Join me on my constitutional. I discuss denialism as applied to global warming, science in general, and war and how the beneficiaries of these evils have spent fortunes to make sure it gains traction throughout the world. I situate these phenomena in the context of the decline of the hegemon and the changing ways our 'information' is circulated. I mention resistance to this using the example of the CJP (Cockroach Party) student protests in India. {Free. 27 minutes]

Join me on my constitutional. I discuss wild fires related to extreme heat in the UK and beyond, climate denial, the war over information conducted by the UK and other governments, and the ongoing hot war in the middle east. I suggest some preliminary answers to the question, "What is to be done?" [Free. 20 minutes]

In this podcast, I consider recent racist violence in the UK, rising authoritarianism, and widespread resentment, all in the context of global fragmentation. [Free. 33 minutes.]

In this podcast, I consider president Trump's blood-curdling threats to eliminate the entire civilisation of Iran and his sudden reversal into claiming that Iran's ten-point requirement to cease firing is a basis for future talks and an immediate cease fire. I consider this in the light of a number of actual events, certain expert commentary, and the notion that fascism is the weaponisation of the death instinct. [Free. 34 minutes.]

Join me on my constitutional. This episode is a few days out of date but, I believe, still of use. I consider the ongoing global conflict in the context of the economic, cultural, natural and informational systems which sustain human existence. [Free. 52 minutes.]

In this podcast, I attempt to paint a picture of where we are now by drawing on Starmer's two-faced approach to war in West Asia, the on-going genocide in Gaza and the firing of missiles towards Diego Garcia by Iran. I take all of these as signalling the beginning of the end for the hegemon. [Free. 23 minutes.]

Join me as I take my constitutional. Again, I consider subtle and not so subtle aspects of propaganda, mostly in the context of the state of the world, and particularly with respect to war in West Asia. I also briefly consider the state's resort to coercion to supress dissent from its viscous psychopathy. [Free. 19 minutes.]

Join me as take my constitutional. In this episode I examine information flow and energy flow as primary levers of control for the hegemon. I do this in the context of unrelenting war propaganda by western MSM. [Free. 20 minutes.]

In this podcast, I examine some small details of propaganda reactions to the recent assassination of Ayatollah Khamenei by USA-Israel in two interventions in the discourse surrounding this event. These are a BBC report of the event and a tweet by Paul Mason. I attempt to expose how repeated tiny innuendos of language are meant to nudge the collective common sense to produce attitudes and world pictures conducive to the interests of the oligarchic class. I situate this in the situation in which communications infrastructure and actual content are owned and determined by that class. I try to indicate how this unfreedom can be seen through. [Free. 35 minutes.]
