Podcasts can be meticulously crafted or serendipitously spontaneous, and this episode emerged from the latter—a conversation that evolved naturally from a stinger into a full-blown discussion. We found ourselves deep in dialogue about navigating discussions around contentious issues that often attract negativity and vitriol.

Though we might get a bit punchy, we hope it lends charm and levity to an otherwise solemn topic. Feedback is always welcome; visit TheEthicalPanda.com for all the ways you can reach out and become part of the conversation.

Also, we're excited to announce our week-by-week coverage of Star Wars: Andor. Kickstarting with a spoiler-free primer episode this Wednesday at 8:30 pm, we'll carry on through the series finale. Join the live stream on twitch.tv/zenmadman, and listen to the episodes the following Thursday morning on the Star Wars Universe Podcast.

The book Paul referenced, Shijak: To Begin: A Modern Martial Arts Story by Kathryn Yang, can be found here.
