Diet Soap Podcast #41: On a Human Scale
Takis Fotopoulos is a libertarian socialist, an economist, and this week’s guest on the Diet Soap podcast. He is also the founder of the Inclusive Democracy movement, the author of many books, and the editor of the Inclusive Democracy journal. KMO of the C-Realm Podcast and Neil Kramer of the Cleaver join in this week as they are in Portland for their Transitional Alchemy Tour. KMO and I briefly discuss the term “libertarian socialist” which is a subject I discussed more fully with Frank Aragona last week on the Agroinnovations Podcast. The music this week includes Brian Eno’s “Ambient Music,” East Forest’s “York City” and Chris Isto White’s “The Sky is Not a Ceiling.” Listen carefully for a revelation in this week’s Titanic Factoid.

Thank you for setting up last night’s Transitional Alchemy Tour…..although, it didn’t feel like it. Still, interesting crowd….it would be nice to get together with these people once a month….reminded me of listening to a pre-grunge band in bar that usually plays the blues. Neil Kramer (a little uptight) promoting an psychic class system and KMO looks as if he it throwing caution to the wind. Still, both are far and above a lot of voices today. Both seemed weary. Enjoy your podcast…..keep on trucking!

Augie,
After spending two days with these two powerhouses of intellect and insight I have come to the following conclusion:
1. Neil and KMO can’t make a Alchemical Transition on their own. In fact, they can’t even pull together a tour on their own. Many people have worked to get each one of these events to come off.
2. Neil and KMO are truly likable fellows who I’ll actually miss (this means that they stayed exactly long enough but not too long).
