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, Simon Longstaff.

This special episode was recorded live at the 2024 Sydney Writers' Festival with Emile and Lloyd joined on stage by eminent philosopher A.C Grayling and digital content creator Mary McGillivray. Together they consider the merits and pitfalls of various forms of factual information distribution. This is arguably the greatest time in the history of the world for reading, with literally the entirety of human knowledge available in books or in the online world of articles, blogs etc. If you want to develop a deep understanding of the world we live in, you just have to read. But with the rise of online video platforms like YouTube and TikTok, many people - young people in particular, are getting their factual content, not from reading, but from these alternative sources. Research has shown that we are evolutionarily adapted to taking in knowledge audiovisually - we apparently process video images 60,000 times faster than text - and that reading, as a form of communication is complex and inefficient.For a long time, reading was the only available technology to disseminate ideas beyond the campfire, fuelled most powerfully by the invention of the printing press. Now that we have the technology to create video content, which sits most naturally with the way we're evolved to take in information, maybe we should thank reading for its help in bridging the techno- gap, and let our books collect dust as we finally return to the way we most naturally absorb knowledge about the world.In this conversation we look at the tsunami of non-fiction video content that has taken so many young people's attention away from the written word, and ask whether it's a merciful release from the boring and inefficient world of reading, a release into a promised land of enlivened, engaging, memorable video content, or whether it signals a slow spiral into a shallow, unfocused, unimaginative and insubstantial way of understanding of the world we live in.~~~~You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

How did See-Saw Films come into being? And how, with two directors running offices on opposite sides of the world, has it managed to keep such a clear and consistent creative vision?

On this special Spotlight episode the US broadcaster/podcaster/writer Krista Tippett joins Emile and Lloyd to discuss wisdom and meaning. Krista's On Being radio show and podcast has enriched the lives of its many millions of listeners over decades as has her best-selling book Becoming Wise: An Inquiry into the Mystery and Art of LivingAs host Emile Sherman said of Krista, “Our aim on the podcast is to have true expert guests, guests who are often scholars, academics, or advocates steeped in the knowledge of a particular issue and even our discussions around the principle of charity, about how to talk with others whose views we disagree with, are often evidence based. We draw on the latest research in psychology and other disciplines to teach us how to most effectively engage with others, to seek the truth rather than win the fight. “In the extraordinary Krista Tippett we have a guest who's less interested in knowledge, than in mystery, less focused on truth than on meaning and less obsessed with reason than with resonance.It's a privilege to see how her worldview can be applied to the principle of charity, to the way we approach, listen to and interact with others.”Krista Tippett is a Peabody-award winning broadcaster, National Humanities Medalist, and New York Times bestselling author.

We live in a culture that is obsessed by weight. About a third of adult women in the US are on a diet at any given time, and a fifth of men. Those who aren't dieting are thinking about dieting, with well over half of all adults actively wanting to lose weight, with men only slightly trailing women. To feed the obsession on weight, or to help people manage their weight, depending on the way one looks at things, there is a global weight loss and management industry that is expected to surpass US$405 billion by 2030. So what is going on here? Why is there a near pervasive belief that it's good to be thin and bad to be fat. In this episode we explore some of the reasons why fat has come to signify so much, looking at issues like health, shame, self-discipline, beauty and more.

In this episode we go back to basics and look at the practical ways of communicating the principle of charity and how certain behaviours over time have been developed for social cohesion, even when we don't all agree. With our special guests – moral philosopher Dr Tim Dean and festival director Danielle Harvey – we have a wide-ranging discussion on what communicating in good faith looks like, what bad faith is, and how to navigate tricky topics. We discuss ways to have hard conversations – be that in person, in events, in podcasts or even in lecture theatres. This takes us to the role of morality, behavioural evolution, and outrage. What do we have in our toolkit that we can use to solve the problems of how to live together peacefully? And just how do you communicate your view or knowledge in a way that can be understood while inviting challenge in a respectful manner? This episode introduces our new partnership with The Ethics Centre, a not for profit organisation who works to bring ethics to the centre of everyday life. We have joined forces, aligned by an intent to bring curiosity and generosity to conversations about the tough topics in our world. Dr Tim Dean is the senior philosopher at The Ethics Centre. We introduce Danielle Harvey, our new podcast producer who is also festival director of the Festival of Dangerous Ideas, which is presented by The Ethics Centre.

In 2022, an AI generated work of art won a US state art competition. The artist used Midjourney, one of the popular AI systems that also include Dall-E and Stable Diffusion. They are trained on the millions of images scattered through the internet, using a deep learning program called a ‘generative adversarial network', or GAN for short. It works by taking in text prompts, where you type in what you want the artwork to look like, and the AI then draws on the huge database of artworks, to generate a new work that conforms to the prompts. But to create a great AI work, it's not as simple as typing ‘create some great art'. The artist who won that competition put in lengthy complex prompts, working up hundreds of iterations before he arrived at the final work. So, is this really art? When we see an AI art creation, it genuinely feels ‘creative'. But is there something humans do when we create which is qualitatively different to AI? Like AI in every domain it has touched, AI art is challenging us to rethink our categories and even to ask us to question what it means to be human.Our guests for this conversation are both experts in the intersection between art and technology. Professor Ahmed Elgammal has actually constructed AI systems that have created artworks that are so good, a majority of people believe they are truly original human creations. Michael Sacasas,on the other hand, sees AI art as missing an essential ingredient, no matter how good its style is. It'll never convey the deep connection between artist and viewer that we all crave.GuestsAhmed ElgammalDr. Ahmed Elgammal is a professor at the Department of Computer Science and an Executive Council Faculty at the Center for Cognitive Science at Rutgers University. He is the founder and director of the Art and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at Rutgers. He is also the founder and CEO of Playform AI, a platform that is dedicated to give artist access to the latest generative AI tech. In 2017, he developed AICAN, an autonomous AI artist and collaborative creative partner, which was acclaimed in an Artsy editorial as “the biggest artistic achievement of the year.” In 2021, he led the AI team that completed Beethoven's 10th symphony, which received worldwide media coverage. He received M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from the University of Maryland, College Park.Michael SacasasMichael writes The Convivial Society, a popular newsletter on technology, culture, and the moral life. Michael has written for The New Atlantis, Comment, Plough, The New Inquiry, Real Life Magazine, Mere Orthodoxy, The American, and Second Nature Journal. His work has also been featured in The Atlantic, Vox, and the New York Times. He is the Executive Director, Christian Study Centre in Florida, and earned his MA in Theological Studies from Reformed Theological Seminary in 2002.

Christianity and Islam are the two biggest religions on the globe, accounting for just over half the world's population combined. Most of us know about the religion we belong and too often learn about other religions from the actions of extreme fundamentalists, mediated by the news, and by politics. In this episode we go back to basics, to find out what Christianity and Islam actually believe. What are the essential building blocks of their theology? What do you need to believe as true? What is god, what is a soul, and what happens after death? And what exactly is the promise of the religion, whether it's salvation or eternal life, and how do you achieve it?The stakes are incredibly high when it comes to theology. Countless wars have been fought in the name of christianity and islam, both between these religions and between different sects within them. And whilst there are considerable overlaps which we will explore in this episode, there are also irreconcilable differences, differences not in mere preferences and values, but in the claim to the absolute truth of the nature of the universe, our place in it, the laws of how to live, our path to salvation and our purpose in life.

It's said that the world can be divided into shame based and guilt based cultures, with the west sitting firmly in the guilt side. This is because the west has prioritised this idea of the individual, with our sense of right and wrong a matter between ourself and whatever higher power we ascribe to – whether it's our god, the state laws, or our conscious itself. In the west, guilt is seen as an appropriate and even productive emotion, with shame as the corrosive cousin. But in shame based cultures, which really make up most of the world, its shame, not guilt, that does the heavy lifting. And given most of us in the west live in rich multicultural communities, it's important to understand shame if we're going to understand what motivates the people around us. In this conversation, we talk with a leading world expert about the deeply corrosive aspects of shame, and how to release its grip on us. We also speak with a leading psychiatrist who's written a book in defence of shame, to see what benefits shame can bring. We'll also open the lens a little wider, looking at how shame is used by conservatives, liberals, but more interestingly by the progressive left, which challenges us to be careful not to shame people's sexual expressions, weight, or in fact anything that's seen as an authentic version of oneself. Whilst at the same time, the left has very successfully used public shaming, including through cancel culture, as a way to regulate what can and can't be said. And finally, we'll discuss social media as the super-fuel for shame, as it provides us with an almost infinite community within which we seek praise, and fear condemnation.Guests:Dr Patti AshleyPatti Ashley holds a doctor of philosophy degree in psychology from the Union Institute and University, a Master of Education degree in early childhood from Old Dominion University and a Bachelor of Science degree in special education from James Madison University.

Hosts Emile and Lloyd discuss some of the highlights of the past two years and run a slide rule over the Principle of Charity mission to inject curiosity and generosity back into our conversations on big social issues. They ponder if the show should be more volatile and tick off the hot topics they want to canvas with expert guests. AI for starters. “There's a topic I want to look at, which is can AI create art,” says Emile. “I guess it goes to the core of what makes us human. I feel at the moment we are living in a very transactional world.” Has hosting the podcast changed their everyday conversations? Are they more charitable? “Definitely,” says Lloyd, “and I notice when I'm not charitable. “ Join Emile and Lloyd with producer (and inquisitor) Jonah Primo, for an hour of spirited reflections and ‘around the dinner table' truth-seeking. ~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

How should we think and feel about so many things that are still so so bad, but, crucially here, so much better, than they were. Consider child mortality. Apparently, five million children under 5 died in the last year. Yet that number has more than halved in the last 30 years, which is again a huge reduction from the 20 million children under 5 who died each year in 1950. What do we do with information like this? Five million child deaths is an unacceptable tragedy. At the same time, 15 million children are essentially saved each year as compared to 1950. In this episode we explore the fascinating and intellectually consistent but emotionally incongruent thought - that things are bad, but better. Our guests bring to light data that seldom features in newsfeeds and help to unpack both the great advances being made on the one hand, alongside the worsening situations confronted by many millions of people.

Women have, by and large, lived under the yoke of patriarchy, in various forms, for as long as… well, certainly as long as civilisations have existed. So it's with some trepidation, and a little bit of cheekiness, that we're airing the headwinds that face women alongside those that face men. There's the danger of moral equivalence, where two views are put side by side, giving the impression that they're both of equal weight, when they're clearly not. And if our lens was the world as a whole, then there's no doubt that you can't compare the headwinds facing women with those of men, as there is still legally sanctioned sex discrimination against women in many countries. But in this episode we focus in on the west where formal discrimination ended on the tailwind of second wave feminism in the 70s and where there's a more nuanced and complicated story to tell.There are now a whole range of areas in which men fare worse than women. From the basics of life expectancy, to drug addiction, to suicide rates, to a job market where traditional female jobs are growing faster than traditional male jobs, there's real concern for the future of our boys. In a world that rightly wants to open up all opportunities to everyone, regardless of gender is there a way for masculinity to define itself, to find solid ground, without excluding women? And on the other side, why does the feminist goal of true equality still seem out of reach in so many spheres? How do we root out unconscious bias and structural sexism? GuestsDr Caroline LambertCaroline has worked in gender equality and social change for over 35 years, holding senior roles as the executive director of YWCA Australia, and as the director of research, policy and advocacy at the International Women's Development Agency.

Spotlight with Jane Campion: can creativity help us leap outside ourselves?Multiple academy award winning writer and director Jane Campion (The Piano The Power of the Dog) joins Emile and Lloyd for a fascinating conversation on creativity and how it can change and enhance our understanding of each other. Jane explains her creative practices and in particular her use of dream therapy to tap into the subconscious and write characters like Phil Burbank, the protagonist in The Power of the Dog, her 2022 Academy Award-winning film.Emile and Jane have worked closely together on television series and films. Emile, an Academy Award winning producer (The King's Speech) describes creativity as an extraordinary movement towards the lives of others. “It's an incredibly powerful muscle that forces you outside of yourself and into the most generous version of other experiences, as you can't create rich and believable characters unless you know them from the inside out. “I was excited to get on someone on the podcast who can talk to us in a deep way about creativity, and what it might offer for better understanding points of view we disagree with. And by far the best person I could think of is Jane.”Guest: Jane CampionJane Campion was born in New Zealand and has directed many feature films including THE PIANO, for which she won the Palme D'Or at Cannes, becoming the first woman to receive this award. The film was nominated for 9 Academy Awards, including nominations for Campion for Best Director & Best Original Screenplay, the latter of which she won.Her most recent film, THE POWER OF THE DOG (2022) received 12 Academy Award nominations including for Best Director which Jane won. The film also won Best Film at the BAFTA. Her other films include AN ANGEL AT MY TABLE which won 7 prizes at the 47th Venice Film Festival, including the Silver Lion; THE PORTRAIT OF A LADY which closed the 53rd Venice Film Festival and won the Francesco Pasinetti Award; and HOLY SMOKE which was nominated for the Golden Lion at the 56th Venice Film Festival and won the Elvira Notari Prize. The two season limited-series TOP OF THE LAKE which Campion created, co-wrote, executive produced and directed 5 of the 12 episodes, received 8 Emmy Award nominations and premiered at Sundance, Berlin and Cannes Film Festivals.Jane was President of the Jury at 54th Venice Film Festival and returned in 2008 as a Jury Member.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Thirty years talking to kids, parents and teachers and analyzing data from across the globe, has led US educator Michele Borba to a categoric conclusion: parents can indeed shape those character strengths of their children that will ultimately determine how successful they are in life. So what are the character traits that can be moulded and how should parents go about doing it in ways that a child will respond to? Can you teach resilience and optimism? Emile and Lloyd discuss with Michele the dilemmas for parents awash with advice and pressure on how to raise their kids. Michele BorbaDr Michele Borba is an internationally recognised parenting and child development expert. She has a doctorate in educational psychology from the University of San Francisco and began her professional life as a specialist teacher to children with learning disabilities.Her guide to raising children focuses on strengthening children's character, resilience and ‘moral intelligence' and her evidence-based advocacy for cultivating empathy in children has captured the attention of governments, corporations and educators across the globe.She was named Honorary Chairperson for Self-Esteem in Hong Kong, consultant for the Character Education and Civic Engagement for the U.S. Dept of Education, Disney Influencer, and Goodwill Ambassador for M.I.T.'s One Laptop per Child project. Michele is also an author. Her books have been translated into 19 languages. Among her most popular titles is Parents Do Make A Difference, How to Raise Kids with Solid Character, Strong Minds and Caring Hearts. Her most recent book Thrivers: Surprising Reasons Why Some Kids Struggle and Others Shine is a best-seller.A frequent guest on the US “Today” Show, Michele has received numerous awards including the National Educator Award (presented by the National Council of Self-Esteem), Outstanding Contribution to the Educational Profession by the Bureau of Education and Research and a 2016 SHORTY nominee for “Best Social Media Influencer in Parenting.”She's also a parent to three sons.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Behavioural geneticist Robert Plomin's book Blueprint, How DNA Makes Us Who We Are has changed lives. Robert is arguably the leading figure in behavioural genetics, working across the field for many decades. In his book Blueprint, he shows us the extraordinary evidence for our genetic nature being the absolutely dominant force in predicting who we are and will become. In fact about 50% of everything we care about is predicted by our genes. Not just our weight and height, but schizophrenia, anxiety and depression, to personality traits like agreeableness, grit, and love of learning, through to general intelligence and even university success. Emile and Lloyd probe Robert for the implications his research has for how we approach parenting. Outside of loving and protecting our children, Robert says parents can let go a bit of that inner panic that tells them that their role is to mould their kids, that their actions are crucial determinants in their children growing up to be smart, resilient, growth mindset, kind, enthusiastic, healthy, non-anxious or depressed, adults. Parents are just not that important, except in the genes they've passed on. Most radically of all, Plomin entreats us to focus on enjoying our time with our children, saying that parenting matters most just through the quality of our experiences together. Robert PlominRobert Plomin is Professor of Behavioural Genetics in the Social, Genetic and Developmental Psychiatry (SGDP) Centre at The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience, King's College London. His research brings together genetic and environmental strategies to investigate the developmental interplay between nature and nurture. In 1994 when he came to the UK from the US, he launched the Twins Early Development Study (TEDS), which continues to thrive. He has published more than 900 papers and a dozen books, which have been cited more than 130,000 times. His latest book is Blueprint: How DNA Makes Us Who We Are (Penguin, 2019).After 50 years of research, Robert has come to the view that inherited DNA differences are the major systematic force that makes us who we are as individuals – our mental health and illness, our personality and our cognitive abilities and disabilities. The environment is important, but it works completely different from the way we thought it worked. The DNA revolution has made it possible to use DNA to predict our psychological problems and promise from birth. These advances in genetic research call for a radical rethink about what makes us who we are, with sweeping, and no doubt controversial, implications for the way we think about parenting, education and the events that shape our lives.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Trigger warnings have become common practice these days, not just in university campuses, but across the media landscape, in film, television, online and social media. They warn us that the material we're about to see or hear might trigger distress. But what actually is a trigger? And what's it meant to protect us from?Trigger warnings were originally linked with post traumatic stress disorder - the idea being that those who have been through a traumatic event, for example sexual violence, and who then suffer from PTSD, can be triggered into re-experiencing that distress when exposed to related content. These days, however, trigger warnings seem to capture any sort of potentially distressing content, and are aimed at everyone, whether we have clinical PTSD or not. The idea is that we should be (or maybe even we have the right to be) warned about distressing content in advance.But do trigger warnings work effectively? Do people in practice avoid content that may be triggering and if they choose to watch, are people able to prepare themselves emotionally, to reduce the impact of the material. Or, does the opposite happen - is there an ‘anticipatory effect' where people get more distressed as they wait for and brace for the traumatic content. Our guests on this podcast bring two different views to the table. Victoria Bridgland is a psychologist who has done detailed data based research into trigger warnings and has concluded not only that they don't work, but that they are likely to exacerbate distress. Sociologist Nicole Bedera sees trigger warnings as important but not enough. She believes we need institutions that do much more to support those who've been through trauma, particularly sexual assault, otherwise they're at risk of a secondary trauma caused by ‘institutional betrayal'.Guests:Nicole Bedera, Ph.D. is a sociologist at the University of Michigan and author of the forthcoming book On the Wrong Side: How Universities Betray Survivors to Protect Perpetrators of Sexual Assault. Her research broadly focuses on how our social structures contribute to survivors' trauma and make sexual violence more likely to occur in the future. Her scholarship has influenced sexual violence prevention programming across the United States, including for Planned Parenthood, and her work has featured in media including The New York Times, NPR, and the BBC.Victoria BridglandVictoria graduated with a research PhD in 2021 from Flinders University. Victoria's research interests include expectancy effects, emotional regulation, and memory for traumatic events. Her main body of work concerns trigger warnings, and what benefit – if any – they have for people encountering negative material. Victoria currently serves on the Student Caucus Executive board for the Society for Applied Research in Memory and Cognition. In 2019 Victoria won a South Australian Postgraduate Fulbright Scholarship. Victoria is currently at Harvard, with her research focussing on trigger warnings in art spaces.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

What do we do when we don't feel well and mainstream western medicine can't seem to help us. Maybe it's an irritable bowel, headaches that come too frequently, chronic fatigue or joint pain that just won't go away. Maybe it's more serious - a life-threatening diagnosis of cancer, or a neurological condition like parkinsons, and we are told by doctors that there's no cure or they have limited treatment options. In all these cases, how should we assess complementary medicine? The alternative medicine market is a massive and growing industry increasingly framing health as ‘wellness' which aims to help us live a life of flourishing rather than just an absence of illness. Is there a point, though, when the therapies shift from helpful to hoax? In this episode with our guests Dr Norman Swan and Dr Penny Caldicott we explore what's reasonable to do if we feel sick, but our doctor doesn't seem to be able to help.Dr Norman SwanNorman is a multi-award winning broadcaster, journalist and commentator. He is the host and creator of the Health Report, on ABC Radio National, which is the longest running health programme in the English-speaking world. Norman consulted for the World Health Organisation on global priorities in health research, putting evidence into health policy and clinical trial registration. He co-facilitated, with Richard Horton (editor in chief of The Lancet) a global ministerial forum in Bamako, West Africa which aimed to advance the global health agenda.In his latest book “So You Want To Live Longer, Younger” Norman scrutinises the science and the fads to offer up a guide to living a longer, healthier life.Dr Penny CaldicottPenny is president of the Australasian Integrative Medicine Association. She's also the founder and director of Invitation to Health, a holistic, patient-centred medical service on the New South Wales Central Coast. Since graduating from medical school more than two decades ago, Penny's passion for understanding the journey that contributes to a patient's disease has led her to practice what's called integrative medicine. In this practice, complementary therapists like naturopaths and nutritionists work together with gp's in an environment designed to apply the best of evidence-based conventional medicine and complementary therapies..Penny believes that this kind of collaborative approach to the prevention of disease can play a significant role in turning back chronic disease in Australia. She's a strong advocate within the medical establishment and to governments for a pre-emptive model of health care, one that aspires to both prevent chronic disease and to accompany patients back towards well being.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Internationally recognised economist, educator and host of the podcast EconTalk, Dr Russ Roberts, discusses wealth and inequality under capitalism and questions whether there is real harm in inequality. Rather, in distinguishing inequality from poverty he says it's the damage from poverty, not inequality, that's more deserving of public concern and political focus. In a wide ranging discussion, we discuss whether the rich really deserve their spoils, how rigged the system actually is, and whether economics as a discipline is able to incorporate all the crucial non monetary aspects of life, like dignity and self fulfillment. Russ RobertsRuss is the President of Shalem College in Jerusalem and the John and Jean De Nault Research Fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. The author of three fiction novels, Russ sought to popularise economic ideas like wealth creation, the unseen forces that sustain economic opportunity and the morality of the marketplace. His passion for teaching and education led him into the world of rap where he produced blockbuster videos on the giants of economics, John Maynard Keynes and FA Hayek.Russ hosts the podcast EconTalk and in his latest book Wild Problems: A Guide to the Decisions that Define Us he dissects the challenge of making big life decisions - like whether to marry or have children - when there is little analytical evidence to guide us.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

International scholar and doyen of critical race theory Prof Ian Haney Lopez and writer and entrepreneur Chloe Valdary are powerful voices in the strident and polarising debates surrounding identity politics. In this episode, we explore the shift in the understanding of racism, from the traditional liberal notion that we should treat everyone equally, to a politics actually based on race consciousness and racial identity. We look at where this shift is helpful, and where it might be less helpful. Does it give us the tools to see through structural racism and unconscious biases and to end racial injustice? Or does this ideology drive a wedge between us, treating us as groups and not individuals, making us feel further apart and less inclined to care for each other? In this conversation, Chloe and Ian bring their very different perspectives, exposing where the intellectual faultlines exist, all within a fierce shared commitment to racial justice.~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

What do we do with our mental suffering? From everyday anger and disappointments, to life defining moments of grief and pain, we are all dealing with our emotional life, much of which can be challenging. In this episode we are going to explore two great models - meditation and psychoanalysis, to look at what they have in common and how they differ. Meditation, particularly mindfulness meditation, has made its way into the west and permeates so much of society these days. The catchphrase mindfulness has become a mantra for how we're meant to approach everything, from how we eat to what we wear. But meditation itself asks us to do what many find unbearable. To simply sit and to become aware of our thoughts and feelings. In creating this little gap, their grip on us loosens. This is generally where meditation stops. At a calmer, more peaceful, more ‘in control' place. But Buddhism, the spiritual tradition we most associate with meditation, sees meditation as a key stone on the path to no less than spiritual enlightenment itself. A journey into the dissolution of the ego (in a traditional sense) and a return to a pure state of awareness. Psychoanalysis comes from an entirely different tradition but strangely shares much overlap with meditation. It too asks us to stop, to listen to our inner voices, and to create a gap of analysis between ourselves and the forces that move and shake us so vigorously. It sees humans as a bundle of contradictory impulses with much of our deep self hidden within our subconscious, out of view of our conscious minds. It sees our suffering coming from adaptations we had to form in childhood which kept us safe and still keep us safe from painful feelings. We can see them in our patterns of behavior and we can only break their spell if we're prepared to open ourselves up to the repressed and often painful moments that we hide from. All of this plays out in the very live dynamic between patient and the analyst in the room. Psychoanalysis doesn't promise happiness. It recognises that suffering is a part of life, and it helps us to a life of greater depth, meaning and growth. Both meditation and psychoanalysis ask us to sit with ourselves, often uncomfortably. But where meditation turns us finally towards the pure space of awareness, psychoanalysis sees healing in unravelling the knot of our selves. To help us through this, we have Buddhist nun and teacher Samaneri Jayasara and psychoanalyst Sonia Wechsler.Samaneri Jayasara has studied and practised Buddhism and meditation for over 35 years.She has a PhD and Master's Degree in education, focusing on comparative spiritual traditions, Buddhism and psychotherapy. She has taught at secondary, undergraduate and post-graduate levels in psychology and counselling, and also worked as a trainer in mental health and crisis intervention in the welfare sector. Sonia Wechsler is a Clinical Psychologist and Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychoanalyst with over 20 years of clinical experience. She completed her psychoanalytic training with the Sydney Institute of Psychoanalysis and has presented clinical papers on psychoanalysis at national and international conferences. She consults to a number of non-government organisations and Headspace.

When someone breaks the law, most of us have an instinct that they should be punished. In fact, that they deserve to be punished. At the base of this is a sense that we are morally responsible for our actions and we should get our ‘just deserts' if we make bad choices. This assumption is deeply encoded in the criminal law itself. Sure, there are other reasons we may want to put criminals behind bars – keeping society safe, deterring others from committing the same crime, even rehabilitation. But deep down lies the instinct of ‘retribution', that a person who has done wrong just deserves to be punished for their wrongdoing. But why do they? Well, at the root of it is our cherished belief that we have ‘free will'. That we make our decisions freely and that we can choose to act differently. Our guest Gregg Carusso rejects this idea entirely. He sees free will as an illusion. He asks us to consider a justice system built entirely without retributive justice, where no one is imprisoned because they ‘deserve' to be punished. Gregg is Professor of Philosophy, State University New York, Corning, Honorary Professor at Sydney's Macquarie University and Co Director of the Justice Without Retribution Network at the University of Aberdeen, Scotland. In his latest book Just Deserts, Gregg debates with fellow philosopher Daniel C Dennett moral responsibility, punishment and free will. Our other guest, Katrina Sifferd believes the justice system can and should be grounded in a concept of free will. She shares some concerns with Gregg that the system is at times overly punitive, but believes that we have the capacity to act as morally responsible individuals. In fact, in her book ‘Responsible Brains', she looks at the neuroscience at work in our brain, and sees our ‘executive function' as the seat of our moral responsibility. Katrina is professor and chair of philosophy at Chicago's Elmurst University and co editor in chief of the publication Neuro-ethics. Katrina earned a Juris Doctorate and has worked on criminal justice projects for the US National Institute of Justice. She is the author of numerous articles and book chapters on responsibility, criminal law and punishment.

Immigration is such a hot topic. Our borders are, in a sense, our collective skin and the question of who we let in seems to activate our primal instincts. Who comes in can feel and can at times be dangerous. Yet we want new ideas, new brain and brawn-power to fuel our country. A larger population can bring greater economic growth and prosperity. And with fertility rates below replacement level in most wealthy countries, our population will decline without immigration. There's our sense of identity at stake as well – who are we as a nation? Are we defined through an ethnicity or particularly culture, as many nations today still are? Or do we define ourselves through our heritage, our stories, our values? The lens we bring to immigration often colours our reading of the facts. Do immigrants ‘take our jobs' or do they add to the pool of consumers and producers that make us bigger and more interesting? Are immigrants more likely to turn to crime, or are they in fact harder working than the local population? Will they join and grow the story of our nation, or will they remain foreign? But most importantly for this episode, how many immigrants can our natural environment and our infrastructure bear before the burden outweighs the benefits for the local population? And are these hard limits or can we invent and invest our way out of them? To help us through this, we have George Megalogenis and Bob Carr. George Megalogenis is a strong advocate for greater immigration. He's a journalist and author of five books including The Australian Moment which won the 2013 Prime Minister's Literary Award for Non-fiction and formed the basis for his three-part ABC documentary series Making Australia Great. George's other books include Faultlines, The Longest Decade, Australia's Second Chance, The Football Solution and Balancing Act.Former Foreign Affairs Minister and the longest continuously serving Premier of New South Wales, Bob Carr, is an author of multiple books and is currently Professor of Climate and Business at the Institute of Sustainable Futures at the University of Technology Sydney.

Up until not that long ago, storytellers were encouraged to flex their creative muscles, to look outside themselves, and armed with their imagination as well as a lot of research, to bring to life characters, stories and worlds that they didn't inhabit themselves, often worlds vastly different to the culture they've grown up in. But relatively recently, storytellers have received a huge challenge from the progressive left, a challenge that has now permeated the creative arts. It suggests that entering other cultures, particularly marginalised ones, and telling stories of their people, drawing from the well of their cultural reservoir, is akin to an act of theft. The critique goes further than theft though. It includes other challenges: if you're from a dominant culture, and you're telling stories of people that your culture has historically colonised or oppressed, then you are effectively compounding the oppression, as you are once again taking their voices and imposing your narrative on theirs. There's a question of authenticity as well: because you, the writer, are not from their culture, do not have their lived experience, then you can never truly represent them except in an inauthentic and often demeaning way. No matter how much research you do, you'll at best create a pale imitation of an authentically voiced story, and at worst you'll create two dimensional, dangerously cliched, even racist caricatures. This is highly complex ground, with issues of creativity, aesthetic merit, theft, caricatures, of power and colonisation, all competing to control the narrative of who has the right to tell stories. Our two guests, Daniel Browning and James O Young, share a great sensitivity to culture, to forms of oppression, and to the power of storytelling. But they've come to very different views on cultural appropriation in storytelling. Daniel Browning is an Aboriginal Australian journalist, radio broadcaster, sound artist and writer. He presents The Art Show on Radio National and is the ABC's Editor of Indigenous Radio. A visual arts graduate, Daniel is also a widely published freelance writer on the arts and culture. Daniel is a descendant of the Bundjalung and Kullilli peoples of far northern New South Wales and south-western Queensland. James O. Young is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Victoria in Canada. He specialises in philosophical issues related to the arts and has written several books including Cultural Appropriation of the Arts (2008). He was elected to the Royal Society of Canada in 2015.~~~~You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

In this episode, we explore the two great movements of the political right - liberalism of the right and conservatism. They are such different political philosophies, yet they share the same bed, uneasily much of the time, in right wing politics. By liberalism, we mean the political philosophy that champions individual rights and freedoms, private property and equality before the law. It's linked with the rise of democracies and of capitalism, replacing social structures defined by hereditary, class and gender privilege as well as the divine right of kings. Today, liberalism crosses over the left and the right of politics in most western countries. The left leaning or progressive liberals focus most heavily on the equality side, ensuring that people are not just treated equally under law but that the race itself is fair. Liberalism of the right however, the one we're focused on in this episode, is much more concerned with individual freedoms, individual responsibility, property rights and equality before the law. It wants to ensure that, wherever you start the journey of life, you are given the opportunity to succeed based on your merit and ambition. The other great movement of the right, conservatism, is in one sense a stance, an attitude that is suspicious of change and asks us to proceed with caution, knowing that social order is easy to break and hard to build. But it's also a political philosophy that values traditions, customs, a common moral code, authority, loyalty to community and country, focusing on duties rather than rights. The purpose of this episode is to explore these two great movements of the political right, which clash and crash into each other, competing for dominance, as we look at which one offers the best model for society. Our two guests are Tim Wilson MP and Gray Connolly. Tim Wilson is a Federal Liberal Member in the Australian Parliament and is Chair of the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Economics. He was formerly Australia's Human Rights Commissioner. Tim is a strong advocate for protecting free speech and freedom of religion. His book The New Social Contract; Renewing the Liberal Vision for Australia, passionately champions liberal ideals of the right. Gray Connolly is a Barrister, lectures in Australian Constitutional Law, and has advised the Australian Government on national security matters. He is a Lieutenant Commander in the Royal Australian Navy and has served on deployments all over the world. Gray is a passionate conservative and a frequent conservative panellist for ABC radio and television, as well as publishing articles in various journals. Both Tim and Gray sit firmly within the right rather than the Left of politics. But they advocate for very different models of society. Tim has said that conservatism offers little or nothing to young Australians. And Gray has dismissed liberalism as naïve. But they have great respect for each other in this fascinating conversation. ~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

What do we do, as a society, with people who want to die? We're talking here about those with a terminal illness, who know that the rest of their waking hours will be filled with much pain, and who want to choose when and how to end it. Do we have the right to end our life on our terms, or is life so precious that even we can't extinguish it? And if we do open the door, what are the potential pitfalls? Could it be used against the vulnerable, manipulating those who feel like a burden? And are there other slippery slopes to be wary of which may open the door too wide? What's the most compassionate thing to do, and how does all of this feed into the medical professions' duty of care? There's a lot at stake with legislation going through parliament in countries all around the world. To help us through, we have award-winning writer, performer, and producer Andrew Denton. Andrew has devoted this stage of his career advocating for Voluntary Assisted Dying through his organisation Go Gentle Australia. His two podcast series Better Off Dead have helped inform the debate around end-of-life choices. We also have Bernadette Tobin, a passionate advocate against voluntary euthanasia. Bernadette is director of the Plunkett Centre for Ethics at St Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, and Reader in Philosophy at Australian Catholic University. Bernadette has Honorary Appointments in the Medical Faculties of both the University of New South Wales (via the Clinical School at St Vincent's) and the University of Sydney (via the Clinical School at the Children's Hospital at Westmead). She is a member of the Pontifical Academy for Life. ~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

We chat to Emile Sherman of Academy Award, BAFTA and Emmy winning See-Saw Films about his 20 years' worth of experience going  from a boots on the ground producer to leading an international film and television production company and the lessons he's learned along the way. We pick his brain about co-productions, indie film financing, being one of the first companies to transition to cinematic television and the importance of trust in the film business.

Why is it so important to understand other points of view? How do we escape our own bubbles of bias? And when should we stop listening and focus on winning? In this special episode, we shine a light on the ‘Principle of Charity' itself. We look at what exactly it is and why it's so important. We then go one layer deeper and ask when it might be problematic or unhelpful to use it. To do all of this, we have the fabulous Tim Minchin. Tim is a renowned musician, comedian, composer, actor and writer. He's best known for his extraordinarily clever and memorable songs, as well as his work as composer and lyricist of two hit West End and Broadway musicals, Matilda and Groundhog Day, both of which won the Olivier Award for Best West End Musical and garnered Tony Award nominations. Tim is passionate about the need to have more respectful conversations and is an advocate for science and reason. He created the poem, book and animation Storm that brilliantly dramatises the philosophy of science. Most importantly, he came up with the name for our podcast. ~~ You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.

Everyone is talking about “social impact”, or “purpose”, as a way for business to deliver greater good to society. But does having a social purpose actually help society any more than a business just focused on making goods that people want to buy, for profit? Is social impact hollow virtue signaling, a marketing tool to make customers feel warm and fuzzy? Or does it in fact signal a profound shift in our attitude to capitalism, where the common good is finally put first, where it belongs? With a global impact investment market at $715 billion worldwide, ESG (Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance) assets under management of $38 trillion, and businesses everywhere writing their impact manifestos, the stakes are high. Andy Kuper is the CEO of LeapFrog Investments, and a founding father of “profit with purpose” movement. He joins Judith Sloan, Contributing Economics Editor with The Australian newspaper, and a strong advocate for the simplicity of profit, as we deep dive into this fascinating topic. ~~You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.Your hosts are Lloyd Vogelman and Emile Sherman.Find Lloyd @LloydVogelman on Linked inFind Emile @EmileSherman on Linked In and Twitter.This Podcast is Produced by Jonah PrimoFind Jonah @JonahPrimo on Instagram.

We first touch on the perennial question, whether technological disruption, this time in the form of AI, will ultimately eat our jobs so entirely that there's no paid work left for us to do. We then take this prospect seriously enough to ask - will that in fact be a good thing? Is paid employment the cornerstone for the good life; rich with purpose, meaning, providing us the reward for our efforts, keeping us out of mischief, and holding society together? OR, is work, in fact, the pain we go through to have leisure. And freed from work, would we be able to find a greater sense of flourishing, as we use our time for family, community, pursuing interests, or just having fun.We have one of Australia's leading public policy thinkers, John Daley, former CEO of the Grattan Institute, to console us that neither jobs nor the role of paid work, will be going anywhere, anytime. And philosopher Simon Longstaff, executive director of The Ethics Centre, who holds the contrary view, urging us to rethink the role and importance of paid work.You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.Your hosts are Lloyd Vogelman and Emile Sherman.Find Lloyd @LloydVogelman on Linked inFind Emile @EmileSherman on Linked In and Twitter.This Podcast is Produced by Jonah PrimoFind Jonah @JonahPrimo on Instagram.

Leading economist Gigi Foster lets us in on the dirty little secret - our lives have been given a dollar value, and it's used by governments to make a whole range of decisions, from whether we're given that life saving medicine, to when to shut down an economy because of a pandemic. Covid19 has let us into this secret room, as we as a society grapple with how much economic pain we should suffer to protect the lives of the elderly and vulnerable. One of Gigi's most articulate critics, moral philosopher Matt Beard, joins Gigi as we unpack the pros and cons of putting a dollar value on the most precious thing of all - our lives. Gigi Foster is a Professor with the School of Economics at the University of New South Wales. Educated at Yale and the University of Maryland, in 2019 she was named Young Economist of the Year by the Economic Society of Australia. Gigi is one of Australia's leading economics communicators, and co-hosts The Economists, a national economics talk-radio program on ABC Radio National.Matt Beard is a moral philosopher with a background in applied and military ethics. He has taught philosophy and ethics at university for several years. Matt is extensively published, a columnist with New Philosopher magazine, and a podcaster on the ABC's Short & Curly program.Your hosts are Lloyd Vogelman and Emile Sherman.You can be part of the discussion @PofCharity on Twitter, @PrincipleofCharity on Facebook and @PrincipleofCharityPodcast on Instagram.You can find Emile at: @EmileSherman on Twitter, @EmileSherman on Linkedin, You can find Lloyd at: @Lloydvogelman on Linkedin~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Produced by Jonah Primo @Jonahprimo on Instagram.

Media professor and feminist Catharine Lumby sees a role for pornography in a healthy sexual diet, whereas public ethics professor Clive Hamilton has the self-confessed unfashionable view that it's destructive and demeaning. They've clashed in the media, and we bring them together for the first time to see if we can tease out this complex topic, in a conversation that exemplifies the principle of charity. Everyone seems to be looking at pornography but its rarely discussed. 35% of all internet downloads are estimated to be porn-related, and porn sites receive more regular traffic than Netflix, Amazon, & Twitter combined each month. A third of porn users are female, and the industry is estimated to be worth $97 billion worldwide. So is pornography a healthy form of sexual expression, exploration and enjoyment for all these people? And a thriving industry of empowered performers?Or is pornography exploitative, demeaning, and ultimately destructive to our intimate relationships, even sometimes promoting violence against women?Our guests are Catharine Lumby and Clive Hamilton. Catharine is Professor of Media at Sydney University. She's written extensively on this topic as an author, and is a frequent media commentator across print, radio and television. Clive is Professor of Public Ethics at Charles Sturt University. He has held academic positions at the University of Oxford and Yale. Clive was the executive director of public policy think tank The Australian Institute.

Fat Pig Farm owner and author Matthew Evans and vegan animal advocate Ondine Sherman of Voiceless join us to discuss whether it's moral to eat meat. How are we to make sense of the incredibly complex topic of meat. First of all, is it right to take a sentient life? What about our evolution, our nature, our culture, and our taste-buds, all powerful forces that drive most of us to eat meat?Each year over 70 billion land animals and a trillion sea animals are killed for food. The vast majority of land animals live in factory farms.Have we, as a society, sanctioned the way these animals are raised for our consumption? Do we even know what goes on behind those walls?We look at all of this, plus questions like: Can we live healthy lives without meat? How does the raising of animals impact the environment and climate change? What about the huge numbers of animals that are killed growing crops?And what about free range; can we feed the world's growing billions that way, at an affordable price?At the core of all of this, however, are the animals, whose experiences we are only starting to understand. We hold their lives in our hands. Have we fully reckoned with that responsibility?Our guests are Matthew Evans and Ondine Sherman. Matthew is a television presenter and author of the ethical meat eating manifesto “On Eating Meat”. Matthew runs Fat Pig Farm in Tasmania, and sees eating animals, reared humanely, as a key part of our diet. Ondine is managing director of Voiceless, the animal protection institute. Her latest book “Vegan Living” is out now.

An Introduction to Principle of Charity and its hosts, Lloyd Vogelman and Emile Sherman. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Australian producer Emile Sherman shares his insights working on Official Co-productions.

This episode's guest, Rick Kalowski, started his professional career as a lawyer, but turned to screenwriting after his first screenplay got produced, by none other than Emile Sherman.   He went on to become the head writer of sketch comedy show Big Bite and also created At Home With Julia; A show so dangerous, it prompted the Labor party to commission a study to prove it wasn't funny. He's now the Head of Comedy at the ABC and in the episode we discuss all facets of this role. 

Emile Sherman, the Academy Award-winning producer of ‘The King’s Speech’, is one of the world’s most prolific independent film makers. His other credits include ‘Top Of The Lake’, ‘Tracks’, ‘Shame’, ‘Rabbit Proof Fence’ and ‘Macbeth’. I caught up with Emile in his production office in Sydney, where we talked about the power of storytelling, why some ideas resonate with us at a human level, the impact of technology on the TV and film industry, and what business leaders might be able to learn from successful film directors on getting the most out of a team when under creative pressure.
