<![CDATA[What Lies Behind]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/whatliesbehind What Lies Behind is a series of Podcasts that asks what lies behind what we say and do, how we think and behave whether it’s obvious, falsely obvious, commonsense notions or inherited echoes we may not be aware of. Hosted by Donal Carroll, Critical Difference, and fellow observational creative Wolfgang, each podcast focusses on a topical issue and aims to surprise, risk, challenge and make critical sense of it to start conversations that matter. And What Lies Behind will find ones that matter to you.

We will also draw attention to that unruly fuel , the trampoline of language - what goes up might not be what comes down! If you’re interested in dancing with questions and how they can be tin-openers to sculpt new meaning from what’s taken for granted, or if you want to see how much of your thinking is actually your own, come along. Be surprised! If you want something that’s provocative and arresting, this is the perfect podcast for you.

Do we notice? We say that the key appeal of modern 'influencers' is -unmysteriously- explicit influencing, by creating a 'marriage of connivance' between influencer and influenced. But does that create dependence or independence? And, as this relationship occurs in social media, what are the implications? As ever, the last word is 'From the poets': 'And to have more intellect than personality is nothing but the original sin against glamour'. What do you think?

Using a framework of Ibrim Kendi ideas, he attempts to make more critical sense of what 'race' is, its purpose, and what it means to be an antiracist now. And how using actual science can defeat what's falsely constructed to sound like it. Over to you: are we making better sense?
