Episode What Is Pornography Doing To Us? ft. Baroness Bertin Cover

What Is Pornography Doing To Us? ft. Baroness Bertin

Pornography is a multi-billion pound industry. A quarter of the UK regularly accesses it. And until legislative changes last week, almost none of online pornography was regulated. In this episode of Found Out, Laura & Lewis sit down with Baroness Bertin, Lead Reviewer of the Independent Pornography Review and Life Peer in the House of Lords, to talk about the landmark legislative changes she is championing, what enforcement actually looks like, and why pornography is a violence against women and girls issue. Content warning: this episode references child sexual abuse, rape, and sexual violence.

Episode What's The Point Of Government? Cover

What's The Point Of Government?

What's the point of government? It's a question that sounds cynical, but it might be the most important question we can pose right now as the world we know changes in front of our eyes. When trust in institutions is at an all-time low, when policy feels disconnected from lived experience, and when the people most affected by decisions are the least likely to be in the room where they're made - we thought it was about time to ask who government is actually for, and what's the point in it at all. In Episode 3 of Found Out, we ask what government is supposed to do, where it's struggling, share juicy scoops from our time inside Westminster, and imagine what government could look like if we dared to think differently. Change starts here.

Episode Are We Addicted To Prisons? ft. Chris Atkins Cover

Are We Addicted To Prisons? ft. Chris Atkins

Welcome back! Or hello for the first time! This is Episode 2 of Found Out, your social justice podcast brought to you by The Merrittocracy. In this episode we will be talking all things prisons and why you should care about what goes on behind bars. We have our first very special guest on the pod - Chris Atkins. Chris is a best-selling author (A Bit of A Stretch & Time After Time), a world-renowned documentary-maker and good friend. Chris also spent two-and-a-half years in prison, so who better to give their insight on what prison is really like. We talk about the trial, day one entering HMP Wandsworth as well as the struggles and close connections Chris made. We answer the difficult question, are we addicted to prison?
