We Need To Talk About The Inconvenient Truth About the Green New Deal. Original Show Notes From 2018: Wow! What a year! This will be the final episode of The Brian Nichols Show for 2018! But don't you worry, I have a special episode in store for you next week from my appearance on a different podcast... a podcast hosted by a dear friend of The Brian Nichols Show. To wrap up the 2018 season of The Brian Nichols Show, I am joined by Max Gulker from the American Institute for Economic Research! Max is an economist over AIER and has holds a PhD in economics from Stanford University and a BA in economics from the University of Michigan. Prior to AIER, Max spent time in the private sector, consulting with large technology and financial firms on antitrust and other litigation. Max joins The Brian Nichols Show to discuss one of his latest pieces from AIER- "The Inconvenient Truth About the Green New Deal". With the rise of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her promoting of the "Green New Deal", Max took an economist's look at the topic to see the true economic consequences of passing a "Green New Deal" versus letting the market decide what the best solution would be. We also take some time to discuss Max's background, as he came to libertarianism from the left-side of the political isle. With that, I hope you enjoy this week's episode! It has been an absolute pleasure sharing these 50 episodes with you during 2018. I cannot wait to kick things off strong in 2019! Have a safe and happy holiday with you friends, family, and loved ones. Max's Bio: Max Gulker is an economist and writer who joined AIER in 2015.

Steven D. Grumbine was a conservative Republican who revered Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and George W. Bush. He was raised with the social belief that no one was deserving of a handout, that everyone must pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Steve’s mother and father had both finished their careers at Ma Bell, and Steve was on track to do the same, working with the company for 17 years. While working at Ma Bell, Steve continued his professional education, attaining master’s degrees in Technology Management (2007) and Business Administration (2008). In 2009, despite his many years within the company, Steve was laid off due to the global financial crisis. Steve, with all his advanced professional education and experience, found himself unemployed for 18 months, and no amount of bootstrap pulling could lift him out. He experienced firsthand the struggles of no longer having secure employment with benefits, while at the same time dealing with a costly divorce, massive child support, and lapsing ability to make mortgage payments. During this period of instability, Steve was introduced to Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), a new perspective that disabused him of the macroeconomic myths taught in his post-grad MBA program. He learned taxes do not fund spending at the federal level and the federal government can create as much currency as it needs up to the nation’s full productive capacity, which showed him how our government’s tolerance of unemployment was a national disgrace. Steve also learned why shameful austerity measures were allowed to continue: entrenched politicians in Congress controlled by big industry donors spreading macroeconomic lies and a public so brainwashed by those lies that they turn on one another instead of demanding more from their government.

Steve Grumbine is one of the world's most effective public educators on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). MMT, which suggests that deficit spending (private sector surplus) is actually a good thing, dramatically redefines our understanding of how the U.S. government can address issues like climate change, infrastructure, healthcare, and homelessness. Steve is the founder of the Real Progressives Network and hosts the Macro N' Cheese podcast. —

"You can't rely on markets to deliver justice. The market is not necessarily going to give us a socially acceptable outcome, so it has to be political intervention." - Paul Krugman, 2008 Nobel laureate in economic sciences.A gap of 26 percentile points, and widening. That is what defines the difference in employment outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Addressing this issue, which ought to be impermissible in the first place, is not a dilemma, but an imperative.The Prime Minister stated in his 2020 Closing the Gap report that Indigenous Australians' right to take responsibility must be restored, and that things must change. But exactly what needs to change?On this episode of Time to Listen, we are joined once again by the Cape York Institute's Head of Policy, Prue Briggs. On a previous episode, Prue introduced CYI's initiative regarding full employment in Cape York communities. This week, we take a deeper dive.Prue explains how Australia needs to re-embrace its previous economic disposition of full employment, fitting its core tenets with the needs of modern Indigenous Australian society. We address the criticisms of full employment, as well as the employment-related criticisms that Indigenous Australians receive themselves. Prue outlines how such a policy can be designed fit for the needs of Cape York, and appropriately implemented in consultation with Indigenous communities. She also explains the shift in socioeconomic outcomes that we are likely to witness as a result of such fundamental and radical reform, and exactly how quickly we can expect to see this change.Thank you for taking the time to listen.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To find out more about CYI's proposal for a Jobs Guarantee: https://capeyorkpartnership.org.au/media-articles/australian-job-guarantee/https://www.theaustralian.com.au/inquirer/the-case-for-a-government-jobs-guarantee/news-story/dee6e9545cd5af967c853e2f0481b02dTo find out more about Modern Monetary Theory:http://bilbo.economicoutlook.net/blog/Statistics mentioned in this episode:Gap in employment rates between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians: https://www.aihw.gov.au/reports/australias-welfare/indigenous-employmentIncome inequality in Australia: https://newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/social-affairs/income-and-wealth-inequality-australia-was-rising-covid-19Long-term unemployment: https://www.rba.gov.au/publications/bulletin/2020/dec/pdf/long-term-unemployment-in-australia.pdfBudget overview and fiscal commitment to Indigenous Affairs: https://budget.gov.au/2021-22/content/download/glossy_overview.pdfHistory of unemployment and inflation in Australia:https://tradingeconomics.com/australia/unemployment-ratehttp://library.bsl.org.au/jspui/bitstream/1/160/1/research%20discussion%20paper%209215.pdfhttps://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/research/70-years-inflation-australiaHistory of unemployment and inflation in the U.S:https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/unemployment-ratehttps://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/inflation-cpiSources of audio snippets:Paul Krugman: Paul Krugman - Inequality, Our Divided Societyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQcrDNPlqfsMartin Luther King: MLK Talks 'New Phase' Of Civil Rights Struggle, 11 Months Before His Assassination | NBC Newshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xsbt3a7K-8Scott Morrison:PM pushes for Indigenous-led refresh after releasing 12th Closing the Gap report | ABC Newshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Support the show (https://capeyorkpartnership.org.au/donate/)

In this episode, Charleston DSA Ecosocialist Working Group Co-Chair Taylor Allred reads an adapted version of a speech he delivered at recent SC Sunrise Movement rallies in support of the congressional federal jobs guarantee pledge started by Rep. Ayanna Presley. Taylor discusses why capitalism is inherently unsustainable, why a federal jobs guarantee would fundamentally shift power to workers, and how you can help us get this and other transformative reforms passed by phonebanking for the PRO Act to strengthen protections for organized labor-- the greatest power held by the working class.

After over a year of the pandemic and its resulting economic ruin, and as politicians now debate when to kick people off unemployment, isn't it time to revisit the idea of full employment? This week on the Heartland Labor Forum, we'll air a forum on labor and a jobs guarantee and hear how the promise […] The post The Jobs Guarantee: Is Full Employment Possible? appeared first on KKFI.

"We've constructed a policy reform agenda for our own children. The people who [our policy agenda] concerns are our own relatives ... the people who we love in the world."That's one of the strengths of the Cape York Institute; it's an institute that is driven for our people."In this episode of Time to Listen, we are joined by Noel Pearson, whose voice is widely recognised and sought after in Indigenous Affairs.Noel has founded many organisations focused on the empowerment of Indigenous Australians, notably the Cape York Institute for Policy and Leadership (CYI). We use our time with him to discuss his initial aspirations for CYI, and the role it plays in modern Australian society.Noel also addresses the topic of consultation with Indigenous communities, and why this value is paramount for CYI's operations. We conclude this discussion by opening the space to Noel's policy opinion on a national Jobs Guarantee, and why he believes this to be the priority solution to the socioeconomic woes that have tormented Cape York for generations.In Noel's answers, he elucidates upon the modern history of Cape York and uses this to outline why he believes the entrenchment of passive welfare reliance to be such a destructive function within First Nations communities.

On this episode Mark talks with economist Pavlina Tcherneva about a policy proposal that's bubbling under in the US policy debate: the creation of a federal jobs guarantee. Pavlina is an Assistant Professor of Economics at Bard College and author of 'The Case for a Job Guarantee.' As Pavlina describes it, a federal jobs guarantee isn't just a good idea; in the face of our economic, environmental, and epidemiological crises, it may be a necessary one.

How would a guaranteed income of $1,000 sound? Or what about a guaranteed job with a living wage and bargaining power? In this episode we debate two options, a universal basic income versus a federal jobs guarantee, that would provide provide relief to millions of struggling Americans. While we are in the middle of not only a pandemic but an economic and financial crisis now more than ever Americans are hurting. By the end of December, 19 million Americans will be evicted in the middle of winter. Millions of Americans are out of work. We both chose our side, now it is up to you to decide which you believe would help us reach a more equitable economy and society.  --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/inthemoodeforrealhistory/support

As the economic fall out of covid-19 starts to bite, attention is turning to how the state can support everyone - especially if the pandemic turns into a depression. Universal basic income, and a jobs guarantee are two of the potential mechanisms a country could deploy, both with different effects on people's health and wellbeing. In this podcast, Martin Hensher, associate professor of health system financing and organisation at Deakin university in Australia, and author of the new analysis "Covid-19, unemployment, and health: time for deeper solutions?" joins us to get you up to speed on the economic thought behind these two schemes.

Until the 1970's no government would permit the unemployment rate to exceed 2%. This statement is usually met with disbelief but it's true. The unemployment rate announced today has unexpectedly dropped from 7.5% to 6.8%. This seems like good news but a closer look shows that the drop is likely due to an increase in gig employment, which is basically a form of self employment, insecure, poorly paid and open to sham contracting and abuse. There was a time when a government would do everything it could to stop the unemployment rate from going above 2%. LIFE are one group which is calling for an end to mutual obligations, which is the requirement to undertake an activity, usually look for work, when in receipt of a Centrelink payment. Coinciding with the drop in payment rates at the end of September 2020 is the return of greater mutual obligation activities. Often the problem isn't that there isn't enough of something, it's that access to it is governed by the market rather than planning for need says Janet Burstall of "Living Incomes For Everyone". She was talking about housing but it applies to jobs too. There is lots of work to be done. The shortage is in paid jobs. This episode from our archives, a speaker at a 2015 Politics in the Pub event "Your Rights 2 Work". Dr Victor Quirk from the Centre of Full Employment and Equity (CofFEE) once worked for the Commonwealth Employment Service and for the privatised version, the Job Network. He is now an academic at CofFEE at the University of Newcastle. His history of employment policies in Australia is fascinating and raises the question - why don't we have a lower unemployment rate? "Unemployment is not a mere blemish in a private enterprise economy. On the contrary, it is part of the essential mechanism of the system and has a definite function to fulfil. The first function of unemployment (which has always existed in open or disguised form) is that it maintains the authority of master over man. The master has normally been in a position to say: 'If you do not want the job, there are plenty of others who do." When a man can say, "If you do not want to employ me, there are plenty of others who will,' the situation is dramatically altered."

On this edition of Parallax Views, Georgia is faced with an unusual electoral situation following the resignation of Senator Johnny Isakson's 2019 resignation.  Since that time Kelly Loeffler has acted as Isakson's replacement until a November 3rd, 2020 special election, or "jungle primary", which will decide who gets Isakson's Senate seat. One of those candidates is Hegelian philosophy scholar and prolific author Prof. Richard Dien Winfield. Winfield previously made a foray into politics in 2018 when he made an attempt to run as a U.S. Representative for Georgia's 10th congressional district. During that time Winfield became known for being the one candidate pushing for a Federal Jobs Guarantee. He joins us on this edition of the program to discuss his run for Senate as well as to outline his ideas about freedom, the social bill of rights, and why we need a federal jobs guarantee as outlined in his tremendous new book Democracy Unchained: How We Should Fulfill Our Social Rights and Save Self-Government. Among the topics discussed: - Environmental crises facing America including the current wildfires; personal health and environmental health as a right that must be ensured not only for ourselves but also future generations; dealing with climate change and the Green New Deal - The question of Reparations for descendants of slavery and victims of Jim Crow; Winfield's unique answer to the question of Reparations may surprise you -  A lengthy discussion on Winfield's federal jobs guarantee platform; why does he believe it is so necessary? - Running for Senate in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic - The issue of public education; the right to an education - The influence of philosophy and the idea of W.F. Hegel on Winfield's thought - Wealth inequality and income inequality; a fair minimum wage; taxation and fair taxation - Winfield's criticisms of Universal Basic Income (UBI) This Episode Brought to You By:The War State:The Cold War Origins of the Military-Industrial Complex and the Power Elite, 1945-1963byMichael SwansonofThe Wall Street Window

The PPP was a vital injection of money for small businesses. One of the main tenants of Modern Monetary Theory is a Jobs Guarantee, where anyone who wants a job can get one by going to the government and asking for one. But can we combine the PPP with a jobs guarantee and make it where private companies will do the job? Listen in as Adam and Naresh dive into the possibility.

In this episode, the Crowdsourced Politics podcast crew discusses the ideas behind a federal jobs guarantee, what it is, and why it's important to talk about today.

There's a lot of stimulus that's been going around the country recently, and is leading to many conversations about potentially offering a Universarl Basic Income or even a Jobs Guarantee (that is a key part of the MMT philosophy). Adam and Naresh discuss these potential solutions and debate their potential efficacy. Website: www.WorkFromHomeShow.com Featured Photo by Free To Use Sounds on Unsplash

In this episode of Living The Dream Dave (@withsobersenses) talks with Anna Sturman (@anna_sturman) author of ‘Climate Emergency’, COVID-19 and the Australian capitalist state .

Hello! What if government promised a job to anyone who needed one at any time? That’s the principle behind an idea gaining traction in the US: the universal jobs guarantee. Economic historian Lord Robert Skidelsky explains how governments have approached full employment in the past and why a jobs guarantee is now the best way to achieve it. Then US expert Pavlina Tcherneva talks about how the policy could work in practice.ANDWe talk to period poverty activist Amika George. Amika tells us about setting up the Free Periods campaign, how they achieved a shift in government policy, and where it goes next. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Today we talked about Clay Aiken's meltdown in front of a crowd of thousands at Politicon this weekend. The Immaturity, oh the immaturity. We also spent a lot of time discussing Bernie Sanders' plan for a Universal Jobs Guarantee. It reminded us of this story from the great Economist Milton Friedman. Economist Milton Friedman was once traveling overseas and spotted a construction site in which the workers were using shovels instead of more modern equipment like bulldozers. When his host responded that the goal was to increase the number of jobs in the construction industry, Friedman replied, “Then instead of shovels, why don’t you give them spoons and create even more jobs?” Friedman hit the nail on the head. If your goal is more jobs in America, why not just get rid of all the tractors, combines, planters, and automobiles? Everyone will be guaranteed to have a job. Of course, that would be a terrible idea. The goal would be for those jobs to add value in society. The problem with added Federal jobs is that the money to pay those positions must first be taken from productive sides of the economy. Thus, the job you "create" using tax money must add more value than the productive use that money would have had in the hands of it's original owner.

Under a Federal Jobs Guarantee, rather than distributing unemployment checks, the government would give a living-wage job to everyone that needs one. It’s a concept that’s been gaining popularity recently, and it’s often pitted against universal basic income. For the second episode in this two-part series exploring both ideas, expert Pavlina Tcherneva and Representative Ro Khanna join Nick and Paul to make the case for a Job Guarantee.  Pavlina Tcherneva is an Associate Professor of Economics at Bard College and a Research Scholar at the Levy Economics Institute. Her research on the job guarantee has informed the proposals of several members of congress, and she has collaborated with governments around the world on designing and evaluating employment programs.  Twitter: @ptcherneva Ro Khanna is the U.S. Representative from California’s 17th congressional district. He sits on the House Budget, Armed Services, and Oversight and Reform committees and is first vice chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

On this episode I did some superficial research on the federal jobs guarantee part of the Green New Deal being pushed by Bernie Sanders and compared it to the UBI being proposed by Andrew Yang.  This is a visceral reaction and opinion on this.  I invite people to send videos of their opinions and I will make a video with them later.  So reach out to continue the discussion.  r/mindfulskeptics Twitter: https://twitter.com/MindfulSkeptics Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindfulskepticpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MindfulSkepticsPodcast iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/mindful-skeptics-podcast/id1438359423?mt=2 Website: http://mindfulskeptics.libsyn.com Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/mindfulskepticspodcast IGTV: Stupid Trump Tweets https://www.instagram.com/stupidtrumptweets/channel #tuckfrump #podcast #politics #democrats #progressives #Yang2020 #YangGang #YangGang2020 #yanggang2020

Transcript of the Podcast Episode Welcome to Jonathan's Verdicts. I'm Jonathan Simeone. The title for this episode is: A Jobs Guarantee Makes Sense. The verdict for this episode is: guaranteeing every American who wants a job a job isn't radical. Some of the benefits of everyone who wants a job having one include: Fewer people getting government benefitsGovernment collecting more taxesMore projects getting doneMore Americans having the dignity that comes with work There are two factors that must also be considered: There are currently about seven million jobs in the American workforce that employers want filled that aren't filled.Only about 75 percent of the working-age population is working. So, we have millions of jobs unfilled. We have a crumbling infrastructure. Large areas lack broadband. Millions of Americans aren't working. Given those realities and the benefits that would come from a guaranteed jobs plan, how can you intelligently argue against a guaranteed jobs plan? During the Great Depression, President Roosevelt introduced a host of jobs programs. Those programs created new roads and parks, brought electricity to millions and did much to modernize America. All of that while providing millions of Americans decent jobs. After the Great Depression, the will for government-provided jobs through projects that invest in America disappeared. Over time, our infrastructure began crumbling, areas of our country fell further behind, and good working-class jobs became much harder to find. If America adopted a guaranteed jobs plan that promised a living wage and union protection, millions of working-class people would find the kind of work they want, our communities would revitalize and modernize, fewer people would need benefits, and America would be a much better place to live. Oh yeah, millions of Americans would choose these good government jobs over the low-wage, little to no benefit jobs offered by corporations. Oops, I think I answered my question. The idea of a guaranteed jobs plan is regularly criticized because corporations want to continue exploiting American workers. Thank you for listening to this episode of Jonathan's Verdicts. I appreciate your support.

Wow! What a year! This will be the final episode of The Brian Nichols Show for 2018! But don't you worry, I have a special episode in store for you next week from my appearance on a different podcast... a podcast hosted by a dear friend of The Brian Nichols Show. To wrap up the 2018 season of The Brian Nichols Show, I am joined by Max Gulker from the American Institute for Economic Research! Max is an economist over AIER and has holds a PhD in economics from Stanford University and a BA in economics from the University of Michigan. Prior to AIER, Max spent time in the private sector, consulting with large technology and financial firms on antitrust and other litigation. Max joins The Brian Nichols Show to discuss one of his latest pieces from AIER- "The Inconvenient Truth About the Green New Deal". With the rise of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her promoting of the "Green New Deal", Max took an economist's look at the topic to see the true economic consequences of passing a "Green New Deal" versus letting the market decide what the best solution would be. We also take some time to discuss Max's background, as he came to libertarianism from the left-side of the political isle. With that, I hope you enjoy this week's episode! It has been an absolute pleasure sharing these 50 episodes with you during 2018. I cannot wait to kick things off strong in 2019! Have a safe and happy holiday with you friends, family, and loved ones. Max's Bio: Max Gulker is an economist and writer who joined AIER in 2015.

Have Democratic socialists finally cracked the code and figured out we can all live forever care-free on the backs of the billionaires? Are Democrats going to kill good criminal justice reform to not make Trump look reasonable? Do failed states offer billions in subsidies to Amazon solely for the photo op while eliminating other home grown businesses? American for Tax Reform President, Grover Norquist joins Dan and Amy to discuss.

In this episode Dave(@withsobersenses) chats again with Michael. We talk about a recent article he wrote on Universal Basic Income and the debates it sparked with proponents of a Jobs Guarantee, his attendance at and thoughts on Tim Soutphommasane’s recent Whitlam Institute speech on combating racism, and Michael’s participation in recent struggles for increased Public Housing.   Stuff we mention includes:  Michael Thorn – Is There Room for Universal Basic Income in Australia  Tim Soutphommasane - Confronting the Return of Race Politics  The Australian Unemployed Workers’ Union

Josh Hendrickson is an associate professor of economics at the University of Mississippi, where he specializes in monetary economics. He also writes for his blog, The Everyday Economist. Josh is a returning guest to the show, and he joins today to talk about his new paper, *Monetary Policy as a Jobs Guarantee*. David and Josh discuss how monetary policy can be better outsourced to the market as well as the Fed’s past mistakes, and what it can do to improve in the future.

Basic income and jobs guarantee are often juxtaposed as two policies that are mutually exclusive, politically or policy-wise. Alyssa Battistoni, writing for In These Times, suggests that both are worth fighting for, and that the two policies could work in concert. Battistoni, a PhD student at Yale in Political Theory and editorial board member of Jacobin, spoke with Jim on how these two policies might work together.

Jim continues the discussion started on the Intelligence Squared debate over basic income with Jared Bernstein, who argued against the basic income. Bernstein explains various concerns he has with the concept, focusing on existing social programs, and a similarly radical proposal: a jobs guarantee. Bernstein is a Senior Fellow at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities and served as Chief Economist and Economic Adviser to Vice President Joseph Biden from 2009-2011.

The panel dives into the Jobs Guarantee vs. Universal Basic Income debate, Nathan pitches randomized college admissions, and everyone shares their worst past belief. The Panel: Briahna Joy Gray, contributing editor Oren Nimni, legal editor Lyta Gold, amusements editor Nathan J. Robinson, editor-in-chief Pete Davis, host Further reading on the UBI: Matt Bruenig on a social wealth fund and why a UBI already exists for the rich; James Surowiecki's case for free money; Dylan Matthews' critique of UBI critiques. Further reading on the Jobs Guarantee: Jeff Spross' case for a federal jobs guarantee; Jacobin's case; Jefferson Cowie on the history of the jobs guarantee; Atossa Araxia Abrahamian on Modern Monetary Theory; Zach Carter's profile of Modern Monetary Theorist Stephanie Kelton. Further reading contrasting UBI and Job's Guarantee: Jeff Spross on why not both?; Jonathan Malesic case against the dignity of work; Shannon Ikebe's case against the wrong kind of UBI; Alyssa Battistoni on the false promise of basic income. Further reading on the case for randomized college admissions: Nathan's article; Freddie DeBoer's defense of the SAT; Barry Schwartz on admissions lotteries. Here's a Voxsplainer on the Joy Reid controversy. A small correction from the episode: Paul Goodman did not say the youth of Kansas should build a mountain; David Riesman said that and Paul Goodman said it was ridiculous. The correct quote is: "When in our country David Riesman urges the youth of Kansas to build a mountain so that they can have manly work and enjoy skiing, one does not know whether to cry or laugh or cheer."

During the Great Depression, the government created thousands of jobs for the unemployed. That would never work today.

We have Matt Krisiloff of YC Research to talk about the Basic Income project, Y Combinator's United Slate (which featured LVT as a plank). Should these be viewed as separate, or two ideas that are fundamentally linked? Also a conversation with Kedar about the technical and moral merits of a UBI versus a Jobs Guarantee.

In this episode of Living the Dream Jon (@jonpiccini)  and Dave (@withsobersenses) talk with all-round good egg Troy Henderson (@TroyCHenderson) about the idea of a Universal Basic Income.  Troy provides us with an intellectual history and we discuss if it is a techbro attempt to sure up capitalism, a radical social democratic attempt to fix capitalism or if it contains radical elements that point in an anti-capitalist direction? We also talk about why a Jobs Guarantee is horrid and shit.   Some stuff we may have mentioned or should have: Helen Razer UBI is just a bedtime story Elon Musk tells himself to help the super-wealthy sleep Bill Mitchell A basic income guarantee is a neo-liberal strategy for serfdom without the work Nick Srnicek and Alex Williams  Inventing the Future Postcapitalism and a World Without Work Antonio Negri  Benoît Hamon and Universal Income Immaterial Workers of the World (Paolo Virno) What Did I Tell You? Andrew Leigh Why a universal basic income is a terrible idea Chapo Trap House  Episode 123 - UBIsoft feat. Clio Chang (7/10/17) Music includes Soft Pink Things and The Business both covering CRASS
