The Brainstorm podcast is Saskatchewan’s first skeptic and atheist podcast. An eclectic group of local skeptics discuss a variety of topics relating to science, skepticism, religion and politics while having a few drinks and a few laughs.
“I Think Your Inner Socialist Is Showing” episode link here:
http://brainstormpodcast.ca/i-think-your-inner-socialist-is-showing
Original release date: Jan. 11, 2014
In this episode Lana, Mike and Rene join me (Cory) to talk about some topics I found. In the first part we tackle a few different things from a bit about Duck Dynasty, to responsible journalism, to economic disparity.
Edit: I don’t really remember much about this one except that this was the first time we invited Lana to join the podcast. She was a great addition to the crew. I think this is really where we started to find our stride.
Chris Kluwe’s article about how he was fired from the Minnesota Vikings.

Discussing education I decided it was ok to insult the majority of my podcast compatriots. 🙂 This link is relevant to the monetary value of different types of education that we touched on during this episode and discusses why philosophy is a good choice in your education. http://dornsife.usc.edu/phil/undergraduate/
