The 'globalization' myth, US hegemony, and crisis of capitalism, with Radhika Desai

Security Expert Lee Slusher discusses the state of Pax Americana and how the post-WWII status quo is failing. The West's foray into Ukraine is a fool's errand and it's likely we've reached peak NATO and EU. He analyzes the recent Prigozhin incident and evaluates Russian power. Lee lived and worked in Taiwan and believes the U.S. no longer has the capability to defend Taiwan. He feels countries are making concrete steps toward multipolarity. We also discuss the destabilization of Hungary, the U.S.-Mexico border crisis, the global elite, and how the goal on all fronts is control.

This original version of "49 Nudes & 6 Dogs In Church Arouse Cops" was submitted as part of Disquiet Junto Project 0601: Hard Six The Assignment: Let a roll of the dice determine the relative prominence of various parts of a track.

Process notes - 

6-sided die rolls were 5, 2, 5, 2, 5, 1. These numbers helped determine the amounts of echo, warp flux, delay, echo offset, EQ freq, limiter ceiling & reverb for each track with 5/6 being highest and 1/6 being lowest. These numbers also determined frequency of occurrence in the track as a whole. These actions were all performed after the audio had been edited and brought into Ableton Live.

I used the following for the original recordings - three takes, one of backyard ambience, one adding xylophone and one primarily using my voice.
