Diet Soap Podcast #58: Afraid to Fight the Powers That Be?
Journalist Margaret Kimberly from blackagendareport.com is the guest this week and we discuss her essay “Americans afraid to fight the powers that be“. Also this week you’ll hear the voice of Slavoj Zizek, the music of Hussalonia, and the pop hit “Simon Says” from the 1910 Fruitgum Company.
Can we escape from the ideology of capitalism? Simon Says put your hands on your head. Put your hands on your hips.
The Kickstarter campaign for my radical self-help book “Pick Your Battle” is coming right along, and if you’re interested in getting out from under the taker/extractive/capitalist economy that dominates you then pitch in. Perhaps I’ll come up with something at the last minute. Donating a buck will still get you a copy of my short story Noam Chomsky and the Timebox.
Also this week Miriam discovers that the managers of the Titanic disaster were money grubbing pigs. You can download or subscribe to this podcast at dietsoap.podomatic.com.
