Concrete, Compliance and the Constitution
Manage episode 446396726 series 2398529
In this episode, Andrew starts by talking about something a little more concrete than normal: concrete
We delve into the science (lower case T & S) of pouring magical liquid stone and ponder about how (and why) concrete poured thousands of years ago by the Romans is in better condition than stuff poured in the 60s.
We then talk about other ancient structures, how they could have possibly been built and how the default normie answer of ‘slaves’ just doesn’t cut it when it comes to magnificent structures such as the ancient pyramids of Giza (that we would not be able to build today).
After that, we talk a bit about bureaucracy, about compliance and how experts in these fields are often some of the worst human beings you can ever come across.
Finally, after some incessant bickering about the difference between a recurring payment model and a subscription, Nic reads through his personal declaration of independence (as well as a few agendas he has on the go for the next few years).
