Laughing At Joe Blystone

Some Batman movies have been called fascist, but THE BATMAN (2022) breaks new ground for the franchise by being lib. We wouldn't be a left-wing culture podcast if we didn't occasionally pick a new Batman movie from the lowest branch on the tree, so come join us as we chart the latest developments in the Caped Crusader's political evolution.

#312 - Sympathy for the Riddler

We discuss three versions of Macbeth on-screen: MACBETH(1971), MACBETH(2015) and THE TRAGEDY OF MACBETH (2021). What makes them different? What makes a good adaptation? What do we like? Listen to find out!

Dimitri and Khalid explore various aspects of the 2003 German documentary “The Net: LSD, The Unabomber, and the Internet”, including: the Digerati’s seething contempt for Kaczynski’s anti-tech ideology, John Brockman’s Edge Foundation & close friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, Kaczynski’s hatred of serrrious scientists, Harvard’s postwar “culture of despair”, Dr. Henry A. Murray’s obsessions with Moby Dick/sado-masochism/unethical polyamory, Kaczynski’s 3-year participation in Murray’s abusive psychological “study”, Murray’s satan obsession, writing “The Personality and Career of Satan”, the Harvard MK-Ultra LSD experiments, Murray and Tim Leary, the “trickle-down” distribution of LSD from elites to the masses, Steward Brand and Ken Kesey doing [MK?] “Search” with the Merry Pranksters, the CIA-funded Macy Conferences, the mysterious death of Christiana Morgan, and the ongoing consequences of living in a spiderworld built by Epstein’s techno-optimist friends.

[PREVIEW] #109 - THE SPIDERWORLDWIDEWEB & ITS CONSEQUENCES: LSD, Unabomber, Epstein, & The Internet

We return to the Enemy Camp with Tyler from New Zealand to discuss "The Shadow" by Lionel Terry.

#147 - The Shadow

The documentary WHITE NOISE (2020) follows three very prominent members of the alt-right (you'll be familiar with all of them, folks) as their fortunes rise and fall during the Trump era. We discuss the ethics of interviewing/"platforming" ideological enemies, the differing aesthetic styles of various alt-right personalities, and what happens to political "scenes" during periods of eclipse. PLUS: Luke takes stock of the Canadian Conservative leadership race, and Liam Neeson makes a movie about the U.S./Mexico border.

#332 - The Futility Consensus

Sell-Out Month Continues!

We discuss the 'Bad' movies by the master of suspense: Alfred Hitchcock.

#295 - The Bad Hitchcock

Dinesh D'Souza believes he has uncovered shocking proof that the Democratic Party stole the 2020 election in 2000 MULES (2022), a documentary so shoddy that even right-wing media is hesitant to publicize it. We follow the trail of Dinesh's conspiracy theory to its inevitable endpoint: a contempt for democracy itself. PLUS: we discuss the billionaire whose name is on everyone's lips, Elon Musk.

#334 - Just Asking Questions

Inflaatio tuntuu bensapumpulla ja lähikaupassa. Mikä hintoja nostaa? Onko kyse väliaikaisesta, muun muassa Venäjä-pakotteiden aikaansaamasta ilmiöstä, vai onko syytä varautua siihen, että inflaatio piinaa taloutta vielä aimo tovin? Ajetaanko maailmantalous taantumaan inflaation kaitsemisen nimissä? Miksi talouspolitiikan työkaluvajassa on hintojen nousun hillintää varten vain rahapolitiikan moukareja ja dynamiittia, vaikka käyttöä olisi hienovaraisemmille instrumenteille?

Podcastin suuressa inflaatiojaksossa poliittisen talouden tutkijat Lauri Holappa ja Jussi Ahokas keskustelevat inflaation syistä, keskuspankkien liikkumavarasta sekä globaalitalouden laajemmista institutionaalisista ongelmista, jotka vaikeuttavat inflaation suitsimista.

Jakso 48: Inflaatio! (feat. Lauri Holappa & Jussi Ahokas)

A podcast about culture, politics, and our crumbling world. Hosted by Luke Savage and Will Sloan.
