About this listen

A Jeremiad is a long literary work bitterly lamenting the state of society and its morals, containing a prophecy of society's impending downfall. The Jeremiad podcast situates itself as the modern day iteration of the prophet Jeremiah's God-given mission; considering philosophy and sociology through a lens of misanthropy. Join hosts Andy Smith and Tom Burton as we get Biblical and call out the woes of today's society at large.The Jeremiad podcast by Andy Smith and Tom Burton Philosophy Social Sciences

  • Why Broligarchs Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos Are the Unholy Trinity
    Mar 28 2025

    Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture - Jeremiah 23:1.

    What happens when the world becomes little more than a plaything for three individuals stocked with ungodly amounts of wealth?

    The Jeremiad Podcast explores the dangers and ramifications of profit-driven false-prophets gaining increasing influence and power in shaping the world around them, focusing on what we dub the Unholy Trinity of modern Broligarchs: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos.
