Ep. 14 Pompeii's eruption and Vesusvius's explosion

In this episode of This Podcast Counts as Socializing, we take a deep dive into Pompeii, exploring its archaeological wonders, geological history, and the eruption of Vesuvius that buried the city in 79 CE. We break down the different types of volcanoes, from shield volcanoes to stratovolcanoes, and discuss why Mars' Olympus Mons is the biggest volcano in the solar system. Reading from Pliny the Younger's firsthand account, we relive the disaster as it unfolded, from the warning tremors to the ash-filled skies. Beyond the destruction, we explore how modern archaeology at Pompeii and Herculaneum has uncovered frescoes, graffiti, statues, and even preserved loaves of bread, giving us an intimate glimpse into daily life in ancient Rome. Whether you're fascinated by history, geology, or just want to hear about some truly wild ancient graffiti, this episode has something for you!

Ep. 13 We Live in a Society

In this episode of This Podcast Counts as Socializing, we dive into Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann’s The Social Construction of Reality—a sociological classic that explores how humans create and maintain the world around them. We break down the difference between objective physical reality and subjective social reality, unpacking how society is built on collective agreements that feel real because we act as if they are. From money to marriage, political parties to property, we explore how social norms are not fixed truths but human inventions that can change over time. We also critique Berger’s work, highlighting his lack of focus on power structures and bringing in Karl Marx’s take on who really shapes society. Finally, we discuss how identity itself is socially constructed, leaving you with the question: if no one else recognizes who you are, do you still exist as that person?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
