This was great fun and touched on several preoccupations bubbling under in my own consciousness at the moment. Good stuff as ever.

This first episode of the American Exception podcast is also the first of our Destiny Betrayed series on the JFK assassination. It features a discussion with Zachary Sklar, co-screenwriter of Oliver Stone's 1991 masterpiece, JFK. The writer and co-creator of JFK Revisited, James DiEugenio, also joins the discussion. The episode also includes contributions from Abby Martin of Empire Files and Media Roots Radio.

#150 - "Error" and "Feeding the Infant" w/ Rob Lucas

We are joined by Justin Roczniak—of the excellent engineering disasters podcast, Well There’s Your Problem—to talk about the potential freight rail strike that has been brewing for a long time and near-future scenarios for the supply chain. We discuss the horrid labor conditions in the industry and the scourge of Precision Scheduled Railroading, a system of management that has transformed the entire railroad sector so it serves one god: The Operating Ratio.

227 - Warship Down 09.26.22

The new documentary series UNPRECEDENTED (2022) seeks to offer an unfiltered look at the Trump family in the weeks before the 2020 election and the January 6 riot. We discuss how its thickets of editorial commentary obscure a potentially compelling look into America's former first family, and then have a laugh reading from Trump Jr's debut book "Triggered."

"The best goddamn communist podcast, period."
—Tom O'Brien, From Alpha to Omega

This is Swampside Chats. The podcast where communists shoot the shit about current events, history, political economy, and theory.

"You are free not only to invite us, but to go yourselves wherever you will, even into the Swamp. In fact, we think that the Swamp is your proper place, and we are prepared to render you every assistance to get there. Only let go of our hands, don’t clutch at us and don’t besmirch the grand word freedom, for we too are 'free' to go where we please, free to fight not only against the Swamp, but also against those who are turning towards the Swamp!"
