This podcast hosts discussions that delve into a diverse array of philosophical topics interwoven with contemporary social and cultural themes. Recurring subjects include feminist care ethics, social reproduction theory, media studies, and global history, along with more nuanced discussions around gender identity, queerness, and transformative justice. The show often examines intersections between philosophy and other disciplines, highlighting areas such as epistemological authority, identity politics, and the role of philosophy in social justice movements like Black Lives Matter.

The podcast also sheds light on less conventional topics such as the philosophy of work, control F as a research method, and the philosophical implications of activities like chess and flamenco. Through its episodes, UNBOUND aims to foster a space for critical thought and discussion around both historical and contemporary philosophical inquiries, encouraging listeners to engage with complex ideas and reflect upon their practical implications in everyday life and broader political struggles.
