Chris and Andy talk about the modern-day hype cycles around film releases and why it feels like television drops don't get that same level of attention in the wake of more ‘Heat 2' news (5:38). Then, they make the case for why ‘The Lowdown' is one of the best shows of the year and what they've been asking for from this era of auteur-driven television (27:51). Finally, they talk about Netflix's ‘House of Guinness,' from creator Steven Knight, and why, even though Knight is aiming high, the show misses the mark (43:55).

Washington's MAGA government is shoveling massive giveaways of public money to corporate elites. Worse, though, are its takeaways of people's power to battle the abuse of those same plutocratic corporations. Consider just three recent examples:Travel. Perhaps your family plans a holiday flight to visit grandma. Flying itself has become dicey, but at least the government is requiring airlines that cause long delays or cancellations to compensate us passengers for our loss. Uh… no, no more. Trump's transportation secretary (who was previously a LOBBYIST for the big airlines!) is “loosening” the rules so monopolistic airlines owe nothing to abused customers.Job opportunities. One of the nastiest wage suppression tactics of corporate bosses has been their collusion to make employees sign “noncompete” contracts. These amount to indentured servitude, preventing workers from quitting to take a better job with a competing firm. This corporate lockdown costs American workers some $40 billion a year in wages they could get in an open job market. The FTC was finally moving to ban these noncompete gimmicks – but Trump installed a corporate lackey at the FTC to snuff out this spark of workplace liberty.Pollution. Corporate lobbyists and MAGA lawmakers are rigging the rules to let industrial giants escape responsibility for their massive environmental contamination. For example, the profiteering greedheads who've deceptively caused tons of deadly “forever chemicals” to be spread on our land, water, communities, and families are to be let off the hook by the new, corporate-hugging EPA honcho. He says we taxpayers must pay for the toxic cleanup, not the polluters.If you're unclear about the meaning of “plutocracy,' there it is: Government by and for the despotic rich.Fighting plutocracy on multiple fronts is challenging work, and that's why we recommend getting involved with Public Citizen—they're strategic and have a long track record of protecting Americans on many issues.

Sometimes, cosmic oddities come together in comic ways. For example, Google positions the biography of right-wing Texas governor Greg Abbott right under the one for yesteryear's slapstick comedians, Abbott and Costello.It's almost cruel for Gov. Greg to be juxtaposed with that quick-witted duo, for he's a dour, slow-witted, plutocratic pol, with no perceptible sense of humor. As governor, he has focused on demonizing poor people, rigging elections, and doing favors for moneyed elites. Unsurprisingly, only four out of 10 Texas voters now support him. Yet – don't laugh – in a move of burlesque absurdity, Abbott now says he might choose to become president. Yes, of the US!Filled with pomposity, he recently proclaimed, “I will be guided by God.” Well, maybe so, since the god he faithfully follows is Mammon. Indeed, his major credential for becoming the GOP nominee for prez is that he is a pro at the Pay-to-Play game of using taxpayer money to entice special interests to fund his political career. “You pay me, then I pay you” is his corrupt game plan, which he has used to amass a whopping $87 million for his next election.For example, watchdog group Public Citizen has documented some $3 million that Abbott got from executives of eight corporations. In turn, those eight were given nearly a billion dollars in no-bid state contracts – a 33,000% profit on their donations to Abbott!This is Jim Hightower saying… For high rollers, Abbott is better than a winning Powerball lottery ticket. Buy him, and the Pay-to-Play merry-go-round keeps spinning at taxpayer expense.

Meet the incomparable Missy Dietz of Boyds and enjoy stories and secrets from her decades in fashion!
It's been my honor to know a few real heroes – people who've selflessly dared to fight greed and oppression to advance the common good. Diane Wilson, for example.For forty years, this fiery, fourth-generation fisherwoman from the Texas Gulf Coast has battled tenaciously for the rights and very survival of the area's hardscrabble fishing families. She and her grassroots allies have taken on Formosa Plastics, a $250 billion, global corporate beast that has routinely dumped its chemical waste around Matagorda Bay, poisoning life and livelihoods.But in 2019, in a lawsuit based on massive evidence collected by Wilson and her armada of volunteer kayakers, she won a stunning court victory, forcing the contaminator to pay $50 million for its malfeasance.Wilson's fight was not just for her, and she did not get a penny from the Formosa settlement. But she won something richer than money – “It felt like justice,” she said of the court's judgement.Importantly, the court didn't award the $50 million to some regulatory agency, but to a public trust administered by – guess who? – Wilson's allies! So she has been working tenaciously ever since to make sure the money directly benefits the poor families Formosa ran over. Especially promising is the trust's major grant to create the people's own Matagorda Bay Fishing Cooperative. It will provide dock space, supply contracts, processing ability, local jobs… and the power for local people to forge their own future.Why fight against overpowering odds for 40 years? Because of her strong principles… and sheer stubbornness. “It's my home,” Wilson says of the bay and its working-class community, “and I completely refuse to give it to that company to ruin.”Learn more about Diane and support her work:Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

This week, Andrew and Shane review the latest from director Paul Thomas Anderson 'One Battle After Another' starring Leonardo DiCaprio. They debate its Best Picture prospects, where it ranks in the PTA filmography, and where this Leo performance ranks among his career bests. Later, they turn their sights to TV as they cover the premieres for "The Lowdown" on FX/Hulu, "Slow Horses" Season 5, and "English Teacher" Season 2 before seeing how "Alien: Earth" and "Terminal List: Dark Wolf" landed their season finales.
This week, we're looking at some recent TV shows that have thematic connections if you squint hard enough - Slow Horses, The Lowdown, and Task. Plus some thoughts on Peacemaker and the newly functional DC Universe and in the Franchise Report, we take on Predator and end up joining the Bill Duke Fan Club.
Here's a progressive idea I picked up from the unlikeliest of sources: Corporate CEOs!For decades, these chieftains of our economic order have been steadily implementing a very visionary process for establishing corporate wage levels. The essence of it is this: Let the workers set their own pay! Since the 1970s, when the idea began taking hold in Corporate America, pay levels have zoomed up by more than 1,000 percent.Well… not for you. This set-your-own pay movement has only been available to top corporate executives, whose median paychecks now top $16 million a year! But since it's been a boon for this test group, I say it's time to expand the no-hassle compensation concept to all employees. This would greatly boost grassroots purchasing power, economic growth, and fairness for all.“Omigod no!” squawk corporate apologists, rushing to say that, technically, CEOs do not directly set their pay. Rather, the bosses have attached their earnings to their corporations' ever-rising stock prices. Thus, astronomical rewards go to those who obsessively focus on jacking-up the price of their own stock, even though that's a selfishly-narrow and false measure of a corporation's performance.Also, stock price is no indicator of a CEO's worthiness. Even bosses who're blockheads can still get a boost simply because they've rigged the system to hitch a free ride on inflated stock value.This is Jim Hightower saying… Still, if it's good enough for them, why not an equal deal for working stiffs, who actually deliver the products and services that give a corporation some true value. I say, each worker should get the same percentage increase in pay that the top honcho takes. It's a very simple process… and it's only fair.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

May we take a minute to talk about your death?And mine, too. I certainly don't want to rush either one, but there is a matter we should all consider ahead of the “event.” Namely, the funeral.The nature of one's bodily disposal is, of course, unpleasant to discuss. So mostly we don't. Thus, at our death, loved ones frantically try to decide between crematorium or a coffin.Both processes are awful to contemplate, are environmentally harmful, can be exorbitantly expensive, and are often emotionally unsatisfying for survivors. I can't say there's any good way to go, but is there a better way?Yes, says an interesting “green burial” movement, offering the alternative of an affordable “adios” that truly does bring life full circle. With no need for embalming, burning, or steel sarcophagus, it provides a simplicity and an organic authenticity to life's end.The essence of it is minimalism. The expired body is literally and gently covered with heated plant material for a month or so, accelerating the work of microbes and fungi to convert us into soil. Yes, in short order, we become about a cubic yard of compost – new nutrient-rich earth that family or others can even spread to foster future life.Adding to the wholistic ethic, a cottage industry makes available home-made woven baskets, linen shrouds, and other organic provisions for our dearly departed. Also, rather than wearing mournful, black clothing to the funeral plot, mourners at a green burial gather in work clothes to assist in the farewell.It's a participatory continuum, carrying life forward. Maybe it's not for you and yours – but maybe it is. To learn more, go to GreenBurialCouncil.org.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

As a recipient of the MacArthur Fellowship (also known as the MacArthur Genius Grant), you could say filmmaker Sterlin Harjo is a certified genius. He's responsible for creating the groundbreaking series “Reservation Dogs,” which follows the lives of four Indigenous teenagers in rural Oklahoma. Now, Sterlin is back with a new series called “The Lowdown,” starring Ethan Hawke as a rough-and-tumble bookstore owner and "truthstorian" in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He sat down with Tom Power during this year's Toronto International Film Festival to talk about his career — and how being a genius really just means your friends will give you a hard time about it.

Here they come again! Another far-right-wing mob, spurred on by Trump, is storming our US Capitol!Only, these are not uncouth MAGA marauders wearing buffalo horns, breaking in, and attacking Capital police. No, this is a very couth, richly-attired, well-mannered political mob laying siege on Congress. And look: Instead of fighting or fleeing, Republican lawmakers are holding the Capitol's doors wide open for this incursion! That's because this is a swarm of always-welcome corporate lobbyists and campaign funders. In particular, they're an army of global pesticide giants.Led by Bayer, the multibillion-dollar German biochemical conglomerate, they're demanding that Congress keep us commoners from interfering with their poisonous profiteering. Bayer reaps billions of dollars selling a killer pesticide named Roundup, which scientists increasingly consider a cause of cancer, especially in children. Thousands of afflicted families have filed major lawsuits holding Bayer responsible.Of course, Bayer honchos did the honorable thing. Ha! Just kidding. Instead, its lobbyists rushed to Trump and GOP congressional leaders, who – shhhh – quietly tucked a corporate “gotcha” into this month's must-pass budget bill. It would effectively hand retroactive immunity to chemical manufacturers, quashing all those lawsuits filed by families of Roundup victims. Sneaky, huh? Infuriated, grassroots leaders of MAHA (The “Make America Healthy Again” movement) say the Republican Party is being corrupted by false information from the pesticide companies.This is Jim Hightower saying… Actually, what's corrupting the Party's lawmakers is the gusher of campaign money they take from the poison pushers.
