About This Podcast

Hosted by Kurt Parks, irRational is a podcast designed to bring people of opposing viewpoints together — not to argue, but to understand. Each episode explores complex topics that divide opinion, from politics and culture to religion, science, and identity.

Our goal is simple: to create space for honest, intelligent, and respectful dialogue in a world that often rewards outrage over understanding. We ask the tough questions — Is faith irrational? Should Canada become a republic? Is AI a public right or private power? — and invite guests from different backgrounds to challenge ideas, not people.

If you believe curiosity, civility, and critical thinking still matter, join the conversation.
