In this season finale, we will discuss what it truly means to be politically engaged as well as dig into some tangible solutions that can help us change our lives for the better. We will also review previous episodes of The Outpost and understand how they all come together!
When we are young, we answer to our parents. If we get out of hand or fall out of line, our parents are there to make sure we get back on track.

In this episode we will discuss what it means to be truly independent, how we can move beyond our limitations and empower ourselves to change the world.
New research published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology reveals that “Trusting Science” has made people more likely to disseminate false claims than those who use critical evaluation. The study revealed that when an article contains scientific references, people view the article as credible and boldly share it without considerations for reporting bias, prejudice or political motivations.
In this episode we will discuss how blind acceptance of information in the presence of simple scientific references sterilises critical analysis. We will also explore how this cultivates a damaging attitude of “blind faith” towards anything that seems remotely “scientific” when it is, in function, propaganda.
Caryn Leigh Oram is a phenomenal young woman with a passion for truth and progress. This passion lead her to pioneering a focus point in the world of academia; leading the charge for questions un-asked. After being at the mercy of a tremulous political journey, her world view changed drastically although her compassion kept her grounded.
In this episode, we discuss the fate of academia, the wrath of journalism and how cancel culture runs a muck. We also take a look at how our individual political revolutions have lead us to where we are now and what guides us moving forward.
