Mire érdemes használni az irodalomterápiát és hol húzódnak a módszer határai? Hogyan hat ránk, ha elkezdjük leírni a gondolatainkat egy papírra? Hogyan lesz egy dalszöveg az irodalomterápia eszköze? És kik azok a szerzők, akiknek írásaival szinte minden irodalomterapeuta dolgozik? Nemrég jelent meg az irodalomterápia egyik legelismertebb szakértőjének, Nicholas Mazzának átfogó, gyakorlati példákkal teletűzdelt könyve magyarul, így adta magát, hogy erről beszélgessünk a Nem rossz könyvek podcastban. Vendégünk a kötet fordítója, Béres Judit, a PTE BTK docense, a biblioterápia továbbképzési szak szakfelelőse, valamint Péczely Dóra, aki szerkesztőként számos kortárs íróval dolgozott együtt, és aki amellett, hogy maga is vezet irodalomterápiás csoportokat, Mazza kötetét is szerkesztette. A tartalomból: 00.00 Könyvek, amiket ajánlunk: Eward Stachura - Szekercelárma, Macuie Maszasi - A vulkán lábánál, David Graeber & David Wengrow - Mindenek hajnala, Karl Ove Knausgård - A harmadik birodalom, Andrea Bajani - Tíz év, Neigge Sinno - Nyomorult tigris 09:15 És akkor az irodalomterápia. És mai vendégeink, Béres Judit és Péczely Dóra. És rögtön a kérdés: hogyan lesz valakiből irodalomterapeuta? 19:50 Miről beszélünk, ha irodalomterápiáról beszélünk? „Nem költőket állítunk elő, hanem támogatjuk a lehetőségét, hogy alkotás által gyógyuljunk.” 30:00 Pár név, aki rendszeresen előkerül az irodalomterápiák során: Tóth Krisztina, Nádasdy Ádám, Szabó T. Anna és Lázár Ervin, de látszik, hogy a kánon is működik. Plusz kortárs dalszövegek, amik nagyon mennek. 44:00 Megszabadulni attól a gáttól, hogy a szövegre státuszszimbólumként tekintsünk és az érzelmek szerepe. És akinek jó magyar tanára volt, annak nem is lesz túl meglepő egy irodalomterápiás csoport. 53:00 Mi történik velünk, ha leülünk egy papír elé egy tollal? És mi történik az agyunkban? 60.00 Csoportdinamikák, traumafeldolgozás és kompetenciahatárok 70:00 Ajánlott könyvek a végén: Kosztolányi Dezső - Édes Anna, Szabó T. Anna - Vigasz, Harry Potter-sorozat, A Mester és Margarita, Karl Ove Knausgård - Harcom, James Joyce - Ulysses, Kosztolányi Dezső - Aranysárkány, Jón Kalman Stefánsson - Versek.

Colin reports back on his trip to London, On where theyve converted an apartment building into Supportive Housing Units. These units are designed for the homeless to have a safe place to recover after a visit to the hospital. We discuss the unfortunate reality where there is always someone that can make a group of people look bad, sort of like Dane Cook's bit, “Brian's Coming”. Is working at work always necessary? Does it always mean better work? We discussed a lot about work and jobs and terrible bosses and the book “Bullshit Jobs” by David Graeber. If your job disappeared, would the world notice? What does work-life balance mean to you, does your boss know too?

Cyril Dion fait partie intégrante du paysage médiatique avec son engagement écologique : militant, auteur, réalisateur. Il engage autant de projets qui réparent le monde, et le répare à lui, aussi.Avec sa poésie, il nous invite à faire du vide pour que l'espace puisse émerger. Il questionne les résistances face au temps long, l'aliénation de nos conditionnement, le présent comme seul état qui existe. Pour lui, la crise écologique est une crise spirituelle, et arriver à plonger dans du temps profond est une urgence.Est-ce que ça sert encore à quelque chose d'alerter sur les enjeux climatiques ? Par les temps qui courent, comment garder espoir ? Qu'est-ce qui dans l'art, reconnecte à ce qui donne du sens à une vie ?C'est autant de questions que Cyril Dion se pose, et autant de réponses qu'il nous partage dans cet épisode.Avec lui sur Nouvel Œil, on parle de poésie, de présent, et de réparation.J'espère que cette écoute t'invitera à faire du vide pour que l'espace émerge.Belle écoute ! ☀️ ---Cette saison de podcasts est soutenue par Nouveau Monde, un fonds de dotation qui facilite l'accès à la méditation et à la pleine conscience, en France.Pour retrouver l'EDLN.Si tu as aimé cet épisode, tu peux le partager, écrire un commentaire dans la description et laisser des étoiles sur ta plateforme d'écoute ! ---

Jacques and Jennifer discuss some ideas from Rutger Bregman's new book: Moral ambition: Stop wasting your talent and start making a difference.Two themes of interest are: (1) the social and communal nature of making meaningful change: it is not done by lone 'stars' but by people working collectively over time, and (2) the processes of making change are important, not just the end goal or outcome i.e. the 'relational' processes and how we treat each other along the way.Jennifer and Jacques challenge Bregman's under-rating of the importance of 'awareness raising' for creating change. They think it is more important than ever, given the dominant narratives that hide the truth about pervading injustice, inequality and oppression, not to mention rightwing saturation of social media with conspiracy theories and misinformation.ReferencesRutger Bregman (2025) Moral ambition: Stop wasting your talent and start making a difference, Bloomsbury Publishing.David Graeber (2018) Bullshit Jobs: The Rise of Pointless Work and What we can do about it.…Penguin BooksRutger Bregmans' panel and speech at the 2019 WEF Davos gathering: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5LtFnmPruU Carole Cadwalladr, the journalist who broke the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook data breach scandal being interviewed on Jon Stewart's Daily Show: #DailyShow #JonStewart #CaroleCadwalladr3CR (inaugural) program on relationality: www.3cr.org.au/thinkagain/relationality-our-modus-vivendi

Episode Notes Alec talks to Nika Dubrovsky about Anthropology for Kids, a project she started with her husband, anthropologist David Graeber. Referenced in this Episode: Anthopology for Kids Cities Made Differently by David Graeber and Nika Dubrovsky The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber and David Wengrow David Graeber on the Charlie Rose Show Debt: The First 5000 Years by David Graeber David Graeber and Nika Dubrovsky, “Another Art World, Part 1: Art Communism and Artificial Scarcity” David Graeber and Nika Dubrovsky, “Another Art World Part 2: Utopia of Freedom as a Market Value”

Extensive Notes: "No Dummy: AI Will Not Replace Coders"Introduction: The Critical Thinking ProblemAmerica faces a critical thinking deficit, especially evident in narratives about AI automating developers' jobsSpeaker advocates for examining the narrative with core critical thinking skillsSuggests substituting the dominant narrative with alternative explanationsAlternative Explanation 1: Non-Productive EmployeesOrganizations contain people who do "absolutely nothing"If you fire a person who does no work, there will be no impactThese non-productive roles exist in academics, management, and technical industriesReference to David Graeber's book "Bullshit Jobs" which categorizes meaningless jobs:Task mastersBox tickersGoonsWhen these jobs are eliminated, AI didn't replace them because "the job didn't need to exist"Alternative Explanation 2: Low-Skilled DevelopersSome developers have "very low or no skills, even negative skills"Firing someone who writes "buggy code" and replacing them with a more productive developer (even one using auto-completion tools) isn't AI replacing a jobThese developers have "negative value to an organization"Removing such developers would improve the company regardless of automationUsing better tools, CI/CD, or software engineering best practices to compensate for their removal isn't AI replacementAlternative Explanation 3: Basic Automation with Traditional ToolsSoftware engineers have been automating tasks for decades without AISpeaker's example: At Disney Future Animation (2003), replaced manual weekend maintenance with bash scripts"A bash script is not AI. It has no form of intelligence. It's a for loop with some conditions in it."Many companies have poor processes that can be easily automated with basic scriptsThis automation has "absolutely nothing to do with AI" and has "been happening for the history of software engineering"Alternative Explanation 4: Narrow vs. General IntelligenceUseful applications of machine learning exist:Linear regressionK-means clusteringAutocompletionTranscriptionThese are "narrow components" with "zero intelligence"Each component does a specific task, not general intelligence"When someone says you automated a job with a large language model, what are you talking about? It doesn't make sense."LLMs are not intelligent; they're task-based systemsAlternative Explanation 5: OutsourcingCompanies commonly outsource jobs to lower-cost regionsJobs claimed to be "taken by AI" may have been outsourced to India, Mexico, or ChinaThis practice is common in America despite questionable ethicsOrganizations may falsely claim AI automation when they've simply outsourced workAlternative Explanation 6: Routine Corporate LayoffsLarge companies routinely fire ~3% of their workforce (Apple, Amazon mentioned)Fear is used as a motivational tool in "toxic American corporations"The "AI is coming for your job" narrative creates fear and motivationMore likely explanations: non-productive employees, low-skilled workers, simple automation, etc.The Marketing and Sales DeceptionCEOs (specifically mentions Anthropic and OpenAI) make false claims about agent capabilities"The CEO of a company like Anthropic... is a liar who said that software engineering jobs will be automated with agents"Speaker claims to have used these tools and found "they have no concept of intelligence"Sam Altman (OpenAI) characterized as "a known liar" who "exaggerates about everything"Marketing people with no software engineering background make claims about coding automationCompanies like NVIDIA promote AI hype to sell GPUsConclusion: The Real Problem"AI" is a misnomer for large language modelsThese are "narrow intelligence" or "narrow machine learning" systemsThey "do one task like autocomplete" and chain these tasks togetherThere is "no concept of intelligence embedded inside"The speaker sees a bigger issue: lack of critical thinking in AmericaWarns that LLMs are "dumb as a bag of rocks" but powerful toolsLeft in inexperienced hands, these tools could create "catastrophic software"Rejects the narrative that "AI will replace software engineers" as having "absolutely zero evidence"Key Quotes"We have a real problem with critical thinking in America. And one of the places that is very evident is this false narrative that's been spread about AI automating developers jobs.""If you fire a person that does no work, there will be no impact.""I have been automating people's jobs my entire life... That's what I've been doing with basic scripts. A bash script is not AI.""Large language models are not intelligent. How could they possibly be this mystical thing that's automating things?""By saying that AI is going to come for your job soon, it's a great false narrative to spread fear where people worry about all the AI is coming.""Much more likely the story of AI is that it is a very powerful tool that is dumb as a bag of rocks and left into the hands of the inexperienced and the naive and the fools could create catastrophic software that we don't yet know how bad the effects will be."

Hoy leemos el capitulo introductorio de Fragmentos de Antropología Anarquista del antropólogo David Graeber, lectura indispensable.¡Disfruten!

En este episodio de Antropología Pop me meto con El Eternauta, tanto en su versión original como en la serie actual, para pensar cómo se organizan las sociedades cuando el Estado desaparece. A partir de autores como Pierre Clastres, David Graeber y Marshall Sahlins, exploro cómo la historieta funciona como un experimento narrativo sobre la cooperación, la autodefensa y la solidaridad en tiempos extremos. ¿Qué nos dice El Eternauta sobre el poder, el miedo y el "nosotros"? Una lectura desde la antropología para un clásico que sigue interpelando.

În 1 mai, sărbătorim Ziua Muncii – o zi care amintește de conflictele sindicale din secolul al XIX-lea, o sărbătoare care în prezent, ne oferă prilejul de a reflecta asupra felului în care muncim și ne raportăm la ideea de muncă. Așa ajungem și la cuvîntul „robot”. În limba română, el vine din slavonul rabota, care înseamnă chiar „muncă”. Conceptul de robot i-l datorăm scriitorului ceh Karel Čapek, care l-a introdus într-o piesă publicată în 1920. Azi, într-o lume în care inteligența artificială și roboții industriali transformă cu totul unele profesii, ce mai înseamnă munca pentru noi? Ce pierdem și ce cîștigăm atunci cînd munca devine tot mai „robotizată”? Ce fel de munci nu vor putea fi înlocuite niciodată de roboţi? L-am întrebat peRadu Uszkai, cercetător la Centrul de Cercetare în Etică Aplicată.Radu Uszkai: „Provocarea cea mai mare nu este neapărat să găsim muncă. Sînt sceptic că e posibil un viitor, ce puţin într-un interval de timp mediu, în care să ne pierdem în mod fundamental tot ceea ce înseamnă locurile de muncă în dauna tehnologiilor noi şi emergente. Însă ce trebuie să căutăm şi ce ne e dificil de fapt să găsim este un soi de cadru instituţional în care muncim cu sens. E o discuţie absolut fascinantă în zona filosofiei politice şi a eticii aplicate vizavi de tema aceasta a meaningful work, a muncii cu sens pentru noi. Şi sînt nişte condiţii cheie despre care filosofii care discută pe această temă le aduc în discuţie, despre cum munca trebuie să le permită celor care o prestează un spaţiu de autonomie, trebuie să le ofere un sens, oamenii să se poată raporta la munca pe care o prestează ca făcînd parte din modul în care ei îşi concep sensul vieţii, să le ofere un context prielnic în care să intre în interacţiuni de valoare cu alte persoane din cadrul comunităţii lor. Şi, cel puţin pentru mine, în momentul de faţă marea provocare nu e dacă o să ne pierdem toţi locurile de muncă sau dacă o să dispară toate locurile de muncă, ci în ce măsură majoritatea covîrşitoare a locurilor de muncă ce vor fi disponibile pe piaţă vor fi genul de locuri de muncă ce ne vor da sens, de unde noi vom putea deriva ceva de valoare pentru vieţile noastre sau dacă vor fi aşa-zisele bullshit jobs, despre care vorbeşte în detaliu David Graeber.”Apasă PLAY pentru a asculta interviul integral!O emisiune de Adela Greceanu şi Matei Martin  Un produs Radio România Cultural  

Was uns wirklich bewegt – ein Gespräch über Spiritualität, Wahrheit und Veränderung Vor einiger Zeit hat Sabine einen Artikel über mich veröffentlicht – und ich kann ehrlich sagen: Es war einer der berührendsten und treffendsten Texte, die je über mich geschrieben wurden. Warum? Weil Sabine nicht nur Journalistin ist, sondern auch ein Mensch mit Tiefgang. Wir teilen ähnliche Werte und eine tiefe Verbindung zu Wahrheit, Freiheit und spirituellem Wachstum. In dieser Folge sprechen wir über unsere persönliche Reise zur Spiritualität, über den Wunsch nach einem authentischen Leben – und darüber, wie Veränderung manchmal die einzige Antwort ist. Wir reden offen über das Thema Auswandern, unsere Gedanken zur Zukunft Deutschlands und wie wir Wege finden, uns selbst treu zu bleiben, auch wenn sich alles verändert. Eine ehrliche Folge über innere Kompasse, Neuanfänge und das, was bleibt. Sabine Breit – Linguistin, Unternehmerin, Beaterin, Konferenzdolmetscherin und Autorin – hilft Menschen in Unternehmen unterschiedlichster Größe seit 30 Jahren dabei, ihrer Stimme Gehör zu verschaffen, einander zu verstehen und miteinander zu arbeiten. Ferner hat sie an Prozessen und Strukturen mitgebaut, die dies unterstützen. Sie durchdringt Übersetzungsprozesse auf der Metaebene, d. h. als das Grundprinzip jeder menschlichen Interaktion. Auf der Grundlage ihrer Erfahrungen und Einsichten hat sie ein Rahmenwerk entwickelt, mit dem Interaktionen besser verstanden und gestaltet werden können, was Einzelpersonen und Unternehmen dabei hilft, bessere Entscheidungen zu treffen und operative Exzellenz zu erreichen.

My guest today is Nika Dubrovsky. Nika is an artist and writer whose work has been exhibited internationally, her children's books have been translated into several languages and, remarkably, as you'll hear in the episode, Nika is directly responsible for bringing Russian translations of Dr. Suess to post-Soviet Russia.Nika is the co-creator of Anthropology For Kids alongside her late husband: Anthropologist, best selling author, and activist, David Graeber, who passed away suddenly in 2020. A4Kids.org is an open-source platform which experiments with new educational formats. After David's passing, Nika also founded the David Graeber Institute as a platform to develop ideas and projects that continue his legacy.Most of Nika's projects are dedicated to the building and maintaining of social relationships, among which are the “Museum of Care”, a nomadic ‘anti' institute, and the Playground of the Future, a collaborative and interactive art project imagining playgrounds as a space of collectivity and care. “Playgrounds are vital public spaces,” she writes, “—they bring communities together, bridging generations and social divides. They're also about fun and play, which is exactly the kind of atmosphere we need when making collective decisions. A network of community-built playgrounds, designed around Visual Assemblies, could become spaces where people gather, play, and make decisions together.”https://museum.care/playgrounds-notes-from-the-curator/ Anthropology For Kidshttps://museum.care/ Radical Playgrounds: From Competition to CollaborationCities Made Differently (MIT Press)David Graeber Institute Hosted on Acast.

Today, we are learning from Ana Rosa de Lima. Ana is the founder of Meli Bees Network gUG, a nonprofit driven by a new generation of climate activists from the Amazon. Her organization is dedicated to connecting Indigenous communities, researchers, and environmentally engaged groups around the world to foster impactful climate action. Ana is a part of the new generation of leaders from the Amazon area, who witnessed first-hand the rapid adverse changes to her childhood environment. She connects the regenerators deeply involved and concerned with her region, to develop activities involving meliponiculture, environmental education and research, to ensure thriving beekeeping practices in the Amazon. This is a long-term regenerative model for the region. Let's get started... My apologies for the sound quality on my end. I made a mistake. In this conversation with Ana Rosa de Lima, I learned: 00:00 Intro 03:15 Her story of growing up in Brazil. 04:50 Why it is good to have the COP 30 in Brazil. 06:25 The biggest challenge for locals and hosting COP in this area. 07:55 The story of the first workshop with the Guajajara people and the fires in the Aamzone in the background in the video. 10:00 How the study about mining brought her in contact with the indigenous communities. 12:20 Ana explains the reason why she started the materials engineering study. 14:05 The scholarship, Science without borders, made it possible for Ana to go abroad during her education. 16:00 How the online conversations and meetings reduce travel and keep the footprint low. 19:55 How the Meli bees network started and why it started in Germany. 27:25 The goal and result of the crowdfunding. 28:25 The goal was always bigger than just the bees. The bee as a metaphor for the work they do. 31:20 The Meli Bees network stretches beyond Brazil. 33:40 How the health of these communities is negatively influenced by the industrialized food. 36:05 The effect of mining resources on indigenous communities, that we in the Western world don't see. 40:20 The impact of indigenous people on the revolution and democracy in the 1700s. 41:55 We don't need to be afraid of new ideas coming from other countries and cultures. 46:30 The people who wrote the history win, mostly white men. That is why we don't learn much about women and black people in history or indigenous history. 49:35 The wish of the Meli bees community to learn more about the indigenous history. 50:20 The funding of the network and the projects of the non-profit organisation. 51:55 Three events in Germany that you are invited to: 13-15 March 2025, Bonn, Dortmund, and Essen.

Cruel, petty and occasionally magnanimous, fates rule our lives, determining everything from our careers and romances to our financial success. Despite a burgeoning academic literature studying luck and the occasional theoretical probabilist complaining about Bayesian statistics, we haven't brought the chance of chaotic complex systems into the classroom, and that's particularly true in political science and international relations. That should change, and play-based learning offer new forms of education for future generations.Joining host Danny Crichton and Riskgaming director of programming Laurence Pevsner is Nicholas Rush Smith, director of the Master's Program in International Affairs at The City College of New York and its Graduate Center. His students graduate into plum assignments across international organizations like the United Nations, and he has been increasingly utilizing simulations and experiential learning to transform how future international civil servants learn their craft.We talk about Nick's recent experience playing “Powering Up,” our Riskgaming scenario focused on China's electric vehicle market. Then we talk about the power of play, how dopamine affects the learning cycle, why losing is the best education for winning, David Graeber's ideas around the balance between rules and play, and finally, how play-based learning can teach principles used in even the most bureaucratic institutions like the United Nations and the U.S. Army.Produced by ⁠⁠⁠⁠Christopher Gates⁠⁠⁠⁠Music by ⁠⁠⁠⁠George Ko

Guest: David Heinemeier Hansson, CTO & co-owner of 37signals and creator of Ruby on Rails 37signals CTO David Heinemeier Hansson has organized his life around his passions: Writing, racing sports cars, and coding. “ Why aren't we all doing that?” he wonders. “Why aren't we all trying to optimize our life in such a way that much of it is enjoyable?”Part of the problem, David argues, is that it's impossible to find a creative or productive flow inside of mainstream work culture. Open offices, managerial over-hiring, and sloppy scheduling prevents people from reaching a flow state.“40 hours a week is plenty than most people,” he says. “... So many people today are focused on just adding more and more hours. They're not thinking about how those hours are spent.” Chapters:(01:19) - 24 Hours of Le Mans (06:48) - Amateurs in sports car racing (10:54) - Flow and meditation (15:25) - Mundane bulls**t (18:14) - Optimizing for flow (21:09) - Calendars and open offices (24:30) - Full-time managers (29:06) - Small companies (32:20) - Selfishness and work (40:21) - Taking other people's money (45:43) - Temptation (49:49) - Moderately rich (55:19) - “The day I became a millionaire” (58:56) - The hassle (01:03:58) - Achieving the dream (01:08:34) - Shopify and Tobias Lütke (01:14:50) - Trade-offs and downsides (01:18:43) - The impact of Ruby on Rails (01:22:02) - “I love being wrong” (01:25:37) - DEI and illegal drugs (01:29:49) - Not hiring (01:30:35) - What “grit” means to David Mentioned in this episode: TikTok, Minecraft, Mario Kart, Formula One, NASCAR, Lewis Hamilton, the NBA, Tesla Model S, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Steve McQueen, Jason Fried, Tetris, Bullshit Jobs: A Theory by David Graeber, Elon Musk and Twitter, the Dunbar number, Zappos, Google, Adam Smith, Stripe, Meta, Jeff Bezos, Basecamp, Zapier, 1Password, GitHub, SpaceX, private jets, Aesop, the Pagani Zonda, the Porsche Boxster, Lamborghini, Coco Chanel, LeBron James, Hey, Steve Jobs, Michael Arrington and TechCrunch, Y Combinator, Dr. Thomas Sowell,Punished by Rewards by Alfie Kohn, Grit by Angela Duckworth, and LEGO. Links:Connect with DavidTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

Keine Angst, es geht nicht um Politik oder die Frage, ob wir eine Schuldenbremse benötigen. Es geht um Dich und Dein Unternehmen und die Klärung der Frage, warum Du ohne Schulden zu machen kaum ein solides Unternehmen in gewisser Größe wirst aufbauen können. Das Buch, dass ich Dir dazu empfehle, ist von David Graeber und heißt Schulden, die ersten 5000 Jahre. Dort erläutert der Autor sehr anschaulich, warum ein Schuldenausgleich in einer Beziehung nicht sinnvoll ist und warum Du immer darauf achten solltest, Deinem Partner oder Freund nicht exakt das selbe Geschenk zu machen, wie Du es von ihm oder ihr erhalten hast.

Shawn Vulliez from SRSLY Wrong joins me to discuss the new collection of David Graeber essays, The Ultimate Hidden Truth of the World. Shawn and I talk about the tyranny of economics and how Graeber gave us permission to reveal that the emperor of economics has no clothes.Warning: Contains discussion of the recent election. Stay away if you just can't handle it anymore. I understand.

Can't be bothered with email or speak pipe? Text us!Jason is dying of a cold. Inger is surrounded by an ocean of redundancies at ANU. Anyone would think winter was coming, but no - it's the start of Spring (at least here in the Southern Hemisphere).After a bit of mutual whingeing on the State of The World, the team zip through the mail bag. We answer a few burning questions about AI from listeners. There's also wise words from listeners on how to use MS Word properly to do cross referencing and such. All good stuff. Thank you for making us smarter everyone!In the work problems segment, Inger tells Jason all about her theory of why LLMs and AI are not going to take our jobs. Something, something Capitalism doesn't want us to have no money, something. To support her theory, she leans heavily on David Graeber's excellent book 'Bullshit Jobs' and of course, our friend ChattieG.No time for what we are reading (again!) but Jason does drop the knowledge on 'OmniBuJo' and how to create custom perspectives that act like Bullet Journal spreads. Mostly though, we are just pleased we got through this episode with Jason fully coughing up a lung.

Send us a textlove doves and attention argonauts, Currency is electricity. We are electro-chemical miracle machines. Our bodies are vehicles for consciousness, and consciousness thrives in the ideational sphere. It's my humble opinion that good things emerge when we embrace a vibrant biodiversity of thoughts and ideas. Something I've learned: you don't have to *agree* in order to be a good Listener. It's the Art of Listening itself that is so transformational. Even listening to and sitting with ideas that don't resonate can shake loose all kinds of innovative thought processes. And the more we evolve in our thinking, the fuller and richer our understanding of existence can become. Let's get better at everything and make the world a better and more fun place to be.

How can we achieve total systemic change? And are there politicians anywhere who are ready to make it happen (in a way that supports the continuation of complex life on this planet, not the scorched-earth destruction of the right)?The short answer is that yes, there are people deeply embedded in politics who know how dire things are and that we need urgent change. One of these is Natale Bennett, former Green Party leader and now Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle, one of two Green Party members of the UK's House of Lords. She is also the author of the book Change Everything: How We Can Rethink, Repair and Rebuild Society, which was published by UnBound in 2024.Her thesis is that what has been called political common sense over recent decades—that greed is good, inequality doesn't matter and we can keep treating the planet as a mine and a dumping ground—has been a recipe for disaster. The ideology of neoliberalism has delivered poverty and destruction, with a few benefiting while the rest of us pay. We need urgent change - and we have the routes to do it.  Many ideas and arguments in this book have been inspired by the people she has met around the UK. Every idea in it has been road-tested, honed by interaction. We can only get through this dangerous stage  by relying on the collective ingenuity, talents and creativity of millions of people, all empowered to “do politics”. This book aims to synthesise the voices Natalie has heard and read –and encourage them to step forward. They collectively represent true common sense.That's why she chose to publish it with Unbound using crowdfunding. You can order it through them, or it should be in your local bookstore.

Is the arrow of history one of progress, where things just keep getting more bureaucratic and more complex, or is there another story that we could tell about the past? This week we're cracking open David Graeber and David Wengrow's Dawn of Everything, which argues that the arrow of progress is flat out WRONG. Instead of there being a single story of history that requires us to live these enfeebled, isolated, matrixy lives, there is a whole world of possibility out there for what a society *could* look like, but they've been keeping it from you! Or have they? We enter into this exploration with some skepticism (at least Nastia does), because it's possible that there are other competing systems that litter history, but surely there's something meaningful about the fact that they've all been subsumed into the monetized beast that is the modern capitalist technotopia (or dystopia, the designation of which is inversely dependent on how much paid vacation leave you get and directly dependent to how much time you spend deboning chickens on the Perdue production line). Whatever the case may be, we are listening, Davids - because any change starts with an idea, and this book is full of ‘em.

Former veterinary surgeon turned author, columnist and podcaster Manda Scott explores the need for new narratives that challenge existing economic, cultural and environmental paradigms perpetuating scarcity and powerlessness. Manda critiques current economic systems and advocates for serotonin-driven behaviours over dopamine-centric lifestyles, emphasising transformative corporate governance models and changes in media. Through a thrutopian lens, Manda promotes value-based systems prioritising stakeholder representation and environmental sustainability. Calling for a shift from  trauma-driven frameworks to an initiation culture that focuses on healing and connection, Manda urges us to consider the long-term impact of our actions for future generations and to reconnect to the web of life.   KEY TAKEAWAY ‘If we begin to evolve the serotonin mesh of connection to other people, to ourselves first of all, create that sense of connectedness inside, connection to other people, communities of place, purpose and passion, and connect to the web of life, the more than human world, then I can ask for help, and that help will be given.'   BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS* Any Human Power by Manda Scott - https://amzn.eu/d/gsRGYkF Civilised to Death by Christopher Ryan - https://amzn.eu/d/aPDMfAi The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber and David Wengrow - https://amzn.eu/d/iLtIyjQ   ABOUT MANDA In 2016, Manda read for a Masters in Regenerative Economics from Schumacher College, which led her to co-create the Accidental Gods membership programme and podcast, each of which aims to facilitate emergence into a new, regenerative system we'd be proud to leave to the generations that come after us. Her latest novel, Any Human Power, described by Lee Child as 'Instantly immersive and compelling, rich and strange, human and humane', weaves currents of shamanic mythology similar to those in the Boudica series through a ‘Thrutopian' thriller of political upheaval and transformative change. She lives in the edge place between England and Wales with her wife and assorted animals.    Image credit Faith Tilleray    CONNECT WITH MANDA LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/mandascottauthor/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MandaScottAuthor Twitter https://twitter.com/MandaScott Mastodon https://mastodon.scot/@Eceni BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/mandascott.bsky.social YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@AccidentalGods     ABOUT AMY Amy is a Life Purpose Coach, Podcast Strategist, Global Podcaster, Speaker and Mastermind Host.

This is the sixth installment of the Fruitless Bookclub, a show-within-a-show, featuring Chris Barker and Jake the Lawyer, where we read all those nonfiction books we've been meaning to read. Today's episode is about ...And Forgive Them Their Debts: Lending, Foreclosure, and Redemption From Bronze Age Finance to the Jubilee Year by Michael Hudson. We're talking debt forgiveness! We're talking bronze age names that we can't pronounce! And we're talking about how a lot of modern political and religious concepts originate in bronze age practices that are now uniformly rejected by our institutions and their weird Austrian economists. Come join us as we learn how the Biblical calls for debt forgiveness were, in fact, very literal.Become a Fruitless Patron here: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=11922141Check out Fruitless on YouTubeFind more of Josiah's work here: https://linktr.ee/josiahwsuttonFollow Josiah on Twitter @josiahwsuttonMusic & Audio creditsYesterday – bloom.Violence - Parquet Courts ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
