People have always fought back against “The elite”, and until recently they were easily recognisable: rich, privileged and often born into money. Old Etonians, billionaires, oil barons, media tycoons ruled the roost, but there are claims things are changing, and the rise of a new elite is challenging the status quo. Author Matthew Goodwin calls them a group of “radical woke middle-class liberals completely out of step with the public”. University graduates working in creative industries, media and universities, who have an heavy influence over the national conversation about things like immigration, trans rights and sex education, but critics say they don't represent “ordinary folk”, and as a result communities are feeling unrepresented and left behind. So who is in charge, or is there an unlikely, and unknowing, coalition between the two – the new elite dominating social discourse and cultural discussion, whilst the traditional elite pull the strings of politics and economics? This is the next chapter of the culture wars – but while the pair of them battle it out for supremacy, much of the country struggles on day-to-day watching from the side lines. Presenter: Neil Maggs Producer: Jonathan IAnson Editor: Clare Fordham Contributors Matt Goodwin, Professor of Politics, University of Kent and author "Values, Voice and Virtue". George Monbiot, Author, journalist and environmental campaigner Dr Lisa McKenzie, research fellow, University of Durham, writer and anarchist Bob & Lee, builders Dr Rakib Ehsan, Social policy analyst and author "Beyond Grievance" Baroness Tina Stowell of Beeston Paul Embery, Firefighter, trade unionist and writer Tom, boxing club owner Aaron Bastani, Broadcaster and founder of Novara Media

What are the best theoretical frameworks for understanding class politics? Marx offers an understanding of class as tied to relations of productive labor and property ownership in capitalist society. The French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu offers an understanding of class which goes beyond Marx in many ways, offering a richer and more varied idea of class as a cultural formation that generates a field of power. Can Marx and Bourdieu be reconciled? Can they be combined? We are joined by sociologist Lisa Mckenzie to discuss the best ways to theorize class, the working class, class politics and more.

Lisa McKenzie, PhD, has a new American Cancer Society research grant to explore the relationships between oil and gas environmental exposures and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The award builds upon her preliminary studies, which suggested that children living near oil and gas wells “may be economically disadvantaged and at greater risk for childhood leukemia.” According to Dr. McKenzie—who is a Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado's School of Public Health—approximately 3 million children in the United States live within one mile of an oil and gas well. In this episode, Dr. McKenzie explains how she plans to evaluate the association between exposures from oil and gas development and childhood leukemia risk and why this work is critically needed to support state and federal policy. 4:51 – Lisa McKenzie, PhD, Clinical Assistant Professor at the University of Colorado's School of Public Health 6:11 – On fracking and how oil and gas are removed from the ground 8:38 – How tapping into unconventional resources such as shale has brought the oil and gas industry into more communities 11:12 – On concerns that communities have raised about oil and gas environmental exposures 13:49 – What we know about carcinogens associated with the oil and gas industry 15:57 – On childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) 18:19 – Why it's particularly concerning for children to be exposed to carcinogens 23:38 – Has proximity to oil and gas activity been associated with childhood ALL? 25:10 – How many children in the United States live near such activity? 26:07 – How she plans to build on her preliminary data using American Cancer Society funding 28:35 – Why she hopes her research could make a difference for parents and children 32:13 – On the state, national, and global policies for oil and gas environmental practices 34:07 – How ACS funding will allow her to continue her research 35:46 – A message she'd like to share with cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers

Today's guest is Dr Lisa Mckenzie, Assistant Professor, Ethnographer and Sociologist, currently based at Durham University who has written and spoken extensively about classism, social inequality and leftist politics. We begin the conversation talking about her roots coming from a mining town in Nottingham and the pride of her working class identity growing up, defined by values of community, family, and hard work.  We speak about our unhealthy obsession with class hierarchies in the UK, and the inherent prejudice against the working class. The recent Sewell Report, albeit heavily criticised, identified the defining roles that class and geographical inequalities play in people's life chances and we talk about the intersection of class, race, ethnicity, gender and location when it comes to discrimination and inequality in the UK. Lisa speaks about her latest kickstarter project, “Lockdown Diaries of the Working Class” which comprises a collection of diary entries from 38 working class people in the first month of lockdown. She tells us about her motivations behind spotlighting the illustrations and stories of the working class. Lisa is a vocal opponent of social mobility. I ask her why she thinks it is ineffective and whether aspiration can ever be a bad thing. Cultural Capital now forms part of Ofsted's teaching framework and requires education providers to give learners “the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life”. Given its historical association with who you know, not what you know, and having the right networks, we talk about how, in some ways, it might polarise the middle and working classes by equating self-worth with an idealised way of life.

In this episode, Lisa McKenzie shares her story from being hit with a physical crisis to realizing the spiritual gift of her body and the intelligence it allows her to access every day to tune into her intuition.   Denying her truth in every cell of her body and intellect. Denying her connection and the abilities she had pushed away as a child for fear of no one understanding or worse, dismissing her. She diminished her truth so deeply so as to not draw attention to who she really was, that it was setting her body on fire to get her attention. She saw more than 17 health professionals who could not explain what she had or how long she would have it.  After more than a year of numbing the pain and having grown exhausted from trying to find a medical explanation for this crisis, she was confined to her bed that summer for 2 unable to even turn around without the fiery pain. In those two weeks, she numbed herself with any distraction until the pain got so bad and her face was so inflamed that now, she could barely open her eyes.  THAT'S WHEN SHE SANK WITHIN and for the first time in a very long time, she listened. In Lisa's words, “I was in too much pain to worry, to plan, or to think about anything else. I just surrendered and waited for guidance. I waited, forgave myself for any expectation, and waited some more until I heard it. At that moment I promised my soul that I would no longer dismiss it in fear but would welcome my knowing with curiosity until I could feel it throughout my body. Until the knowing became my being.”  I PROMISED MY SOUL THAT I WOULD FOLLOW MY GUT, LISTEN WITH MY HEART, AND ACT ON MY INTUITION. WEEKS LATER, ALL MY SYMPTOMS WERE GONE.” Lisa is an Intuitive business, branding, and marketing mentor + strategist with 14+ years of experience guiding coaches, authors, and business owners to realize their genius and turn it into a profitable and fulfilling business. She is also an Embodied leadership coach, leading you on the journey of building your business by taking you out of your head and into your heart. Grounded in the mystic, she hosts intimate gatherings where women come together to work, play and ground themselves in their creative flow and inspired action.

The comedian Russell Kane traces his success back to the day his Dad bought his council house in Enfield in the 80s. Now, in 2019, he wrestles with the impact of the Thatcher policy which allowed that to happen – Right to Buy. Russell’s family lived in an end of terrace, which meant a bigger garden, and the potential for an extension. His Dad built pillars onto the entrance of the house and, in his most audacious of moves, hand-dug a 21-foot swimming pool. The house became known as “The Castle” to their disgruntled neighbours, and Russell started to feel different. He felt he could strive for more and he thinks it was the trigger for the events which led him to university, and beyond. In all the debate about housing and the Right to Buy policy, Russell thinks that the social impact on families like his has been forgotten. But he also feels like the drawbridge was pulled up behind him – as if his family’s luck was potentially to the detriment of others. The social housing in Enfield was depleted, and his community divided between those with the extensions and the fancy entrances, and those without. Here, he tries to reconcile his feelings about a policy which changed the lives of working class communities across Britain – for better, or for worse? Featuring the architect of Right to Buy – Lord Heseltine, sociologist Lisa McKenzie, and Russell’s mum Julie. Produced in Bristol by Polly Weston.

Today's show offers two feature interviews: New Theory of How Cancer Evolves Inside Us (start time: 0:58): It is commonly known that cancer afflicts old people more than youth. Conventional wisdom has held we get cancer with age largely because we accumulate lots of genetic mutations over many years, and it’s the mutations that cause cancer. Our guest, Dr. James DeGregori,  deputy director of the University of Colorado Cancer Center, discusses with host Susan Moran his new theory--one that challenges conventional wisdom--about why and how we get cancer. In his new book, called Adaptive Oncogenesis: A New Understanding of How Cancer Evolves Inside Us, DeGregori argues that cancer is as much a disease of evolution as it is of mutation. Mutated cells outcompete healthy ones in the ecosystem of the body’s tissues. Dr. DeGregori is a professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Studying Health Impacts of Oil&Gas Wells (start time: 12:54) Many people living all along the Front Range are familiar with the sights and smells of oil rigs operating in fields near their homes and schools.  State regulators argue  that this convergence of people and oil rigs is safe. But many nearby residents and scientists are concerned about the potential health impacts of these drilling operations so close to residential neighborhoods and schools. Our guest, Dr. Lisa McKenzie, is the lead author on a new study that adds some critical evidence to back concerns of residents.

Drilling's Health Impacts (start time: 7:50): A pressing question on the minds of many Colorado residents, health experts, and others amidst a surge of oil and gas activity is this: Does living near an oil and gas well harm your health? A scientist at the forefront of exploring such questions is Dr. Lisa McKenzie, a professor of environmental epidemiology at the Colorado School of Public Health at the University of Colorado Anschutz. She is the lead author on a recently published study that examines the potential impact of nearby oil and gas drilling on childhood cancer rates. The study's important findings were challenged by the state Health Department, whose recent assessment concludes that nearby oil and gas operations poses minimal risk to residents. Dr. McKenzie  talks with How On Earth's Susan Moran about her study, and the complex science of risk, correlation and causation.

The 'Precariat': Laurie Taylor talks to Guy Standing, Professor in Development Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. His highly influential 2011 book introduced the 'Precariat' as an emerging mass class, characterized by inequality and insecurity. Professor Standing argues that that the increasingly global nature of the Precariat is leading to the kind of social unrest which carries grave political risks. Marking the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, he takes his work a stage further, outlining A Precariat Charter which might award greater rights to this new 'class'. They're joined by Dr Lisa Mckenzie, Research Fellow in Sociology at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Also, whilst humour and laughter have been studied by social scientists, scholars who use wit, jokes and satire may get marginalised from the academy. Cate Watson, Professor in the School of Education at the University of Stirling, argues against this neglect of humour's potential. Producer: Jayne Egerton.
