Society & Culture


This week, Sam and a very congested Connor talk about Judo. While we do chat about the history and contextual origins of the practice, we also talk about Judo as a martial art and, as you might expect, its ethical and intellectual dimensions. Since Sam does Ju-Jitsu, we try and enquire as to how physical craft can cultivate moral virtues and help shape character; tackling both logistical problems and big blokes in dressing gowns within the same art. The Hardcore History podcast that Sam mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oErYYBNCHh4 Harry & Paul sketch that Sam mentioned (there's a few): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKL7Qem0k8U _ Edited by Connor.   Audio & music mastering / production by Nye James.   Jingles recorded by Nye (guitars) & Connor (harmonica, mandolin)
