Evictions, rising rents and unaffordable homes: Capitalist housing market a total failure

It’s one of the few things that the late anarchist anthropologist David Graeber and tech billionaire Peter Thiel agreed on: the sci-fi future we were promised has not materialised. Where are the flying cars? Where are the teleportation machines? And why, instead, do we just have 15 different ride-hailing apps to choose from?

In this episode of Downstream, Ash Sarkar sits down with technology writer Paris Marx, author of The Road to Nowhere, to talk about the future we were promised and the Silicon Valley fraudsters who stole it from us.

Ukraine War Gets Bigger: Russian Missile Strikes in Retaliation for Terrorist Attacks

Cutting-edge research has recently revealed that festive movie The Muppet Christmas Carol is actually based on a book. Many are now speculating that there may even be historical context at play. But what could it be? To unwrap the politics of A Christmas Carol, Eleanor Penny is joined by James Butler, co-founder of Novara Media and a contributing editor at the London Review of Books. 

Together they discuss the hungry 1840s, deflationary economics, Scrooge's miserly capitalism and why Charles Dickens' conversion story is our most enduring ghost of Christmas past.

Happy Christmas from everyone at Novara Media!

Here's my entry for the Producers Corner Sample Challenge #288.  This one's a collabo beat with my man X.   First chops done on the MPC, added some extra's in Ableton and then X chopped it up, fried up and fine tuned it in Cubase.  One hell of a ride.  Let us know what you think of this!
