Join us for an enlightening discussion with Chris as we uncover the hidden complexities and unexpected realities of starting a farm business. Chris shares his unique journey, which began under the grim assumption of a limited lifespan due to health issues. This led him to neglect a detailed business plan initially, resulting in a steep learning curve. He emphasizes the crucial role of solid business foundations such as capital, labor, and clear goals, highlighting that the hands-on, visible aspects of farming are just a small fraction of what makes a farm successful. Chris candidly contrasts romanticized visions of farming with the logistical and strategic challenges faced in reality. We then shift focus to the broader challenges of being an entrepreneur, especially for those transitioning from technical roles to management positions. Chris discusses the pitfalls of such transitions, drawing parallels between middle managers and entrepreneurs overwhelmed by their new roles. Our conversation explores Blackbird and Sylvan Aquin's innovative approach to creating a sustainable business model that pays living wages by integrating agribusiness and agriculture. This approach helps offset the low margins in farming by leveraging higher-margin agribusiness activities, aiming to create a system where individuals don't have to be entrepreneurs to succeed. In the latter part of our episode, we tackle the larger socio-political implications of ethical business growth and the role of social entrepreneurship in challenging capitalism. Chris provides insights into the need for practical business acumen and realistic goals to achieve political and ethical objectives. We also discuss the importance of creating businesses that ethically redistribute wealth, building economic centers that can drive political change. Listen in as we explore the necessity of understanding business fundamentals, maintaining community accountability, and creating a culture of fairness to achieve meaningful progress and sustainable change.

James of Prolekult films, Luke of the Prolekult Podcast, and I talk about the paradoxes of British Trotskyism, the British left in general, and more. What if I told you that the history of British Trotskyism could illuminate your understanding of American leftism?

This week I spoke with Jeremy Gilbert. Jeremy is a Professor of Cultural and Political Theory at the University of East London. He is author of Twenty-First Century Socialism, and his latest book Hegemony Now: How Big Tech and Wall Street Won the World is out next year.   As a big fan of the late Mark Fisher's work, particularly his book Capitalist Realism (for which I did the audiobook recording), I was intrigued to learn that Mark and Jeremy were associates. And I felt very compelled to speak to Jeremy about his work and outlook on politics. This episode is a very down-to-earth, realistic and in-depth discussion about the work of the left wing in politics. What does the left stand for? What are they doing right now? Is it working? What needs to happen next?

Some trends, such as anti-vax, conspiracy theories and climate-change denial are considered to be right wing occupations. Our guests on this 2013 panel reveal the myth of that line of thinking. They discuss a question that couldn't be more relevant during a pandemic: are anti-science streaks a symptom of corresponding political extremism?

Many people don't really understand what is meant by "left-wing politics." In this episode we talk about what it means to be an adherent to left-wing politics. Left-wing politics is an ideology that feels good, but results in causing far more harm than good. We break down why it's harmful and why people feel obligated to accept left-wing thinking.

Institute of Historical Research Eoin O’Cearnaigh Socialist History

Generally speaking, the British left has been on the side of the disadvantaged and the oppressed. For this reason, socialists, radicals and liberals have instinctively rallied to the cause of newcomers in an increasingly multicultural society. But circumstances have changed and the waters now are muddied. This lecture will explore the reasons why it is difficult for the left today, given its origins and orientations, to deal with Muslim and Jewish difference when that difference is asserted by Jews and Muslims themselves. (This paper was given on 16 May 2013 at the German Historical Institute London as part of the European Leo Baeck Lecture Series London, 2013.)

"If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution." This paraphrase of famous Anarchist, Author Emma Goldman's retort when accused of "hurting the cause" by having too much fun effectively sums up the heart of this show. Over the years, major social and political Movements have been strengthened by music and song. Where would the Civil Rights Movement have been without "We Shall Overcome"? Where would the Anti-Vietnam war Movement have been without "Masters of War" and "Fixin' to Die Rag"? Where would the Labor Movement have been without "Solidarity Forever" or "The Internationale"? If you haven't been paying attention, the major social and political movements of today are also being supported and enhanced by great political songs. Within the constraints of overbearing, corporate "copyright" laws, each episode will examine a great left-wing protest/political song. We will trace each song's history, its impact on the time that produced it and its relevance to today. listen to other episodes as they are released at Protest Songs in Left Wing Politics -  http://septicradio.com/protestsongsleftwing.php A production of Septic Radio.
