Welcome to the first episode of series two of A Line Traced, How to be Good Ancestors, in which we discuss the economic tools which perpetuate neocolonialism. In today's episode focusing on Egypt, we are joined by Yahia Shawkat, an architect, housing and urbanism researcher and the cofounder of 10Tooba, a research centre devoted to urban politics. Shawkat will take us on a deep dive into the history of Egypt's multiple housing regimes and their foreign entanglements, allowing us to examine how debt has been and continues to be levied as a tool of control and submission.How to be Good Ancestors means rereading our past to disentangle future possibilities from systems of oppression. In this podcast series, hosts and AA students Ferial Massoud, Maria Putri and Aude Tollo retrace the common histories of three nominally decolonised states – Burkina Faso, Egypt and Indonesia – through the systems of debt servitude to which they were condemned in the wake of their independence, and which they remain subject to today. We ask: what are the spatial and material consequences of these systems and how can we begin to undo them?Show Notes:- Yahia Shawkat, Egypt's Housing Crisis: The Shaping of Urban Space, 2020- Yahia Shawkat's research studio: 10tooba.org- Lena fil Medina on YouTube- Timothy Mitchell, Rule of Experts: Egypt, Techno-Politics, Modernity, 2002- Robert Vitalis, When Capitalists Collide, Business Conflict and the End of Empire in Egypt, 2018- David Sims, Understanding Cairo, the Logic of a City out of Control, 2012About A Line Traced:As our society continues to unveil fractures within its social and political systems, A Line Traced aims to examine topics that are immediate, prescient and impact the build environment in ways that require urgent architectural responses.

Along with football and religion, housing is a fundamental cornerstone of Egyptian life: it can make or break marriage proposals, invigorate or slow down the economy, and popularize or embarrass a ruler. Housing is political. Almost every Egyptian ruler over the last eighty years has directly associated himself with at least one large-scale housing project. It is also big business, with Egypt currently the world leader in per capita housing production, building at almost double China's rate, and creating a housing surplus that counts in the millions of units. Despite this, Egypt has been in the grip of a housing crisis for almost eight decades. From the 1940s onward, officials deployed a number of policies to create adequate housing for the country's growing population. By the 1970s, housing production had outstripped population growth, but today half of Egypt's one hundred million people cannot afford a decent home. Egypt's Housing Crisis: The Shaping of Urban Space (American U in Cairo Press, 2020) takes presidential speeches, parliamentary reports, legislation, and official statistics as the basis with which to investigate the tools that officials have used to ‘solve' the housing crisis—rent control, social housing, and amnesties for informal self-building—as well as the inescapable reality of these policies' outcomes. Yahia Shawkat argues that wars, mass displacement, and rural–urban migration played a part in creating the problem early on, but that neoliberal deregulation, crony capitalism and corruption, and neglectful planning have made things steadily worse ever since. In the final analysis he asks, is affordable housing for all really that hard to achieve? Rituparna Patgiri is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Indraprastha College for Women, University of Delhi. She has a PhD in Sociology from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), New Delhi. Her research interests lie in the areas of food, media, gender and public. She is also one of the co-founders of Doing Sociology. Patgiri can be reached at @Rituparna37 on Twitter.

Blue Ruin, isolation, a theater experience, just in shock, desert island band, forgotten life-changing events, arsenal of weapons, slasher movies, cannot catch a break, been in many a band, vacuuming at seven in the morning, Nazis vs. punks, dealing with disappointment, crazy nightmare, small town, the arm scene, that actually happened, control of the situation, not playing bass, a dark version of a song you already know, it was like this feeling like we were in this haunted space, intense situation, two times too many, dogs, sitting down in a room to talk with strangers, the ticking clock, a panic attack, what they were capable of, respect, that hair cut, drug factory, scarier then any monster movie, Macon Blair, through the door, character development, the paintball story, dark comedy, cannibal nazis, money, power, influence, Stacy Keach, pulling by the knife, I really did not know what the movie was gonna do, being broke, throwing the movie conventions out the window and a short film in the style of Bob Newhart comedy.  Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers for “Green Room”, so go watch the movie before you listen.  “...I don’t know what’s about to happen here… and the unknown on the other side of that door is like equally as... terrifying as like anything else that I’ve seen in what people would consider a little more legitimate ‘horror movie’.”

Actual Anarchy Podcast - AnCap Movie Reviews from a Rothbardian Perspective

We're talking about the punk-rock horror/thriller movie Green Room. It pits an ANTIFA-flavored punk band and a white supremacist audience against in each other in a battle to the death. Sadly, they both share many of the same ideas and horrific understanding of economics and morality. We get deep into some of the weeds here in a fun critique of pacing and real grown-up style reviewing. Enjoys! Show notes: http://www.actualanarchy.com/98 Presented by www.ActualAnarchy.com Robert and I analyze popular movies from a Rothbardian/Anarcho-Capitalist perspective. We use movies as a starting point for people who may not be familiar with this way of thinking.   Discussion of the plot and decisions that characters make in relation to morality and violations of the non-aggression principle are our bread and butter. We also will highlight and discuss any themes or lessons from Austrian Economics that we can glean from the film. The point is to show what anarchy actually is with instances that are presented in film. We publish at least once per week; and occasionally will do specials surrounding holidays or events (elections/olympics) and have guests. SUBSCRIBE, RATE AND REVIEW ON APPLE PODCASTS (or iTUNES)

Solen skinner, men det betyder naturligvis kun en endnu dårligere fredag end normalt i Fodboldministeriet, da der er for varmt i studiet og de to gamle gnavpotter nu igen skal til at slå græs hjemme i haverne. Men det er trods alt endelig blevet tid til at sætte lytternes længe ønskede hold af de bedste navne i Superligaens historie. Især en tidligere back fra Lyngby spreder stor glæde og glans over de 11 udvalgte. Landsholds-Lars quiz’en rammer i denne uge den ultimative bund, da Producer-Sture er nødt til at indrømme, han selv har produceret en af de tidligere udgaver af quiz’en, som der nu viser sig at være en fejl i, og både Wolny og Jacobsen samtidigt leverer deres ringeste præstationer. Ren ynk… På balkonen er det lytterne, der sætter niveauet, og derfor er det med til at redde bare en lille smule af æren, da der skal svares på spørgsmål om AaB’s fans protester påvirker spillerne eller ej, om Select-bolden er fodboldens bedste af slagsen og om hvordan det egentlig er at stå i fjernsynet og skulle være kritisk overfor tidligere holdkammerater. I Roulette-runden leverer Producer-Sture sin måske bedste præstation nogensinde, da hans pølsefingre får en umenneskelig svær opgave i forsøget på, for fjerde uge i streg, at vinde penge til et af verdens bedste lytteres gode fodboldformål. Legende News byder på endnu en paradeopvisning fra den tidligere topdommer Claus Bo Larsen, der endnu engang tager fusen på en af sine kolleger. Du kan høre, hvordan en linjedommer kommer til at dømme en Superligakamp med hele underkroppen smurt ind i støvlefedt. Fodboldministeriet er lavet i samarbejde med Faxe Kondi og LeoVegas. Musik: Raske Penge & Klumben + Mads Julius Dyrst. Fodboldministeriet kan kontaktes på fodboldministeriet@mediano.nu eller hashtagget #LytTilLars på Twitter.

It was an Ethan Hawke love fest on the Blaze film red carpet at the recent Sundance Film Festival.  Actors Alia Shawkat, Richie Montgomery and Josh Hamilton gush about their experience on set with Ethan, and it is easy to understand why. I have one of the most sincere and joy-filled conversations with Ethan Hawke, who still holds the torch for his craft as if this was his first movie.   Listen in as we talk about the art of making movies, working with friends and the women's movement.
