Podcast appearances and mentions of Adam H Johnson

There's no mincing words—the first presidential debate was a travesty of the highest order. The leading story is President Biden's horrendous performance and the political crisis it's sparked among the Democrats. But the failure of the media, not to mention former President Trump's antics, should also be called out. TRNN contributor Adam H. Johnson joins Mel Buer and Marc Steiner for a post-mortem on the debate, and, from the way it's looking, American democracy itself.Studio Production: David HebdenPost-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Sign up for our newsletterLike us on FacebookFollow us on TwitterDonate to support this podcast

On this week's episode of Lever Time, David Sirota is joined by journalist and Citations Needed podcast co-host Adam H. Johnson to discuss the contradictions and hypocrisies of the multibillion-dollar self-help industry — an industry that has long convinced people that unhappiness is an attitude problem, and not a societal issue that needs to be addressed at a systemic level.Adam's recent story for The Lever exposed how one of the industry's leading authors, Arthur Brooks, spent decades advocating for economic policies that have immiserated working Americans. As the former head of the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), one of the country's most prominent conservative think tanks, Brooks was paid nearly $3 million a year to help lead campaigns against Medicaid expansion, free college, rent control, and universal health care.In today's interview, David and Adam unpack how large parts of the self-help industry grifts its customers, the history of AEI and its toxic influence on American politics, and Brooks' career transition from sower of despair to peddler of happiness.A transcript of this episode is available here.Links: The Happiness Guru Who Immiserated America (The Lever, 2023)BONUS: This past Monday's bonus episode of Lever Time Premium, exclusively for The Lever's supporting subscribers, featured David's interview with Media Matters' Allison Fisher about Rupert Murdoch's lasting impact on climate change, since the recently retired media mogul used his control of Fox News and hundreds of other media outlets to spread misinformation and climate denialism.If you'd like access to Lever Time Premium, which includes extended interviews and bonus content, head over to LeverNews.com to become a supporting subscriber.If you'd like to leave a tip for The Lever, click the following link.
