Greg Scorzo talks to philosopher Piers Benn about his recent book, Intellectual Freedom and the Culture Wars. In this part 1 of a two part podcast, Scorzo and Benn discuss issues that arise in this book, including freedom of speech, the tension between activism and free inquiry, whether enlightenment freedoms are a way for the powerful to subjugate the powerless, whether free speech is right wing, the definition of transphobia, the censoring of Germaine Greer, racism and Halloween costumes, the psychology of Donald Trump, whether the mainstream media is left-wing, and the problem of ideological fanaticism.

LOVE BEFORE COVID PODCAST CHANNEL
https://audioboom.com/channels/5042465-the-love-before-covid-podcast-channel from 3 chapters of Greg Scorzo's debut novel LOVE BEFORE COVID AUDIOPLAY
This unique listening experience, we are taken on a journey through the turbulent love life of our protagonist Joe, via his romantic relationships with two different women, Janet and Lorraine. This is done by eavesdropping on real-time exchanges between the 3 characters. How to navigate that journey, the listener has to decide on their own. Beware, this is not a happy gallop through a RomCom.
LOVE BEFORE COVID is written, devised, directed and scored by philosopher Dr Greg Scorzo. It stars Daniel Ashman and Sarah Dalzell and is narrated by Chris Conway, and produced by Lizzie Soden.
Greg Scorzo's debut novel 'Love Before Covid,' traumatic (sur)realism at it's best. An experimental and extreme collection of real-time dialogues, traversing a complex moral maze of how love is being impacted by gender politics in these polarised political times. Exploring the nature of love and drawing focus to the dark side of romance, procreation and sex, it deals unsparingly with unpredictable behaviour, abuse, depravity and forgiveness. To find out what healthy love could be, this book explores what it shouldn’t be. "Where love rules, there is no will to power, and where power predominates, love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other." - Carl Jung
