Chatter
A series of conversations (some not-so-mindless Chatter if you will) with thought leaders, politicians, YouTubers, academics, authors, and more. I try to explore ideas and ideologies from all walks of life in order to uncover what truth I can and learn some fun stuff along the way! We get deep into politics, philosophy, conspiracies, corruption, finance, technology and history! Chatter is a podcast from https://www.thejist.co.uk, hosted by Josh Hamilton.
