Om denne podcast
This current affairs podcast hosted by Jonathan Witt and Kanthan Pillay seeks to discuss and challenge those topics which fall within acceptable discourse, while introducing and expanding on ideas outside of the "Overton Window".
In a world of curated information fed to the public by agenda driven corporate media hacks you deserve to be able to think for yourself and come to your own conclusions.
