Tolerance vs Apathy | Perilous World Radio 10/01/25

In a recent episode of Perilous World Radio, host Alan Masters examined the challenging economic conditions in Oregon. He noted that the state is currently one of the most expensive places to live globally, with average home prices approaching $480,000. This increase in housing costs has significantly outpaced inflation over the past 20 years. Masters highlighted the concerning rise in homelessness in Eugene, where rates have skyrocketed tenfold since the year 2000, affecting approximately 1.8% to 2.8% of the local population. As the discussion progressed, the topic shifted to the theme of apathy. Masters reflected on his own experiences traveling the world, which included memorable visits to events like the running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain, and driving on glaciers in Iceland. He shared his own past indifference towards local and political issues while living in Grants Pass, Oregon, believing that community members would eventually move on and dismissing the importance of local happenings. This apathy, he argued, allowed political dynamics to evolve unchecked, leading to serious consequences in the present day. Alan urged listeners to consider their own responsibility to engage with and address the pressing issues that affect society today.
