DTTW- Memory Pt1
We begin to discuss a few of our frustrations dealt with during our adventures with illness primarily focusing on memory. The lack there of being the focus of said frustration. With either a physical or mental issues, dealing with any form of memory loss is painful. It can take simple problems and amplify them creating a feeling of being overwhelmed. This is the first half of our discussion with the second half coming soon.

DTTW- Adventures
 In this video Bobby and I open up about our struggles with mental and physical illness. We are starting an adventure together to not only hope to help ourselves but anyone watching to know it is not only okay to have struggles but to know that you can survive them and come out of them even stronger. I am rambling because I am still nervous about them. Fully opening up about my situation is still raw to me. I am also still very new to this content creation life. We are working on better ways for video and audio since we live half the nation away from one another. As we continue we will surely get better with the conversations and the quality of video and audio. Thank you everyone for their patience and support.

Trauma Positives
 A sleepy conversation with myself about what I consider to be my trauma positives used as reminders of why reality doesn't suck as much as I might think it does when I am in pain. Reach out to us at- Mattchat@downrightdialectical.com https://www.downrightdialectical.com/ https://www.facebook.com/downright.dialectical.7/https://twitter.com/DDialectical https://www.instagram.com/downrightdialectical/

S2 EP17- Politcal OnlyFans
The last conversation recorded before the hiatus and we are discussing the brilliant move of the Libertarian Party to fund raise via an OnlyFans page. Not only does it make a beautiful statement about how politicians raise money but it seeks to legitimize sex work which I personally think is an important goal in the nation. We need to stop moral assassinations of industries that do not deserve the harsh judgement they receive. All of our conversations are recorded on video now so please check out the YouTube channel under the same name as the podcast.

S2 EP16- Coming Back Soon
This is a conversation recorded some time ago with John. We discuss revamping the show with new ideas and changes just before my life spiraled down and I needed to take some time away to pick up the pieces. It was a good starting point for our conversations now being on YouTube as well so please check them out if you've been curious about our unremarkable faces.

S2 EP14 - Under The Rug
In this episode we begin our discussion on whether or not Churches should be taxed and find ourselves in a disagreement on livable wages, societal empathy and the morality of business. Eventually we will have a more in depth on church and state but I think this episode provides a good example of civil disagreement and navigating a conversation where the participants are quite divided. One thing I would like to promote is just because historically things have operated one way does not mean it is correct nor subject to change. We as a society can pinpoint issues and work together to find a better way forward.

S2 EP13- More Bad Maybe Good
In this episode we discuss the issues surrounding celebrity cancel culture and the possible revolt of the conservative platforms to curb the overall effect the mob mentality can have on any one individual. We discuss the implications of a stand off between liberal and conservative platforms and whether or not it could lead to potential common ground to build off of. As an optimist for humanity I would like to think so but I am aware of the troubles we will have to face along the way.

S2 Ep11- Childhood Traumas
I was asked by one of our guests if we could take some time to discuss personal childhood traumas and the effects they have had on our adult lives. Though I am not keen to openly discuss many of the details surrounding my early years this was a great opportunity to learn more about a friend and offer up more of myself in return to both them and the listeners. I am very aware of the upsetting nature some of the stories told may have but I hope this episode serves as a bright spot in the darkness. Trauma does not have to define you, control you or prevent you from any aspect in life. The journeys involved are incredibly difficult but it is not impossible to overcome your traumas and find some level of new happiness.

S2 Ep10- Gays, In Space!
This episode has a title targeted towards humor for a reason. I do not condone the discrimination against the LGTBQ+ community and the title is not meant to be hateful in any way. It is meant to grab attention towards an episode where we discuss the absurdity I came across in a conversation where homosexuals were said to be incapable of space colonization due to an alleged lack of being able to procreate. We not only discuss this topic but of space colonization in general and what outcomes we think may come about specifically colonizing Mars.

S2 Ep9- The Bunny Effect
In this episode we discuss HR 127 with John. Justin and BUNNY. HR 127 is some gun legislation put forward in order to add on to gun reform. The problem is it is a divisive load of governmental over reach that we were not able to be very dialectical with. Every person involved with this podcast would absolutely love to see better education and training when it comes to owning a firearm. We even agree with most of the laws in place now with the ownership of guns. However, we find it irresponsible of ourselves to not speak out on HR 127.

S2 Ep8- 3 Straights and a Mostly
In this episodes we discuss the lengths of our sexual comforts, bias and hatred and the potential for growth. We really wanted to point out that many people born into families or communities that propagate hatred have found their way out of that lifestyle and into a more understanding and caring mindset. It is possible for awareness and education to positively change the views of others. What seems like an impossible task to many is still a worthy venture and we shouldn't stop the efforts put forth to make our world a better place. If you're lifestyle is not a real threat to those around you, you should be able to live a life free of discrimination.

S2 Ep7- The Coup of Charles
Charles not only returns to the podcast but casts out the usual host and runs his first episode. Typically there would be issues with a takeover but it was fun when Troy did it and to be honest I'm just flat proud of the guy. He steps out of his comfort zone and with the help of John, Troy and Bobby tackles the conversation around guns in America. They dig deep on where we are, where we could be and what they believe the routes to get us there should be. Along the way they hit on overall education in our country and the importance of continued training in any field of study you might be in. 
58 minutes | Feb 8, 2021
S2 Ep6- Dem In Power, US Still Out
In this episode I was pleasantly surprised to hear some guests from the left not be excited the Democrats have taken control of the government. Understandably excited to see Trump leave office we discuss the issues of our leadership now that we seem to have established a pattern of back and forth childish behavior. There are still small shards of light within each political party but overall there is a significant vacancy of cooperation.

S2 E5- More Bobby More Fun
The fun with Bobby continues as we primarily discuss morality and the spectrum it lives on. What constitutes as acceptable and how far you have to change a scenario until you find the line you would not cross. We loved having Bobby so much we can almost guarantee you will hear him here again. Which is kind of cheating since I know at the time of posting this I have a new episode with him on to edit later. If you are interested in reaching out to us you can find on us twitter, instagram and facebook. If you don't use social media you can e-mail us at mattchat@downrightdialectical.com.

S2 E4- Fun Things with Bobby
A friend of our beloved Troy listened to the podcast and decided he wanted to call in with his own thoughts. What ensues is chaotic madness wrapped in delightful discussions on topics such as free will, logic, education, UBI, automation and more. It was a real delight having a fan of the show call in and getting a new person we can have our weird conversations with. Bobby  will no doubt appear in more episodes in the future and we are excited to see what else he brings to our table for discussions. If you ever feel like reaching out to us with comments or ideas, or better yet to be on the show, do not hesitate. Hit us up one any of our socials or by email and lets get to talking.

S2 E3- Our Guest Peter Pt 2
In this discussion we get focused on corporal punishment for children and the morality around physically punishing them. The nuances between levels of physical punishment and whether or not any level is acceptable drives the conversation to some agreement in the end. 
69 minutes | Jan 13, 2021
S2 E2- Our Guest Peter
On this episode we have a guest call in to discuss mental health in the technological age. Peter gives a terrifyingly accurate portrayal of the new issues we face as a society with the current methods used with technology. He focuses us in on the impact social media has on us especially younger people and how it directly impacts our ability to create and maintain interpersonal relationships. The conversation progresses into possible solutions and though it becomes slightly charged at time no guests or hosts were physically or emotionally harmed in the making of this podcast. We'd like to thank Peter for calling in to have the conversation and for everyone to tune back in on Friday when the second half his visit airs. As always we love and appreciate our listeners, if anyone wants to reach out we are available at all of our socials or email us at mattchat@downrightdialectical.com.

S2 E1- DC Events
In the first episode of our new season we bring in 2021 discussing the events in DC, specifically Trump's level of blame, the violence occurred and what it all means moving forward as a nation. We highlight the turmoil between American citizens and the paths we could utilize in brining us back together. We greatly appreciate John, Brennan and Troy for coming out and helping us kick off a new season brining conversations to our listeners. Our numbers are growing and the distance spread has amazed us. We will continue to do our best in bringing insightful and entertaining conversations to you all.
