Summary

In light of the Extinction Rebellion protests, Geoff is honest about his own careless relationship with the planet. There’s a broadside against Co-op for hopping on the corporate virtue signalling band-wagon by de-gendering the gingerbread man. We also look at the increasing pressure on men to look good and how that might end up with women being the dirty old men of the future. Finally, this week’s men’s mental health focus is on being present in the moment, staying focused... sorry I switched off.

0:05.5	Hello and welcome to episode
0:13.1	What Most People Think, whatever made you subscribe to this, download this,
0:19.9	I just want to say thank you thank you for doing
0:21.7	that uh if you're new to the podcast this is well this is like uh it's a show about politics
0:27.0	social issues men's issues and stuff but it's it's coming out from from the idea that that most people
0:33.7	the overwhelming majority of people are decent and it also comes from the idea that outside,
0:38.7	you know, outside the liberal bubble, I know it's become a cliche, but it's come a cliche because
0:42.1	it is a thing. I would argue that the liberal bubble isn't even a bubble anymore. It's becoming
0:47.2	a bunker. They're embedding themselves further in. So, so, but obviously most people live outside of that. So this show is just trying to
0:55.8	get grips with, what it is, just have reasonable opinions on the hot button issues of the day.
1:01.1	That sounded wank, didn't it? That sounded awful. The hot button issues of the day, a sideways

1:45.7	you know not to them i'd imagine you know they were just uh they're just carrying out all the son
1:51.2	then then you're into a murky air like hitler was bad son hitler was bad the geese is just
