“The Boys” on Amazon Prime is not your typical superhero show - it's gory, dark at times, and the “supes”, as they're called, aren't always the good guys. But with the real world pressures put on them - toxic masculinity, corporate greed and manipulation, racism - you start to understand how they got to be that way. Clinical psychologist Dr. Lynn Zubernis and counseling psychologist Dr. Matthew Snyder, both professors at West Chester University, co-edited a book called "Supes Ain't Always Heroes: Inside the Complex Characters and Twisted Psychology of The Boys". We talk with them about how these characters are developed so that you hate them and root for them at the same time, and how the show reflects on the real society we live in.

Matt Snyder continues our "Christmas is..." series by looking at the simple nature of Jesus entering into the world and into our own lives. Scripture Reference: "“There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world… Now this was John’s testimony when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, ‘I am not the Christ.’ They asked him, ‘Then who are you? Are you Elijah?’ He said, ‘I am not.’ ‘Are you a prophet?’ He answered, ‘No.’ Finally they said, ‘Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?’ John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, ‘I am a voice of one calling in the desert, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’’ Now some Pharisees who had been sent questioned him, ‘Why then do you baptize if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?’ ‘I baptize with water,’ John replied, ‘but among you stands one you do not know. He is the one who comes after me, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.’ This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was baptized.” -- John 1:6-8, 19-28 Follow Matt on Twitter
On this episode, Matt & Jesse have a discussion with Kelsey Goldberg (@KelseyFGold) and Jack Suria Linares (@SuriaLinares213) from DSA-Los Angeles chapter about the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Kelsey and Jack explore their childhood and later political awakening by describing the moment (or moments) that led to not only their transcendent belief in socialism, but how they went beyond mere beliefs by deciding to take action and become activists and organizers via their self-discovery process. We will also learn about DSA's history and contributions, as well as its future aims as a consequence of its recent National Convention. Additionally, our visitors to the show will talk about what DSA-LA has in the revolutionary pot that's about to boil over into a Mario-Brothers pasta of comrade-goodness. By the very end of this podcast episode, Kelsey, Jesse and Jack get our ‘DSA-Curious' Comrade, Matthew, to break down his resistance and finally #TrySocialism.

His massive body of work, which includes nearly 100 books, has for decades deflated and exposed the lies of the power elite and the myths they perpetrate. Chomsky has done this despite being blacklisted by the commercial media, turned into a pariah by the academy and, by his own admission, being a pedantic and at times slightly boring speaker. He combines moral autonomy with rigorous scholarship, a remarkable grasp of detail and a searing intellect. He curtly dismisses our two-party system as a mirage orchestrated by the corporate state, excoriates the liberal intelligentsia for being fops and courtiers and describes the drivel of the commercial media as a form of ‘brainwashing.'” Al Jazeera: “More Americans Joining Socialist Groups Under Trump” The New Republic: “Are the Democratic Socialists of America For Real?” Sarah Silverman at the DNC Convention in 2016: “Can I just say, to the Bernie or Bust People, You're Being Ridiculous.” Matthew Snyder's Co-Organizing for the First Fundraiser in the I.E. for Sanders' Presidential Run: “Our Barn-Storming-for-Bernie Fundraiser in the I.E.” {July 18th, 2015} Why People Support Bernie Sanders from Such a Broad Spectrum of American Society?

Gentrification. Housing Bubbles. Developers & Their “Pay 2 Play” Campaign Donations (Bribes) to City Council Members. And then there's the needless cruelty of permanent homelessness. On this episode, Jesse & Matt ratchet-up their manifesto on their Mixtape for the Future by talking about the second-most important cornerstone of The Golden Square: namely, the universal right to human shelter. While a good deal of the debate and conversation will provide a clear-sighted and information-packed survey on the problems, causes and solutions involved with creating universal rights to housing, Matt & Jesse will also expand past common notions of shelter that often go unnoticed in the popular conversations found in daily rituals. And in doing so, the co-hosts hope to transcend the blind and abject observations from America's TV-Clown punditry on housing.

This place is run by Democrats and has been since forever. This has nothing to do with Republicans or Trump. We've got high-rise luxury condos sprouting up all over Downtown that no one actually lives in. Massive gleaming skyscrapers sitting there empty while more and more people are forced out of doors. This is a disaster. I've been to developing countries that have less people living on the streets than the second-largest city in the wealthiest country in the world. So here's a proposal: how about not another goddamn viral clip, or tweet or magazine cover or open letter or vacuous emission of another goddamn celebrity or late-night comedian or entertainment industry luminary talking about Trump or Russia or “backwards ignorant America that votes against its own self-interest” or cracking jokes about the racist, sexist rubes that live out in the sticks until this shit is fixed? Do you seriously think this shit is not racist and sexist? How about not getting to be in the 1%, or even the 10%, to drive past literal tent-encampments on your way to work, to step over the dispossessed just moments before they turn on your spotlight and soundcheck your mic, and have a goddamn thing you have to say about politics and society get listened to? How about not getting to publicly opine about national, much less geo-politics until you can figure out how your own city council works and you drag your camera crews to right outside your studio doors and show the world what's going on in America in 2017, in one of the "strongholds" of "the resistance"?

April Stolf wrote the book on success. It s called The Art and Science of Success. After a couple of cocktails Neuro Linguistic Programming seems pretty easy. April has enough material at this table to keep her busy for a year re programming personalities. First there s Zach Quinn. Zach dropped out of high school in Chalmette in 10th grade due to "mental problems." Today he claims to be riddled with insecurity and self doubt, but it s impossible to tell from his public persona as the front person for wildly successful punk band The Pears. Then there s Matthew Snyder. He s a professor of political science at Delgado with a specialist expertise in the Middle East. He lived and worked in politics and academia in Cairo and believes the whole of the Middle East basically has to burn to the ground before there will ever be peace. On the other hand, in his professional opinion Trump is too much of a buffoon to cause that to happen so we have nothing immediate to worry about. Other than, possibly, heroin. Cat Tod is the creative force behind the New Orleans art tech business Where Y Art, where local artists and people who love art can find each other. Cat s big news of the day, other than exploring her secret personality that makes her gyrate around her kitchen with three dogs, is the reduction by one crayon of the long running traditional box of 24 crayons, so that there will now be 23 crayons in a box.
