Summary

This is one of those "flush the pipes" ROMAs, where I talk about a slew of things that seemed unrelated until I started talking about them. By the end, I realized that they're all aspects of the same issue. Anyway, it goes from a defense of Dan Savage to the demise of organized religion to the necessary irrationality of group identity to institutional momentum to whether sex and gender are biological or merely cultural phenomena.

0:19.0	Greetings, Earthlings. Welcome to another edition of tangentially speaking. This is my podcast.
0:35.5	I'm Chris Ryan. Those are the essentials. This is a Roma episode, Roma 45, I do believe.
0:45.8	I've got this file in my computer notes for next podcast. I just jot things down in there.
0:54.3	I mentioned this and mention that. Talk about this and explore your thoughts on that.
0:59.9	When it starts to pile up like a traffic accident on a freeway in Texas, I know it's time for a Roma
1:10.2	because I got to clear this stuff out. It's not fair to just dump it all at the beginning of some
1:14.6	episode with someone suspecting guests who thinks I'm going to, you know, they're on the podcast in the
1:20.7	first 40 minutes. I'm yammering on about stuff that has nothing to do with them. That's not nice.
1:26.3	That's not fair. It's very inconsiderate hosting. So that's why I throw them all into a Roma. So

1:40.2	yammering on about things can wallow in it. So I'm going to be yammering for a while here. But before
1:47.1	I do, I want to tell you that this episode is brought to you by Lilo who make the best

2:04.6	the finest, highest ingredient styling. I won't say they're handcrafted because I don't think they've
2:12.3	got artisans slaving away in a garage somewhere. These are pretty high tech. USB rechargeable,
2:21.3	totally waterproof, high quality silicon. I mean, they don't look like Sex Toys. If you happen to
2:29.6	leave this sitting out and your mother walked in and said, what's that? You could just say that is
2:37.0	a high tech communication device, mom. Be careful. Don't touch any of the buttons. You might call
2:42.7	someone or erase the memory, you know, just just make up some bullshit. She'll never know.
