Podcast appearances and mentions of alex jung

We're kicking off Season 4 with some mini-episodes. We'll keep things casual and spend 3-5 minutes chatting about a writing topic that's been on my mind lately and hopefully I'll leave you with some helpful takeaways for your own writing journey. On this episode, we'll tackle two questions: Why rewrite? And how much rewriting is too much? Mentioned in the episode: Michaela Coel's profile by E. Alex Jung in Vulture

Happy Thursday, loyal readers. This month at Article Club, we've been focusing on “The Spectacular Life of Octavia Butler,” by the talented writer E. Alex Jung.If you haven't read the article yet, I urge you to do so. It's excellent. Even if you are a newbie to Ms. Butler's work, you'll appreciate how Mr. Jung honors her and her impact. There aren't many great profiles out there about Ms. Butler. Now, thanks to Mr. Jung, we have one.Also: I hope you'll join us to discuss the article on January 29, 2:00 - 3:30 pm PT on Zoom. There's still time to sign up! Article Clubbers are kind and thoughtful and welcoming. Our conversations are always in small, intimate, facilitated groups. I'm excited to share that Sarai and I had the opportunity to interview Mr. Jung a couple weeks ago about his brilliant article. Sarai took the lead this time – which I was very happy about, given that she's an expert of Ms. Butler's work. We talked about a number of topics, including:* why Mr. Jung decided to focus on Ms. Butler as a subject* how reading her personal journals influenced Mr. Jung's approach to the piece* why contracts (professional and personal) were so important to Ms. Butler* manifesting (of course)* how Ms. Butler pushes us to imagine a better worldI hope you take a listen and let me know what you think.Thank you for listening to this week's issue. Hope you liked it.

Druck, Stress und Ängste sind im Sport ebenso Teil der Realität, wie Erfolg, Freude und Spaß. Über die "Schattenseiten" des Profisports, über die kaum jemand redet, sprechen wir in der neusten Podcast-Folge von THE GAME IS US. Dazu und zum Thema mentale Gesundheit berichtet der ehemalige Nationalspieler und DEL-Spieler, Alex Jung. Wir sprechen über seinen Werdegang, seine Karriere nach der Karriere, sein Mindest, seine negativen Erfahrungen und was er für sein Leben (Positives) daraus mitgenommen hat, wie auch über die Bedeutung von mentaler Gesundheit und was wir für ein glückliches Leben lernen können.

This show was one of the most popular episodes in the past 12 months, so enjoy this encore while I am in Chicago moderating a panel on pharmacy benefit management at the WTW Conference Board. But while I have you, I just wanted to thank everyone for listening. You really are a part of our Relentless Tribe, and I could not thank you enough for your commitment to doing the right thing for patients and for this country—and that dedication is evidenced by you listening as often as you do to Relentless Health Value. Our show has the largest following of individuals who are truly pushing hard for patients over profits, and since, according to LinkedIn anyway, 40% of our listeners are at the “highest level of seniority in their organization,” I'm guessing that we have the muscle to do this thing. Thanks for being part of the Relentless Tribe and for all that you do. In this healthcare podcast, I'm talking with Brian Klepper. If you haven't heard of him, Brian's a longtime healthcare analyst and former CEO of the National Business Coalition on Health. This interview takes off like a shot, as most of my conversations with Brian Klepper do. We're talking about primary care and its various iterations. We start out with Exhibit A—the HMO version of primary care from the '90s. This is a great comparator to really get a handle on what's going on today. During the heyday of HMOs (back in the '90s), primary care was basically a glorified gatekeeper kind of doing two things. On one hand, they were restricting access. It wasn't an accident that it was really hard to get an appointment with a PCP. On the other hand, it also wasn't an accident that, once you got there, the PCP only had 7 minutes to spend with you, which basically meant that you left with an appointment to see a specialist at, of course, the health system that probably had just bought that PCP practice. Everybody's happy then, right? Specialist volume goes up, they make a ton of money for the health system, plans make a ton of money because they make a percentage of total healthcare spend … Oh right, everybody's happy except the patient who can't get care and the PCP who can't do their job. By the way, for more information on why the '90s version of the HMO industry crashed and burned, listen to my conversation with Alex Jung on this exact topic. A big part of the “why” really actually took me by surprise. But back to primary care … Today, in broad strokes, we have three kinds of PCPs. And when I say three kinds of PCPs, we're not really counting urgent cares or what amounts to urgent cares in that mix—meaning, not counting a lot of the retail clinics because they don't really manage patient care like you'd hope a PCP would manage care. Last I checked, none of them were managing much more than an episodic visit. You can't manage a chronic condition in 15 minutes. So, like I said, there's three kinds of PCPs that are around today; and let's call the first kind the original PCP. This version of the PCP office is primarily fee for service (FFS). Maybe they have a couple of capitated contracts. But the distinguishing factor isn't really what their payer mix is. It's that they're not taking on much risk or any risk of real consequence. Second, we have direct primary care doctors. This group tends to cut out insurers and work directly with either employers or patients themselves. They take a monthly fee, and, in general, a patient can see them however much they need to. Again, no risk or little risk is assumed here beyond the primary care services themselves that are rendered. Third, we have what Brian calls industrialized primary care—or some people call it advanced primary care, or APC—but I'd probably call it something different. I'd call it “taking risk for the full continuum of care” primary care. Maybe I wouldn't even call it primary care at all because this third category really is starting to color outside of the lines of primary care. This third iteration requires many things to accomplish. It requires an unimpeachable relationship with the patient; you cannot be successful with this otherwise. It requires great virtual/digital capabilities. It also requires data—data to help ensure that care gaps are filled but also to make sure that patients are referred to high-quality, high-value specialists downstream who will actually create outcomes. It also includes optimizing specialty pharmaceutical usage, for example. Brian gets into this and how a state employee health plan is on track to save $1.3 billion in this fashion. Brian believes that this third iteration of primary care—this APC industrialized primary care—is the third leg of a three-legged stool that is needed to transform healthcare. If you must know, the second leg is identification and the use of high-performing specialty services; and the third is value-based reimbursement environment. Most of the second half of this conversation with Brian is about why there's just a flurry of investment into various forms of these advanced or just maybe even regular primary care models and how they might evolve moving forward. I ask Brian about Carbon Health and their recent claim that they can do primary care with about 25% to 30% EBITA, even at Medicare FFS rates. So, there's that. One last thing: We'll be posting an “Ask an Expert” with Brian Klepper, where he gives the backstory about how the RUC—that AMA committee—basically killed primary care. So, come back for that show after you're done with this one. It's a plot full of intrigue, that's for sure. You can learn more by emailing Brian at bklepper@worksitehealthadvisors.com.   Brian Klepper, PhD, is principal of Worksite Health Advisors and a nationally prominent healthcare analyst and commentator. He speaks, writes, and advises extensively on the management of clinical and financial risk, on high-performance healthcare, and on realizing the potential of primary care. His current focus is on high-performing healthcare organizations that consistently deliver better health outcomes at lower cost than usual approaches in high-value niches and how, integrated with advanced primary care, they can be configured into turnkey comprehensive high-value health plans that can disrupt the status quo.   05:59 Is the HMO model of primary care a good model? 08:36 “Industrialized medicine is exciting.” 09:44 What does primary care have the opportunity to do? 10:06 “The problem that goes along with that is that now immense amounts of money are being infused into primary care organizations.” 11:00 Where does direct primary care and advanced primary care fit into this model? 14:19 “At the end of the day, what primary care really needs to be about is … the management of life issues as well.” 14:48 EP295 with Rebecca Etz, PhD. 15:03 “Better relationships quantifiably translate to better care.” 22:21 “Almost nobody in healthcare wants any of this to happen.” 24:30 Why the huge amounts of money being invested into primary care is actually a big problem. 28:43 “We should be able to get wildly better health outcomes for about 40% to 45% of the money that we're currently spending.” You can learn more by emailing Brian at bklepper@worksitehealthadvisors.com.   @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp Is the HMO model of primary care a good model? @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “Industrialized medicine is exciting.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp What does primary care have the opportunity to do? @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “The problem that goes along with that is that now immense amounts of money are being infused into primary care organizations.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp Where does direct primary care and advanced primary care fit into this model? @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “At the end of the day, what primary care really needs to be about is … the management of life issues as well.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “Better relationships quantifiably translate to better care.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “Almost nobody in healthcare wants any of this to happen.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp Why the huge amounts of money being invested into primary care is actually a big problem. @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp “We should be able to get wildly better health outcomes for about 40% to 45% of the money that we're currently spending.” @bklepper1 discusses #primarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #pcp Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

I've heard of Christmas in July, but the 4th of July in December?! Jackie and Sarah were clearly going through it this summer. They ponder existential quandaries like "Is the G train still running?" and "When does South Park get good?" before examining the nuances of MTV's Next and how to politely ask your doctor for Adderall. Much love to Jennifer Coolidge. New episodes every other Wednesday. Follow the show at pleasedonttell.pod on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/pleasedonttell.pod/).

In this episode of 92Y Talks, indie musician and author Michelle Zauner (a.k.a. Japanese Breakfast) sits down with Vulture's E. Alex Jung to talk about her third album, Jubilee, and her new bestselling memoir, Crying in H Mart. Hear her discuss the inception of both the memoir and the record — writing about grief while making music about joy, the contrasts between writing books and writing songs, her upcoming projects, and much more. The conversation was recorded on August 19, 202

In the first episode of Hello Everyone Under Neoliberal Garbage, Heung Coalition members Kris, Alex Jung, Youngoh Jung and James Hillmer talk about ways to bridge the growing conversation around prison abolition with Heung's mission of redefining Korea(nness). We discuss ways that our individual engagement with Korea must account for calls for prison abolition in our local contexts. We end the podcast by discussing the ways embedded militarism and carceral thinking manifest in recent South Korean dramas. Kris (Twt: @nhsrk) is an LA-based unrepentant dilettante who works and on occasion writes. Alex Jung (Twt: @dotorithoughts) is based in Toronto and nudges group dynamics in and out of his 9-5 grind. Youngoh Jung (Twt: @YoungohJung) is a PhD candidate at UCSD studying and writing on the history of alternative community formations and notions of belonging in the Korean American diaspora. James Hillmer (IG: @jdhillmer) is a PhD candidate in Korean history at UCLA writing a dissertation about the development of the South Korean carceral system under U.S. occupation and the early Cold War. ---------- Heung (흥) Coalition is committed to the ongoing struggle of (re)defining Korea(nness) with the goal of generating and sharing multiple narratives and perspectives on Korea. We take our name from the Korean character 흥 | 興 | “Heung” to reference the animate quality of movements—not only the pain and suffering, but the joy, excitement, anger, and the possibilities engendered by collectivizing and fighting for change.

Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: A group of Democratic Senators led by Bernie Sanders have introduced a bill to raise taxes on companies who overpay their executives. Members of Congress also heard testimony yesterday from an Amazon worker fighting for higher wages and better conditions. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden spoke to the fears of many Asian-Americans after the deadly mass shooting in Atlanta. Despite hemming and hawing from police, a local press report suggests there is no doubt the killer was motivated by racist hatred. And lastly, the IRS is planning to push back this year’s tax filing deadline by a full month. But the agency’s huge backlog also means delays in getting stimulus payments out to the public. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Amazon faced fresh scrutiny for its treatment of workers at a Senate hearing yesterday on income inequality, the Washington Post reports. The focus came as senators introduced a new bill to tax chief executives who make fifty times more than the median workers. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont drilled into the gap between most Americans and billionaires during his opening remarks, pointing to data that billionaires have gained significant wealth during the pandemic. Sanders’s Tax Excessive CEO Pay Act would impose increased taxes on companies that have CEOs making significantly more than a median worker at the firm. It is also sponsored by Democratic Senators Elizabeth Warren and Edward Markey of Massachusetts, as well as Chris Van Hollen of Maryland. The bill includes stock options and awards as part of a CEO’s salaries, and if the CEO is not the highest-paid employee at the company, the equation would be based on who is. Sanders invited Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos to testify at the Budget Committee hearing, the Post reports, but he declined to appear. Jennifer Bates, an Amazon worker at the company’s warehouse in Bessemer, Alabama, testified about the unionization efforts there. Bates said the company had been holding meetings to discourage workers from joining the union, sometimes multiple times a week. Voting by mail is already underway in Alabama and will end March 29. President Joe Biden expressed support for the union late last month. Bates outlined why she believes workers need the union – to advocate for better working conditions and a higher living wage. Working at an Amazon warehouse is no easy thing, she said, adding QUOTE They seem to think you are another machine ENDQUOTE. Every worker deserves to be treated like a human. Biden Addresses Atlanta Killings President Biden yesterday addressed the spa shootings in Atlanta that left eight people dead, NBC News reports. He said he understands the concern among Asian Americans as investigators work to determine a motive. Biden said QUOTE Whatever the motivation here, I know Asian Americans, they are very concerned, because as you know I have been speaking about the brutality against Asian Americans, and it's troubling ENDQUOTE. Biden said that he had spoken on the phone yesterday with the attorney general and the FBI director and that a motive for the shootings was still being determined. A gunman shot and killed eight people at three massage spa parlors in the Atlanta area on Tuesday night, and six of the victims were women of Asian decent. Cherokee County sheriff's Captain Jay Baker said that after a brief manhunt, Robert Aaron Long, twenty one, was arrested and later confessed to the attack. According to NBC, Baker said in a news conference yesterday that Long claimed that the attack was not racially motivated. Baker said that Long told investigators that he had a sex addiction and that he saw the spas as QUOTE a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate ENDQUOTE. But according to local Korean-language press translated by New York magazine writer E. Alex Jung, Long screamed during his attack that he would kill all the Asians. Last week we told you how anti-Asian hate crimes have spiked during the pandemic. According to a new study cited by CBS News, Asian Americans were subjected to nearly three thousand eight hundred hate incidents over the last year. Verbal harassment and shunning accounted for sixty eight percent of the incidents. Physical violence accounted for eleven percent. It’s gotta stop, and it would help if authorities didn’t dither about the perpetrators’ movitves. IRS May Delay Tax Deadline Good news for procrastinators: The Internal Revenue Service is expected to postpone the country’s tax-filing deadline to mid-May, the Washington Post reports. The agency is grappling with a backlog of twenty four million returns awaiting processing since the 2019 tax year. The workload has put the agency underwater – and under political siege – as lawmakers fret that long-unresolved troubles at the IRS could undercut the Biden administration’s economic recovery efforts. Millions of Americans still have not received some stimulus checks under prior coronavirus aid packages, even as the tax agency continued distributing payments yesterday. The IRS shared the full scope of its backlog with the House Ways and Means Committee and the agency’s own government watchdogs. The numbers, obtained by the Post, dwarf the data the IRS has shared with the public. The effects of the IRS backlog have been substantial: The delays have kept some Americans from receiving their tax refunds for months while preventing some cash-strapped workers and companies from taking advantage of some of the stimulus benefits that Congress authorized. The IRS communicated its plans to adjust the tax-filing deadline to House and Senate lawmakers yesterday. Ken Corbin, commissioner of the wage and investment division at the IRS, declined to discuss the potential changes to the tax-filing deadline during an interview with the Post yesterday. But he said the situation reflects the many, many challenges the country and agency have faced because of the virus and other more recent obstacles, including inclement weather. The delays threaten the IRS’s ability to deliver an array of new relief under the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan and could result in uncomfortable questions for IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig, who is set to testify before the House Ways and Means Committee today. I wonder if he’ll blame the weather, too. AND NOW FOR SOME QUICKER QUICKIES: FBI agents have arrested two organizers for the Proud Boys in Philadelphia and North Carolina, and prosecutors filed new charges against two other prominent members of the far- right group in Florida and Washington State as federal authorities continued their crackdown on its leadership ranks, the New York Times reports. Named in the indictment are Charles Donohoe, Zach Rehl, Ethan Nordean, and Joseph Biggs. They effed around and found out. Texas attorney general Ken Paxton said Griddy Energy will forgive the more than $29 million owed by customers in unpaid bills, NBC reports. As people struggled to survive the recent storm, Griddy debited enormous amounts from customer accounts, Paxton said. He had sued the company under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, and is still negotiating for relief to people who already paid their bills, which surged as high as $10,000 after the storm. The gall of these vultures! A United Nations report slammed multiple countries for flagrantly violating a global arms embargo by funneling weapons to warring sides in Libya, the Washington Post reports. A a UN-appointed panel of experts documented scores of shipments of illicit items, including drones and transport aircraft, as well as the deployment of mercenaries, to Libya’s two chief factions. Russia, Turkey, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and others are implicated. What an awful, tragic mess. Donald Trump’s son Eric, who runs the family’s private company, touted the potential of transforming their Doral golf resort into a gambling destination, according to the Post. The business pivot comes amid a push among Florida Republicans to legalize casinos in areas of the state that have long opposed them. During Trump’s presidency, revenue at the heavily indebted club dropped steeply, falling forty four percent last year. A failing club: Sad.

When shelter-in-place began in March, we watched as TV hosts filmed shows from home, unstyled and in casual clothes, and later followed the NBA into its bubble. And we turned to the internet even more for connection and entertainment, spurring a unique “Quarantine Culture” according E. Alex Jung, senior writer at New York Magazine. It’s a culture where, as Jung wrote, "the internet became more internet — an ever-thickening soup of private derangements and niche dramas." Whether it was comedian Sarah Cooper lip-synching Trump’s speeches for the app TikTok, building a virtual world in games like “Animal Crossing” or enjoying the otherwise unlikely opportunity to see your favorite artists perform a show from home — “we were all extremely online,” Jung said. We talk with Jung about the year in “Quarantine Culture” and the forms of entertainment we enjoyed — or made ourselves — on the internet.

The first doses of the COVID vaccine were administered in the US today. All 538 members of the electoral college will cast their votes for president today. The Library of Congress announced the 25 films that will be added to the National Film Registry this year. The “Elf” Cast reunited for a table read, and it's giving us some much-needed joy. AND we’re joined by Vulture’s E. Alex Jung to discuss the HBO Max hit, Veneno. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers

This week we discuss 'the letter', E. Alex Jung's profile of Michaela Coel, and 'Wendy, Master of Art'.

We're (supposedly only) six months into 2020, so Emily and Ed take the opportunity to take stock of the film, TV and other media from the year that they have enjoyed. They also talk about spending time in "the hell zone," E. Alex Jung's profiles of Michaela Coel and Thandie Newton, and the death of Naya Rivera. 00:00:00 - 00:29:04 - Intro & News 00:29:05 - 01:11:52 - Emily & Ed talk about their cultural highlights of the year so far 01:11:53 - 01:12:30 - Outro

Boy, do we have a lot to crack into this week. First up, how did we miss Jessica Mulroney getting cancelled? And has Michaela Coel opened the floodgates on pay transparency in the entertainment industry? Then it's onto Jada Pinkett Smith and *that* Red Table Talk interview. Smith has single-handedly taken control of the 'celebrity tell-all' by orchestrating one herself. Is she really turning the medium on its head? Or has she just beat the media machine by rebranding a carefully crafted publicity statement as a 'juicy exclusive'? Why are so few people willing to condemn her predatory behaviour? And what does this all tell us about the way Hollywood golden couples turn themselves into multi-million dollar brands? Then, it's all things #FreeBritney. We explain the 'conservatorship' that has kept 38-year-old Britney Spears legally confined in her home for 12 years. What does it actually mean and what can we do about it? And on the eve of a new HBO documentary about the phenomenon of child stars, we wonder if child stardom is, by its nature, immoral. Listen now and, as always, rate, review and subscribe.

Korean director Bong Joon-ho has a long-running interest in films about family, one that’s mirrored in two of his best-known films: His international breakout THE HOST and his new film PARASITE, both of which star Song Kang-ho as a father trying to keep things together on his kids’ behalf, and both of which are about the sense of duty among protagonists who have to improv their way through unexpected situations. In this half of our pairing, we revisit Bong’s monster movie THE HOST with a focus on its human cast and their family dynamic, and consider how the film’s political and emotional elements square with Bong’s insistence that there is “realism” at the heart of this movie about a rampaging fish-monster. Plus, we continue to wade through the sea of feedback we’ve received on our episodes on THE DARK KNIGHT and JOKER. Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about THE HOST, PARASITE, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.   Show Notes: Works Cited: “Bong Joon-ho’s Dystopia Is Already Here,” by E.

The Immigrant Time Warp is the phenomenon in which immigrants are locked into the social norms of their native countries at the time they left. Thus, they remain cultural time capsules, often unable to evolve with either their new cultures or their old ones. T.K., creator of the popular website Ask A Korean, has written about this issue on his blog and joins Oxford and returning guest Quyen to talk more about this topic, especially how it affects the children of these immigrants.

Happy mid-The Walking Dead hiatus!   It’s been three months since we saw the last episode of season 8 and it will be another three months until season 9 starts. San Diego Comic Con is next week, and along with that comes a trailer and premiere date for season 9. Also, it’s 7/12. Also, it’s our two year anniversary! So what better way to celebrate than to talk about the love that keeps us going: the love between Rick Grimes and Michonne. Let’s say it all together now: Richonne!   We sat down to speak with Erin Qualey (Hidden Remote), Ashley Jordan (Richonne fanfiction writer) and Bim Adewunmi (BuzzFeed senior culture writer, co-host of the Thirst Aid Kit podcast) about all manner of things, including how Richonne's relationship helped both parties move from a place of hurt to a place of healing, the real world effects that this fictional interracial couple has on representation of black women in the medium and the intimacy and desire that these two characters (by way of two amazing actors) bring to the screen. But these conversations will take you everywhere; we may start with intimacy, but we may end up shading Michonne’s wig or talking about flicking Kirkman on his forehead (we say “we,” but we really mean Bim, though we completely co-sign). We loved having these kick-ass women on for these intelligent, hilarious and meaningful conversations.   We also reveal the winning moment of our our #ChampionsOfRichonne bracket and, along with that, the person who won our crazy huge Champions of Richonne prize pack.

In this episode, Anita and Carolyn are joined by special guest, comedian Irene Tu! We all endured the epic Oscars ceremony last weekend to discuss our favorite moments, our reactions to the winners, and whether or not things in Hollywood are actually getting better. Then, in keeping with the cinematic theme, we recount our disorienting experiences in the shimmer after seeing Annihilation. What does it all mean? Was it any good? What’s with making the main character a white woman? Finally, we each share something we’ve been thinking about in What’s Your FREQ-Out, which gives Irene a chance to talk about just why people have been showing her so many drugs lately.

We've missed you during the hiatus, thirst-buckets! Thankfully we had OUR VERY FIRST LIVE SHOW before the withdrawal symptoms began to hit really hard. Recorded on Monday February 12th in New York, we discussed Black Panther, supervillain, um,... prowess, underrated romcoms, K-dramas, and even indulged in some public communal swooning. We had lovely guests – our old pal Krutika Mallikarjuna and new kid on the (thirst) block, E. Alex Jung – and we also had some adult goodies to give away thanks to our German-American pals at Fun Factory. We did something a little bit different with our drabbles in Fanfic Wars, and last but not least, we laughed a lot. So if you didn't make it, grab a glass of something chilled and settle in. AND STAY TUNED because we'll be back in March with regular episodes and so much thirsting *Cardi B. tongue*.

“Conventional wisdom suggests that the temptations of Washington, D.C., corrupt all the idealists, naïfs, and ingenues who settle there," Franklin Foer writes in his cover story for the March issue of The Atlantic. "But what if that formulation gets the causation backwards? What if it took an outsider to debase the capital and create the so-called swamp?” Before Paul Manafort led the campaign to position Donald Trump as the ultimate Washington outsider, Manafort had built a career on being the consummate D.C. insider. Foer tells the story of Manafort's rise and fall, his stint as a consigliere to oligarchs, and the lines he was willing to cross in lobbying and political consulting. Foer joins Jeff and Matt to describe how Manafort's career is a window into the rise of corruption in America. Links - “The Plot Against America” (Franklin Foer, March 2018 Issue) - “How the Swamp Drained Trump” (McKay Coppins, January 30, 2018) - “Dictatorships & Double Standards” (Jeane Kirkpatrick, Commentary, November 1, 1979) - The Soul of a New Machine (Tracy Kidder, 1981) - “Mackenzie Davis Answers the Tough Questions” (E.

This episode is an (allegedly) amazing discussion between Josh and associate editor at Vulture E. Alex Jung. It's (reportedly) all about representation in media – or the lack thereof. They (may or may not) talk about where you can find asian people on TV, why more and more online publications are scared to publish controversial opinions, and America's festering prejudices. (We cannot confirm or deny that) they diddle around topics like who in Hollywood might be using their powers for evil, or how exactly those people could silence their critics. Legally speaking, there's no way to know if any of this is true or not without listening to Episode 57 yourself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
