Economists like to think of their discipline as a rational science. But might we make better decisions if we ditched some of our moral aversions? Specifically: would we make better choices if we learned to conquer moral repugnance? Alvin Roth, Nobel laureate, and author of the recent book ‘Moral Economics', tells host Soumaya Keynes why a free market in kidneys and surrogacy makes economic sense, and what he makes of prediction markets.The inaugural FT Weekend Festival in New York City is fast approaching, with a line-up featuring Paul Krugman, Martin Wolf, Gillian Tett, and plenty more.

Taboos are generally things that are considered "forbidden" by society for various reasons, but what we start with are personal taboos rather than at the society level, but we do talk about that too. Taboos for me in humour are animal cruelty, sexual violence, racism, sexism and ableism, all to varying degrees but animal cruelty is the main one. I really hate it when a joke involves killing or harming an animal. When it comes to personal taboos I don't tend to become a "Karren" about it, when I personally have an issue with a type of humour I'll generally turn away from it rather than assume everyone thinks like me and go on a tirade. Society level taboos are different, sometimes it's culturally based, like taboos about comedy based on religion, national heroes, nationalism, etc, it could be political, it can be touchy subjects like racism, sexual violence, cannibalism, sexism etc, or even silly things like toilet humour and bodily functions! There can be good reasons for both avoiding taboos completely and also tackling them head on directly. One of my favourite TV sitcoms is It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia which makes a point of constantly taking taboos head on. A general rule about taboos and touchy subjects in humour is to "punch up" rather than "punch down", which means it's not cool to go after the vulnerable, instead go after the empowered and entitled. But that doesn't mean you should infantilise the groups you deem worthy of protecting and treat them like that have no agency or humour, that can be just exactly as bad as attacking them directly because in both instances you are dehumanising them. A great instance of tackling a taboo in humour is Robert Downey Jnr's blackface in Tropic Thunder. Blackface is a taboo because it was about creating a dehumanising caricature of black people in order to denigrate them. The blackface in Tropic thunder isn't used that way at all, it's making fun of the character who is doing the blackface, his entitlement, overweening arrogance and gall to think he should be able to get away with it, as well as the ridiculousness of the situation. Do you have personal taboos that you don't joke about? Or do you think it's a good idea to make jokes about certain taboos in humour? -Waning- I recount a horrible, awful sexist joke near the end of the cast as an example and Tantz Aerine demolishes it with humour showing a good way to deal with such a thing.

Policies like DEI, affirmative action, and other race-based policies claim to embrace diversity. The Jussie Smollett case initially made people aware of racial issues, but the event turned out to be a highly publicized hate crime hoax. Why do race-based policies fail to realistically achieve success in solving social issues? Dr. Wilfred Reilly, professor at Kentucky State University, shares how race-based policies further divide ethnic groups and contribute to racial divisions. He advocates for greater awareness to mitigate the spread and effects of such policies.Check out Wilfred's website! https://wilfredreilly.com/Check out Wilfred's books below!Lies My Liberal Teacher Told MeHate Crime Hoax: How the Left is Selling a Fake Race WarTaboo: 10 Facts You Can't Talk AboutSupport the showVisit georgewashingtoninstitute.org to sign up for our e-mail list!

What Jessica Is Sipping Casa Martinez Wines Bonitas 2023 Chenin Blanc. Light, crisp, a little grassy, with apple in the back. Jessica's words: "That's really good." High praise, coming from her. Casa Martinez is out of the Napa area, founded by Daniel Martinez, whose Pinot Noir called Camila donates proceeds to care for his daughter. Episode Description Ven siéntate, porque this one is going to stay with you. This week, Jessica sits down with award-winning activist filmmaker, top 100 podcaster, sought-after international speaker, and now author Denise Soler Cox for a conversation that had Jessica reaching for tissues before they even got into the chisme. And honestly? Same. Denise is the creative force behind the documentary Being Enye and the upcoming book What Will They Say? (Simon & Schuster, August 18th), and she joins Wine & Chisme to talk about the secrets we carry, the taboos baked into our cultura, and why so many Latinas feel both seen and shackled by the very values that raised us. This is not just an interview. It's a mirror. In This Episode Jessica and Denise get into the real stuff, including how a night at a bar in Miami in the 90s planted the seed for a documentary that would go on to reach listeners in 32 countries. Denise shares the three-part storytelling framework from Harvard professor Marshall Ganz, the one that helped her understand why Being Enyé resonated so far beyond what she ever expected, and how it laid the foundation for the book she has been building for years. They talk about the moment at age 9 that Denise carried silently for decades, the power of finally putting it on the page, and why she believes telling that story was the only way to truly reclaim it. Denise also opens up about losing over $200,000 in speaking revenue when DEI cuts swept through corporate America, and why that painful chapter made the book more honest than she ever thought she could be. Jessica brings her whole self to this one too. She shares her own experience navigating second-gen identity, the guilt of not carrying the same burdens as her first-gen friends, and the realization, mid-read of Denise's first chapter, that Wine & Chisme itself might be rooted in something far deeper than she had ever let herself acknowledge. They also dig into why Latinas are leaving corporate America faster than any other group, what the physics concept of thermal equilibrium has to do with the secrets we keep, and how a preemptive offer from Simon & Schuster on Valentine's Day two years ago became the moment Denise finally stopped settling. About Denise Soler Cox After going from stay-at-home mom to award-winning activist filmmaker, Denise Soler Cox has spent over a decade on a mission to transform how we think and speak about culture, identity, and belonging. Her documentary Being Enyé has been screened internationally and led her to 400+ stages, including two TEDx talks. She has partnered with brands like Ralph Lauren, Amazon, Progressive, and Microsoft, and has been featured on NBC Nightly News, CNN, PBS, Forbes, Telemundo, and more. Her debut book What Will They Say? is published by Simon & Schuster under the Primeros Sueños Press imprint and releases August 18th, just ahead of Hispanic Heritage Month.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, KJ sits down with Tracy MacNeal, CEO of Maternal Medical, to discuss a long-overlooked crisis in women's health: birth injuries. Tracy reveals how 10-15% of women who deliver vaginally experience severe pelvic floor trauma—injuries that often go undiagnosed and untreated for years. She shares how her company is developing groundbreaking technology to prevent these injuries during childbirth and why this space has been so dramatically underinvested. This conversation exposes the silence around maternal health and the urgent need for innovation in the delivery room. Four Key Takeaways: [11:28] The Hidden Epidemic of Birth Injuries - 10-15% of women who deliver vaginally suffer pelvic floor muscles torn off the bone—an injury only visible through ultrasound or MRI. This leads to pelvic organ prolapse, incontinence, and chronic pain, yet most women leave the hospital without knowing they've been injured. [5:22] Innovation Has Been Stalled for 80 Years - The epidural, introduced in the 1940s, was the last major innovation in labor and delivery. Unlike other medical fields that see constant advancement, maternal health has been dramatically underinvested, creating an anemic ecosystem for research and development. [20:12] Smart Technology That Listens to the Body - Maternal Medical's device gently pre-stretches the birth canal by listening to the mother's tissue and only expanding one millimeter at a time when the body relaxes. In clinical trials of over 200 patients, the device group had zero injuries compared to 11% in the control group. [30:58] The Power of Speaking Up - Women's silence about their symptoms has perpetuated the problem. When women speak up about birth injuries, it signals to investors that patients care and pushes physicians to prioritize these issues. Advocacy drives innovation and funding in healthcare. Quote of the Show (28:27):"Unless she's a fighter pilot, having a baby is the most dangerous thing most women will ever do."- Tracy MacNeal Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Send a textLet's face it. It seems that whenever man puts his hand on something spiritual, he messes it up. God has done so many things for people and He has also siplified them for our understanding. Yet, man has a way of turning the into something different from what God intended.In this message you will learn about five taboos that are not the will of God but man has embraced them as something spiritual. Perhaps it may even be a wake-up call for you.
Rory McGowan talks to Chris Wilson, the CEO of Golden Charter, about new data revealing how the fear of talking about funeral plans with loved ones is costing families more in funeral costs, and funeral poverty more widely. They discuss how 4 in 5 people haven't told their families about what they'd like about their funerals, and how doing so can ease the shock and grief that bereavement can bring to an individual or a family.
Maddy is back to talk about the film Bodies, Bodies, Bodies from 2022, a cool, thriller-horror film that plays on the generational zeitgeist of Gen Z. We talk about how the film reflects cultural fears, cultural fetishes, and unspeakable taboos, and how it keeps us all engaged by appealing to our preexisting cultural stereotypes, our natural reaction to protect certain groups of people while fearing others, and a generational gap that has many Gen Zers stuck on their phones living a life that's fake, digital, and maybe where we are all headed in the future.

Tricia shares her honest thoughts on what would actually bother her at a wedding and what really doesn't matter at all.

Welcome back to another episode of Moment of Silence. You already know why you clicked, so let's not pretend. We're diving headfirst into this week's main character energy topic: taboo relationships. From porn and taboos being way too closely related, to the icks all thanks to the internet trends. Splitsvilla obsession, and how that chaos spilled straight into Lollapalooza. We're further unpacking age gaps, financial gaps, and the very real fitness gap (we just invented), Inter-caste, queer, lavender relationships — if it makes society uncomfortable, it made it to this episode.And let's be honest — is content creation secretly one of the most classist industries out there? We also switch gears into solving your problems — where the real villains are usually your uncle, your cousin, and sometimes, your own mother. We also introduce the 7-7-7 rule to keep romance alive and our very real takes on celebs still living in the closet. Oh, and we have a hard list of people you should never date — even if they're the last option on Earth. Not done yet. We also talked about Budget 2026 (yes, against our will), gave a round of applause to the smartest women in Meerut & more. If you're still here, help us hit 100k and become part of the chaos.Chaptering- 00:00 – We're back 00:44 – You clicked because you're nosy.

HI friends! This week, my guest is the legendary fringe culture author, Robert Guffey! Robert has been writing about conspiracy culture for years now, and has contributed a lot wildly fascinating stories, books, magazine articles to this field of interest. On this episode, we spend most of the time discussing his new book Hollywood Haunts the World, which focuses on encoded cinema and cultural taboos.

Femicide is not just a word. It's a tragedy, and a manifestation of the deep-rooted inequality women face in every corner of society. It's not just the tragic end of a life; it's the culmination of years of violence, abuse, and power imbalances that have been allowed to fester unchecked.Unfortunately, despite legal advancements, femicides remain a persistent issue across Europe. Some countries have introduced comprehensive laws to combat gender-based violence. But others still lack legal recognition of femicide as a distinct crime. In turn, the lack of official data about femicides in several countries further obscures the true scale of the problem. So, why, then, is the legal recognition of femicides a taboo? And, beyond that, are we doing enough as societies to respond effectively to femicides? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Jeff Pike grew up surrounded by law enforcement — his father was a sheriff and later a Deputy U.S. Marshal — so from the time he was 13, he was visiting jails and crime scenes instead of playgrounds. Following in his father's footsteps felt inevitable. After becoming a game warden in Virginia, Jeff transitioned into undercover police work, where he took on some of the wildest cases imaginable — from major drug operations to male prostitution stings and violent street investigations. As his career grew, Jeff joined the sheriff's department, working deep inside the criminal underworld. But over time, he began to see the other side of policing — the corruption, the internal politics, and the moral conflicts that come with trying to do the right thing in a broken system. Eventually, he made the difficult choice to walk away from law enforcement altogether and start over as a private detective. #UndercoverCop #LockedInWithIanBick #TrueCrime #PoliceStories #LawEnforcement #RealStories #CriminalUnderworld #crimedocumentary Thanks to AURA FRAMES, BLUECHEW & PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode: Aura Frames: Exclusive $35 off Carver Mat at https://on.auraframes.com/LOCKEDIN.

Is it imaginable that freedom of speech and freedom of religion could be suppressed where we live at some time in our future? History would indicate so. How do we prepare ourselves and our families for such a contingency? What curriculum might best prepare us for persecution, even martyrdom?

Today's episode is part of our Christian parenting mini-series we are offering on “Motherhood Taboos” and we are tackling a big taboo of finding out you're pregnant ... and you weren't planning to be. Our guests are both priests who found themselves unexpectedly pregnant and want to narrate the grief and the joy, the surprise and the wonder, and the challenge and hope of a blessing that can leave you limping from a worldview that supports women's autonomy, choice, and freedom. MORE ABOUT OUR GUESTS:Rev. Mia Kano is an Episcopal priest in the Diocese of Massachusetts, where she serves as the part-time Rector of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Ayer. She lives in Acton, Massachusetts with her husband and two children. Rev. Mia's childhood was shaped by both Catholic and Congregationalist churches. She found her way to the Episcopal Church in her early twenties after exploring secular humanism and Islam. She was ordained as a priest in January 2020. Rev. Reagan Gonzalez was born in Odessa, Texas and raised in Bozeman, Montana. She grew up attending St. James Episcopal Church in Bozeman and later served as its Youth Director and Christian Formation Director before attending seminary. She is a graduate of Montana State University with a degree in Microbiology. After college, Reagan spent a year living in intentional community during a year of service with the Episcopal Service Corps. This experience deepened her faith and confirmed a desire to formally discern a call to ordained ministry. She earned an MDiv from the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas and was ordained to the priesthood in 2018. Reagan has a passion for community life that is grounded in inclusivity. She loves to preach, teach, tell Godly Play stories to children, and introduce people to an open-minded Christianity where questions are welcomed, and where we trust that we learn best by struggling together to hear where the Holy Spirit is calling.

Today's episode is part of our Christian parenting mini-series we are offering on “Motherhood Taboos” and we've invited author, preacher, and friend The Rev. Teresa Kim Pecinovsky to talk with us about maternal images of God in Scripture. She's an expert because she wrote one of our favorite children's books, Mother God! While Scripture is PACKED with feminine and maternal images of God, you don't often hear those images highlighted in the pulpit or in the Christian book aisle. Rev. Teresa is one of our favorite preachers and writers working to change that for littles and grown-ups alike, and she talks about taking the approach of writing a children's book to dismantle oppressive images from infancy onwards. Her Scripture guide for maternal images of God is here, just scroll to the bottom of the page! More about Rev.

Today's episode is part of our Christian parenting mini-series we are offering on “Motherhood Taboos” - the topics that are on many parents' hearts and minds and yet are not discussed in public very often. Motherhood can be physically, emotionally, and mentally very demanding. These three things can snowball which can leave mothers feeling very isolated and alone. We are delighted to have a friend and Licensed Professional Counsellor, Tori Andrews on the podcast to discuss this taboo of maternal mental health with us! To connect and/or to learn more about Tori, you can visit her website here: everbloomingwellness.com.+++Like what you hear? We are an entirely crowd-sourced, you-funded project.
