Throughout life, you are bound to hear some of the same cliche pieces of advice over and over. But are cliches so common for a good reason, or are they mostly just outdated advice? This episode, we are analyzing some of the most popular cliches and giving you our hot takes on which ones hold up, which ones need to be taken only in a specific context, and which ones are reductive, unhelpful, or just need to be retired.

Episode 112: Moral Alignments
The Sapio Files
04/26/22 • 92 min
Those who know us know that we love analyzing personality types and literature. So when we found the chart for the 9 moral alignments, we thought that would be another fun framework to explore. This week, we are talking about the moral alignments and what they mean to us and to our favorite characters. Confession time: When we decided we wanted to record this episode, we soon discovered that we knew very little about the origin of this alignment system, or even the fact that it originated in Dungeons and Dragons. So naturally, we reached out to a friend with more experience in the system's origins to fill in the gaps! This week, join us and our fantastic guest host, Caleb, as we explore the 9 moral alignments!

The Sapio Files

It's a privilege to be back this week, talking about... privilege! In what ways have we been given privilege? Why is privilege often invisible to those who have it? We are breaking down the privilege conversation this week as we discuss why privilege is a tough topic for many people, ways we can change the narrative to make the discussion more inclusive, types of privilege in today's society, what many people do not notice about privilege, the many privileges that we've been given, and our thoughts on how we (and you!) can own and use our privileges to make the world a little better every day!
