These are two snippets from a full episode which is currently up on our patreon in which Breht dialectically inverts core aspects of liberal philosophy (i.e. freedom and democracy) from a Marxist perspective, and then explains how the contradiction between the relations and forces of production under capitalism create an untenable and abjectly immoral situation wherein profit maximization for a few is always and everywhere prioritized over the wellbeing and flourshing of the vast majority.

My guest today is Andrew Milgram. Andrew is the founder of Marblegate Asset Management, an alternative investment firm that invests in credit opportunities and special situations. He joins me to discuss his unique approach to distressed investing in the middle market, revealing how middle market EBITDA has declined 20-25% since 2019, creating what he calls the "K-shaped economy." His investment stories are legendary, particularly his $600+ million bet on NYC taxi medallions, which we go into in great detail. We discuss Marblegate's approach to negotiation, sourcing deals directly from hundreds of regional banks, and understanding the human element in distressed situations.

Charles Derber, a sociology professor at Boston College, talks with Steve about his book, 'Bonfire: American Sociocide, Broken Relations and the Quest for Democracy.' Steve suggests the book aligns with his own assessment that US sociocide (social disintegration) demands revolutionary change. Electoral politics are a distraction and a dead end.The conversation covers the need for a deeper understanding of a system that manufactures and perpetuates inequality. They discuss the historical continuity of fascism as the logical endpoint of capitalism. Indeed, Trump's presidency has exposed the latent fascist character of the US state, stripping away liberal democratic pretenses. Austerity measures and increased ICE (and police) funding serve to suppress resistance and criminalize poverty.Steve emphasizes the need for organizing alternative institutions, building dual power. Charles hopes his book will help connect personal experiences with broader systemic issues, advocating for a collective response to the socio-economic crisis and reinforcing the necessity of long-term, sustainable organizing outside traditional party politics.Charles Derber, Professor of Sociology at Boston College, is the author of twenty-eight books, including the Wilding of America, The. Pursuit of Attention, Sociopathic Society, Corporation Nation, People Before Profit, Dying for Capitalism, Greed to Green, Welcome to the Revolution, and Who Owns Democracy - translated into 14 languages. He is a public sociologist and life-long activist, who writes about structural and cultural analysis of capitalism, public goods, the environment, and social movements seeking transformational change. He is a life-long activist for peace and social justice.
In this live community-driven session, Drew and Mason take the reins as they dive headfirst into one of the hottest topics out there: income tax, wealth distribution, and the question that never fails to heat up the comments section—are the rich really paying their fair share? Pulling insights from Tom's recent deep dive, the hosts break down the complexities of “trickle down” economics, dissect why income and wealth are taxed differently, and debate whether things like a flat tax could solve more problems than it creates. We hear sharp arguments from the community, honest takes on how globalization and corporate decisions affect the middle class, and practical advice for anyone trying to break out of financial struggle. But Impact Theory wouldn't be complete without a look at the personal side. Drew addresses wage stagnation, corporate profits, the realities of investing for everyday people (even if it's just $10 a month), and what it really takes to move up when you're stuck working multiple jobs and barely making ends meet. Plus, there's a candid exploration of dating and gender dynamics in today's world—what's broken, what's changed, and what it actually takes to thrive.

Capitalism is driving us to disaster. Our planet is heading for a terrifying environmental cataclysm – and our economic system is responsible. The defining characteristic of capitalism is perpetual economic growth. And while it has brought us wonderful benefits, including improved health, wealth and opportunities to travel and experience the world, ever-increasing production and consumption – inherent in capitalism – are an existential threat to life on our planet. The more we produce and consume, the more energy we need – and renewables can't keep pace. Unless we abandon capitalism now, we will inevitably continue to drive up the demand for fossil fuels. According to some scientific predictions, human civilisation could completely collapse by 2050 if we don't take drastic action to stop climate change now. We must end capitalism before it's too late. That's the view of the anti-capitalist eco-warriors. But while it's undeniable that capitalism has contributed to our current climate crisis, it has also proven to be history's most effective way of solving our problems. According to capitalism's defenders, there is almost no challenge capitalism hasn't met. It has helped defeat disease and has lifted billions out of poverty – and there's no reason why the dynamism of the marketplace can't be harnessed to bring our carbon emissions down to zero. For example, until recently solar panels were impossibly expensive; now they are cheap and helping us transition away from fossil fuels. Our system of competitive, open markets gives strong incentives for the world's brightest minds to find creative solutions to climate change. So don't listen to the doomsayers who want to rip up our economic system. Capitalism is not the problem; it's the solution. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

What if your life is a dream, and you're the one creating it? Whether you're building a business, healing your body, or simply trying to live with more love, this conversation is packed with timeless wisdom, hard-won insight, and soul. In this expansive and deeply personal episode, I sit down with Whole Foods Market Co-Founder and Conscious Capitalism pioneer John Mackey, who shares his next bold chapter: a transformational new venture called Love.Life. A 45,000-square-foot wellness center designed to help people become the healthiest version of themselves. And it happens to be 8 minutes from my new home! Am I a powerful manifestor or what!? :) Love.Life is designed to be a one-stop destination for holistic healing, integrating food, fitness, functional medicine, and leading-edge recovery modalities. John shares powerful insights on forgiveness, self-responsibility, and how tuning into your inner guidance system can shift your entire reality. From business to spirituality, leadership to relationships, John opens up about the values that shaped his journey and the inner practices that keep him aligned. He reflects on decades of experience as a mission-driven entrepreneur, the spiritual insights, and the deep importance of building a life (and a business) fueled by love. Together, we explore how to build a culture rooted in purpose and integrity, what most CEOs get wrong about leadership, and why happiness is the compass that can guide us toward our true path.

For a long time many (although by no means all) scholars saw the relationship between capitalism and democracy as mutually reinforcing: economic competition and growth were expected to sustain democratic competition and improve governance and public good delivery for citizens, in turn creating a better environment for capitalist competition to flourish. But as capitalism has changed and has in many respects freed itself from the constraints of the state and of democratic processes, it has unleashed a new era of extreme wealth accumulation, deregulated markets, weak states, unresponsive political elites, and choiceless democracies. In this episode, CEDAR host Licia Cianetti talks to Rachel Riedl about her recent essay on “Neoliberalism and the Third Wave” to better understand why and how this happened and what we can do about it. This episode is part of PPP's ongoing collaboration with the Journal of Democracy. Rachel Beatty Riedl is Professor of public policy and government at Cornell University and the Peggy J. Koenig '78 Director of the Brooks Center on Global Democracy. Her latest co-edited book is entitled Global Challenges to Democracy: Comparative Perspectives on Backsliding, Autocracy, and Resilience (CUP 2025). Licia Cianetti is Lecturer in Political Science and International Studies at the University of Birmingham and Deputy Founding Director of CEDAR. Her latest publication is “What is a “regime”? Three definitions and their implications for the future of regime studies” (Democratization, 2025). The People, Power, Politics podcast brings you the latest insights into the factors that are shaping and re-shaping our political world. It is brought to you by the Centre for Elections, Democracy, Accountability and Representation (CEDAR) based at the University of Birmingham, United Kingdom.

Democratic voters are enraged by their party's spineless “resistance” to the Trump administration's draconian agenda. But the party's dysfunction goes far deeper than just cowardly, uninspiring leaders. On this episode of Confronting Capitalism, Vivek Chibber speaks with Phillip Rocco about how the Democrats' abandonment of organized labor has resulted in a party that is ineffective at fighting the right or putting forward a compelling political vision. Read Phillip Rocco's essay here: https://catalyst-journal.com/2025/07/why-the-democrats-are-so-useless Confronting Capitalism with Vivek Chibber is produced by Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy, and published by Jacobin.

In today's show, Chris Lievense, high school social studies teacher in Vermont and Kelly Junno 3rd grade teacher in Western Massachusetts, and Spark faculty, share with us their insights from the 2025 Socialism conference in Chicago and how those lessons are applicable to their work as K-16 educators. A major theme Kelly and Chris found at the conference was, how does the progressive left recapture the narrative. Fascist can't win unless they capture education and the narratives around it that normalize injustice. How does the progressive left ask for the unimaginable. How do we ask for a better world that we don't have prisons that we don't spend billions of dollars and billions of lives to have them and instead ask for what are the kinds of care we need and what are the things that we need to meet at minimum the basic needs for people: food, clothing, shelter, health, education, transportation. How do we bring the majority of people in the United States along with the possibilities of abolition. Most Americans can't imagine an abolitionist society. How do we as educators change the conversation which then changes the narrative around this and make it imaginable? Most importantly that Capitalism can't solve capitalism
Listen to this episode for ways to save money while supporting your values! Co-hosts Tania and Adriana share what companies they boycott and why, and which alternative companies have ethical practices they support. Many of the companies on our boycott lists have documented labor rights violations or support governments rooted in white supremacy and oppressive systems. Boycotting large corporations has opened new ways for us to reconnect with our local communities such as through mutual aid. It's also a great excuse to find new small family-owned businesses to support. Boycotting is a great technique that has worked for many movements in the past, and it's a great way to hold companies accountable for their practices.Remember: the companies you choose to support should hold your values for community care and equal rights.Resources:Boycott List by BDS MovementBoycott List by Ethical ConsumerAnti-DEI Boycott ListWhy to boycott Chiquita and DoleWhy to boycott NestleAlternative Brands by Ethical Consumer15 Ethical & Sustainable Brands by Sustainably ChicBuyNothingListen to our previous episode “Activism, But Make It Fashionable” for clothing brands we don't and do supportVictory!

In this episode, Scott Becker shares two reflections on capitalism.
Listen on Apple Podcasts Listen on Spotify Dr. Phillip W. Magness is an economic historian and the David J. Theroux Chair in Political Economy at the Independent Institute. Magness' research has appeared in multiple scholarly venues, including the Economic Journal, the Journal of Political Economy, the Journal of Business Ethics, the Southern Economic Journal, and Social Science Quarterly. He is the author of several books including, most recently, The 1619 Project Myth, which is the subject of this conversation. Our conversation was wide-ranging, including an overview of the original 1619 Project of the New York Times, conceived of and edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones; how it was a departure from similar historical projects of the Times before it; the strengths of the 1619 Project; the particular shortcomings of the Project's claims about the economic consequences of slavery; the attempt by the 1619 Project to tie slavery to capitalism; the actual anti-slavery origins of capitalist theory, starting with Adam Smith; the anti-capitalism ante-bellum arguments in the philosophical defense of slavery; the flawed scholarship of the “New History of Capitalism” school; the Project's distortion of the importance of cotton to the American economy before the Civil War, and the strange rehabilitation of “King Cotton” theory; the criticisms of leading historians of the colonial and revolutionary era of Hannah-Jones's claims about the importance of slavery to support for the American Revolution in the South; the status of the “20 and odd” enslaved Blacks who were brought to Jamestown in 1619; the varied influence of the Sommersett ruling in the colonies; Lord Dunmore's famous declaration after the American Revolution had begun; Hannah-Jones's dismissive response to academic criticisms of her claims; that Hannah-Jones was correct in her assessment of Abraham Lincoln's advocacy of “colonization” as a solution to emancipation; the New York Times's strange unwillingness to correct its 1619 Project errors transparently, as it would otherwise do in other contexts; the explicit political and policy agenda behind the 1619 Project; the slow walking-back of some of the Project's most controversial claims via ghost-editing; the insertion of The 1619 Project in public school curricula; and how to develop a school history curriculum that does give a balanced treatment of the history of slavery and Reconstruction.

New Episode: Pain, Crime, Struggle, and Redemption – with Michaelangelo CasanovaIn this powerful and deeply human episode of The Rational Egoist, Michael speaks with Michaelangelo Casanova—Entrepreneur, Life Coach, and Mentor—about his extraordinary journey through the darkest corners of life and into the light of self-ownership and personal growth.Michaelangelo opens up about his past involvement in crime and the pain and struggle that shaped him, but more importantly, how he chose to rise above it.

Today we welcome Malcolm Harris back to the show. Previously he talked with us about his mammoth study, Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World. This time we are looking not at a history of Capitalism and the World, but our possible futures under the threat of catastrophic climate change. We talk about not only failed policies, but failed perspectives on society, politics, and culture, and focus on a deadly form of Value that has led us to the abyss precisely because it has emanated from a basic rift between humans and the world. It is a rift that Capital has always both fed and exploited, but will end up exhausting a finite resource—the Planet. We talk about what is needed to heal this, and what we are up against. Malcolm Harris is a freelance writer and the author of Kids These Days, Shit is Fucked Up and Bullshit, and Palo Alto. His newest book is What's Left?: Three Paths Through the Planetary Crisis.

Former Senator Phil Gramm joins to defend capitalism's record, arguing that the Industrial Revolution improved lives, the New Deal prolonged the Depression, and modern welfare undermines work. He supports Keynesian stimulus in theory—but only if governments also run surpluses, which he says they never do. Plus, Gaza aid failures, Macron's recognition of Palestine, and why peace requires clear-eyed power dynamics, not symbolic gestures. And in The Spiel: Benjamin Crump returns to the spotlight in a viral police beating case, and renewed concern over noose reports reveals our reflex to dramatize the ambiguous.

Epstein; Tariffs; GM; Fed; Energy; Sugar; Cronyism; Russia; China; Fusion; AI |The Yaron Brook Show | July 22, 2025 In this packed and provocative episode, Yaron dives into the latest headlines—from the moral rot surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and the cowardice of those in power, to the destructive resurgence of protectionism in the form of tariffs. He takes on General Motors and the growing web of corporate-state entanglement, lambasting the Federal Reserve for its continued economic manipulation. In segments on energy and sugar, Yaron exposes the deep-rooted cronyism distorting prices and crushing innovation—all while enriching the politically connected.The conversation then turns global, with sharp commentary on Russia's aggression, China's authoritarian ambitions, and the West's philosophical disarmament in the face of both. Yaron explores the promise and peril of emerging technologies—like the bold (but dubious?) claims of nuclear fusion breakthroughs, and the race to harness AI without sacrificing individual rights and human purpose. Can the West still lead? Only if it reclaims its moral and philosophical foundations.**Live Questions:**In a dynamic and wide-ranging Q&A, Yaron answers questions about the psychology behind public shaming and resentment, the loneliness epidemic, the relationship between logic and reason, and whether a love of money is virtuous. Viewers asked about favorite rockstars to resurrect (hello, Freddie Mercury), Kurosawa films, NYC boroughs, and even the ethics of eternal post-death consciousness. One question explored how proximity to people who refuse to truly *Live* can affect your own ability to thrive. As always, thoughtful, unscripted, and unapologetically rational.Key Time Stamps:05:00 Jeffrey Epstein10:15 Tariffs15:15 General Motors19:10 Federal Reserve27:00 Energy30:45 Sugar35:55 Cronyism44:20 Russia48:40 China53:40 Fusion1:03:00 AILive Questions begin at 1:08:18---
“Abolishing Silicon Valley means freeing the development of technology from a system that will always relegate it to a subordinate role, that of entrenching existing power relations. It means designing a new system that isn't deluged in the logic of the bucket. It means liberating our worlds from the illegitimate ring of capital. Perhaps this sounds unfair to capital. Perhaps I sound like I'm not grateful enough for everything that capital has given us, but we don't owe capital anything; the things we attribute to capital were built by workers.People can labor and sometimes die in a process. Their contributions are unrecognized in death as in life. So don't thank capital. It doesn't deserve our gratitude, and it doesn't need it. Thank the people who created everything that capital always takes credit for. Capital is a means of accounting for wealth ownership, not its creation. And that means it's perpetually shrouded in a fundamental untruth; we can leap the swamp of capital behind and start over with something new. “In this episode on Speaking Out of Place podcast Professor David Palumbo-Liu talks with Wendy Liu. Ever since its publication, Abolish Silicon Valley—How to Liberate Technology from Capitalism has proven to be more urgent and insightful. Today, he talks with author Wendy Liu about how developments like AI and LLM, further erosions of intellectual property, and increased invasions of privacy make the case for abolishing Silicon Valley even more important. They talk about how abolition is critical at a time when more and more the private sector has come to eviscerate the public good. Turning to the genocide in Gaza, they discuss the ways Capital has enlisted technology in deadly and horrific manners. They end with a meditation on the commons and how one can live with fewer commodities and find value in common projects to make life more valuable and worthwhile outside of the logic of the market.Wendy Liu is the author of Abolish Silicon Valley: How to Liberate Technology From Capitalism, a memoir/manifesto about the tech industry from the perspective of a former believer.

We're obsessing about teeth today (more than usual)! Hear why Susie thinks she got confirmation that wisdom teeth removal is done too frequently, and why she and Gen Z finally have something in common. We discuss the viral accusation of "Gen Z stare," and theorize why it's happening. We learn about a study done on persuasion that made a bunch of people furious on Reddit. We get an update on the Grandma Scam that Susie experienced a few years ago. We talk about "mind blanking," and find out who is more likely to go into this unconscious state, what the brain is doing when we are thoughtless, and why it happens. And let's just say we have some idea of which gender this happens to more frequently. Plus, we hear about a woman who does the work of the Tooth Fairy, and we decide the whole ritual is just a byproduct of capitalism and consumerism.13:52 - The "Gen Z Stare" is is what many people are labeling this blank look of confusion.21:33 - Could an AI chatbot change your mind?
