The Blue Collar Philosophers Podcast

How do we Consider the god of AA?

What is there to be said about a god of your own understanding? When you feel like you no longer matter enough to justify our own well being you need to turn to an idea bigger than yourself, amazing but still understandable.
Does it give you a strong foundation or set you up for failure? Is the net good worth the identity shortfalls?
so many questions.

Crime without punishment and but death.

Times are tough and the government isn't helping in the way they're trying to. "Do you know what FSJ needs? More homeless" so they ship up 300 from the lower mainland thinking that they will take advantage of the economic success that we've seen up here. Some do, most don't but many die. Many resort to breaking the law to get by or  get a fix. It's not just lack of opportunity or mental health, some don't want to be helped.

Liars, Tyrants and Nazi's! Oh my!

In the last year the Canadian government brought an actual Nazi soldier to the floor of the Canadian parliament and got a standing O, and the world forgot. Tuckers most recent interview brought it back into the lime light.
History is so much messier than we would desire it to be.
Maybe humility is the key.

OH MAN!!!! A talking snake!?!? Feat: Amanda

Amanda joins us to discuss a strange part of the Adam and Eve story, the talking snake. Isn't it insane that nowhere in the text does it say that other animals could speak but except this snake and it was never said to be odd.
Unfortunately, it takes a long time to get to that part of the conversation. before that we talk about fasting, what does it mean to worship, why Amanda is a bad story teller and  so much more.

Direct Democracy? Feat: Justin Butts

Direct Democracy: a form of government in which policies and laws are decided by a majority of all those eligible rather than by a body of elected representatives
Could this ever be a thing? good idea? bad idea? pipe dream or just another crack pot idea thought up by idealists to create a perfect utopia. Oh the dreamers they must be.
And of course it wouldn't be complete without Mikes crazy thoughts on "Safety Meeting" I guess. He doesn't have to say everything that pops into his head.

Going 'Unscripted' Feat: Kevin Willeboordse

Great conversation Featuring Kevin Willeboordse of the 'Kevin Unscripted' podcast

For a further in-depth look at the Convoy check out the documentary: Unacceptable?

The Will & Dave Show feat.The BCPs and Justin Butts

Agree to disagree or not?
This week we sit in with The Will & Dave show. This was a very fun conversation with Dave and our very good Friend Will Smith. How should we disagree and is everything Dave's fault?

HappyNew Year! 2024! New year, new and improved BCP!

Happy new year from the BCP, we  talk about so much. New Years resolutions and spending too much time with friends and family. Is there such thing as too much family? Mike might be the bad guy but he's doing his best.

Justin and Will go to war!!!Where’s the fighting?

This one is definitely being removed from YouTube.
On this Episode, we sit down with Will Smith and Justin Butts Sit Down to discuss their disagreements and end up ganging up on BikerMic. This one was one that we've been wanting to do but uncertain if it was gonna be taking advantage of a friendly disagreement.
