Crime and Punishment

The sweet-sixteenth episode, in four parts. Discussed: Part 1 - police interrogation videos on YouTube, To Catch a Predator, the Jussie Smollett scandal, getting punched in the face, and victimhood as currency; Part 2 - assessing my teachers this semester, announcing our podcast MVP, anxiety, and the "cushion of experience"; Part 3 - Dostoyevsky, getting caught smoking at boarding school, my grades this semester, and the cosmic law in Crime and Punishment; Part 4 - being sick, recounting my holiday vacation, Dostoyevsky vs. the progressive left, the cults of cultural politics, and the need for authoritarianism in art. Mentioned: Matt Evans (our podcast MVP of 2019!). Music: "Adventure" by Disasterpeace.
