In the wake of civil unrest stemming from police-involved violence against minorities and tactics in suppressing protests, the notion of 'Defunding' police has gained traction. Some want to abolish police altogether, others believe diverting money from police budgets to social services will see an increase in positive outcomes. Is either side right? Is either side wrong? Will diverting police funding be a panacea or a pitfall?
Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) and Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) weight into this fractious debate and, even they can't fully agree with each other. Engaging and maybe enraging. Have a listen, then comment and share/Like the podcast.

Broken Clock: Is Defunding The Police Logical?
There's a lot of chatter on social media about defunding police departments, eith reducing and re-allocating fuding or abolishing police completely, replaced by citizen patrols. The emotion behind it can be seen in the unrest in the US and parts of Canada, but where's the logic?? This question's the starting point for a wide-ranging dialogue between Liana Kerzner (@redlianak) and Maus Merryjest about just how deep and messy the issues are that manifest in police brutality.
At FU_Politics we take essential conversations and bring them down-to-earth. No paid pundits or poilitics proxies, no jargon or textbook terminology, just clever, insightful takes on today's most pressing issues.

Ed puts it into DRIVE with this episode recorded while driving (don't worry, it's safe, it's like using your phone hands-free but talking to yourself)!
In this podcast Ed unleashes about: Protests against racial inequality and poor policing, riots, shit-disturbers, anarchists; when causing property damage is a legitimate statement; the hand-wringing drama of guilt-ridden White liberals; why Antifa isn't real; there's no such thing as gourmet hot dogs, how to make a proper grilled-cheese sandwich and some must-see TV recommendations. How's that for eclectic?

Stephen Lautens (@stephenlautens) and Steven Kerzner (@stevenjkerzner) are joined by podcaster and political commentator Neil Waytowich (@waytowichneil), former host of the weekly FU_Politics Zodcast, to discuss the "mad as hell and not gonna take it anymore" protests by people of colour and their allies across North America. There's no question that Black Lives Matter, but how do white people help make that more than a slogan or hashtag? We offer some suggestions and perspectives. Hard-hitting, honest and non-nonsense.

If you are listening to this - you are probably privileged. Having access to the internet and time to use it puts us above many who don't. And if you've never had to worry about a police car driving by while you're minding your own business, you have it better than any person of colour.
If the events of 2020 and especially the last few weeks have taught us anything it's that most of us don't know how 'the other half' lives. we respond in horror to the destruction and violence that are tied into the protests in the US while overlooking the destruction of the lives of people of colour and the economic and physical violence they live under every day, generation after generation.
It's past time we use the benefits we've received from being born Caucasian to help People of Colour navigate the waters we have already crossed, instead of keeping silent or using our benefits as a weapon to keep others from catching up.
Ask yourself: have you been so caught up in your own challenges that you have blinded yourself to the struggles of others? The ideology that there's equal opportunity for everyone to better themselves is clearly false. It's time to relax our defensiveness, understand where the anger of people of colour iis coming from, and see ourselves through the eyes of others and open ourselves to their lived experiences, perspectives and opinions.
Acknowledging another's pain does not mean you can't feel your own, it's not a competition. We cannot truly win unless everyone wins. So how will you use your privilege today to make the life of someone else brighter?
It's time to think, talk, engage and act.

Comedy legend (we don't know why) Jerry Lewis once said : "A woman doing comedy doesn't offend me but sets me back a bit. I, as a viewer, have trouble with it. I think of her as a producing machine that brings babies in the world."
Wow.
But is there some truth to that? Are women as funny as men? Are there societal expectations and constructs that female comics face that men don't? Or are men just funnier? Don't get angry, listen to the podcast!
