About Unionist Central

Welcome to Unionist Central. This channel is dedicated to exploring the Political, Philosophical, and Economical Sphere by debating and conversing about key concepts that relate to these sectors. The name is an attempt at formatting our own ideology entitled Unionism. The channel is at its core a Left Wing one, but we intend to take an in depth and fair look at each of the topics brought up on the channel. We hope you will join us as we embark upon our adventure into the complex and exiting realm of the modern world. Episodes will be hosted by Andrew Gould and are currently released on an inconsistent schedule. Cheers- The Unionist Team

[Episode Three:] Taking The 8Values Test Part One

Episode Three of the Unionist Central Podcast. This three part episode is similar in nature to the trilogy of episodes that were taking the political compass test. However, these episodes are on par in audio quality with the expected content of the channel. In the video, I fill out the 8values Test which is supposed to determine one's political standings on four axes that are comprised of 8 total values. This three part episode will follow my responses to the first 35 questions of 70 total, a further episode will cover the remaining 36 questions (question 35 was reached but not answered). Below are links to the 8Values Test itself, other potential tests, and a video by YouTube Adam Something I mentioned within the episode.

[Special Episode Six:] A Unionists Guide to Cognitive Dissonance and The Trolley Problem

Special Podcast Episode Six of the Unionist Central Podcast. This episode takes a look at the notion of cognitive dissonance, and how it relates to morality. This is done by examining two propositions of the trolley problem, and seeing how people's reactions may differ, despite similarities between the two propositions. The video additionally takes a brief look at the history of the problem, and applies the ideas of cognitive dissonance to certain real world situations we may face every day. This video, although giving a good run down of the concept, does not act as a complete or in-depth analysis of the trolley problem. Its focus is on teeing up the first chapter of Society of Reason, which will focus on the source of morality.

[Special Episode Five:] Taking the Political Compass Test Part Three

Special Podcast Episode Five of the Unionist Central Podcast. This is Part Three of Three videos in which I take a look at the Political Compass. I took the test and responded to each of the questions. Although the test itself is not the best metric for political standing it is a fun activity and the questions can be thought provoking. Apologies for the poor editing apparent in this video, it was hard to cover all of the bases with a longer piece that wasn't scripted. Below are links to the Political Compass, as well as other tests I would recommend.

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.
