"Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows. ... In the end the Party would announce that two and two made five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it.” (1984, Orwell) Lighthearted dystopian-themed podcast Three Equals Five discuses fact vs feeling vs fiction vs politics vs history and how they relate to each other. Thank you! to all our supporters and listeners out their!

- SB-20 (North Carolina's new Abortion law)This topic has been something mike wanted to talk about for quite some time and its finally here. Since a new law hit NC after a few senators flipped to veto-proof the passing of this legislation we though now would be a good time to discuss abortion and where it stands in the great state of North Carolina.

- You and Ebenezer Scrooge (Wealth and Retirement)Jon, Mike, and Tom discuss whether retirement is a viable option. Is it reasonable for the average citizen to expect they will be able to retire, and if not, why? Jon’s been there for some years, Mike is shooting for it, and apparently Tom never will. Death is a certainty, but retirement isn’t. https://realdealretirement.com/what-scrooge-can-teach-you-about-retirement-planning/ https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/10/11/how-income-varies-among-u-s-religious-groups/ https://www.patreon.com/ThreeEqualsFive https://threeequalsfive.buzzsprout.com https://open.spotify.com/show/7yxcbdSbd1e8w20ooLLmuj https://podcasts.apple.com/lk/podcast/three-equals-five/id1590436951 https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-three-equals-five-89552834 #Wealth #Retirement #Money #Death Support the show0 comments0

- FINbedibedipdebip That's all folks! and my last attempt at typing out Porky the Pigs classic line.

This episode is a brief recap of season 2 followed by some meandering thoughts on the state of the world. Its so riveting you'd think your an I-beam. See you soon! Support the show0 comments0
- Three Equals Five Sep 11 · 1h 3m Monarchy! What is it good for?Mike is lost in the wilderness and having a hard time finding his way back home, so like good co-hosts we decide to do an episode without him. Tom and Jon explore what monarchy would look like in the United States and weigh pros and cons of the institution. We also endeavored to do basic arithmetic and it goes terribly wrong.

- Please Sir Can I Have Some More (Student Debt Bailout)Oh yea money for nothing baby! but wait its not enough! Its a bail out for the rich and an increase on taxes for the working class. Its doesn't go far enough...my loans are more then 20k. When forty percent of people who go to college and take out loans drop out, it really doesn't answer the underlying problems. Well luckily Tom, Jon, and Mike discuss the solutions to these problems and much more as the arm chair heroes we are. Just kidding folks, but this could open up an opportunity for people to realize alternative modes to climb the social hierarchy other than college. Support the show0 comments0

- Three Equals Five Jun 9 · 47m Blinking Sideways (UAP Federal Government Program Initiation)Some people would be shocked to learn that aliens have been living among us and the federal government is surveilling us.

- Crime School (Prison Reform, Sentencing Requirements, Repeat Offenders)Prisons are a lot like high school. You’ve got lots of people from different backgrounds going through some crazy mental and emotional stuff, behaving badly, and being forced to be with each other day in and day out. And, like high schools, many prisons don’t seem to do a very good job serving the education, training, and life skill needs of prisoners to benefit society. So, is there a better way? https://www.patreon.com/ThreeEqualsFive https://threeequalsfive.buzzsprout.com https://open.spotify.com/show/7yxcbdSbd1e8w20ooLLmuj https://podcasts.apple.com/lk/podcast/three-equals-five/id1590436951 https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-three-equals-five-89552834 #Prisons #PrisonReform #Jail #Crime #Criminals #Punishment #Rehabilitation Support the show0 comments0
- The 25th Option (Presidential Disability and Succession)So what happens when the President of the United States cannot perform the duties required of that role?

- One Two Three (Census Data, Government Policy, and Basic Mathematics)Different people have different inherent biological limitations: color recognition, spatial awareness, physical strength, processing emotions, and other. But do the masses of people have a significant limitation in their ability to visualize or understand basic mathematics - counting and percentages? What does that mean for society, democracy, and a representative form of government in the current technological age? How could they hope to understand basic concepts of data, statistics, science, and engineering that is widely presented as crucial to sustain and advance in a highly technologically dependent world? Will they then be manipulated even moreso by that lack of understanding combined with pervasive and effective propaganda? https://www.patreon.com/ThreeEqualsFive https://threeequalsfive.buzzsprout.com https://open.spotify.com/show/7yxcbdSbd1e8w20ooLLmuj https://podcasts.apple.com/lk/podcast/three-equals-five/id1590436951 https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-three-equals-five-89552834 https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/articles-reports/2022/03/15/americans-misestimate-small-subgroups-population https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2021/08/improved-race-ethnicity-measures-reveal-united-states-population-much-more-multiracial.html Support the show0 comments0
