Podcasts about Utopia

Micha Frazer-Carroll and Sasha Warren are back on the podcast to discuss the Dialectics of Liberation Congress: a conference that brought together the likes of R. D. Laing, David Cooper, Kwame Ture (FKA Stokely Carmichael), Herbert Marcuse, Allen Ginsburg, CLR James, Angela Davis, Carolee Schneemann, and many more in London, 1967. The congress attempted to theorize and resist violence in all its forms, we discuss what took place at this weird and intense event and what we can learn from it today.  Sasha Durakov Warren is a writer based in Minneapolis. He cofounded the group Hearing Voices Twin Cities and is the author of the fantastic book Storming Bedlam: Madness, Utopia, and Revolt which published last year with Common Notions. He runs the substack Of Unsound Mind.  Micha Frazer-Carroll is an author, journalist and editor living in London.  She was previously an editor at the magazine gal-dem and has written for publications including the Guardian, Vogue, Huck, and DAZED magazine. Micha is also the author of Mad World: The Politics of Mental Health which was published in 2023 by Pluto Press.  All samples in this episode come from the film Dialectics Of Liberation - Anatomy Of Violence (Villon films). Submit to the ANTI-SELF-HELPLINE here: https://linktr.ee/redmedicine.xyz  SUPPORT: www.buymeacoffee.com/redmedicineSoundtrack by Mark PilkingtonTwitter: @red_medicine__www.redmedicine.substack.com/

Now we build them to complete us. What happens when we merge — and what do we carry forward?A new transmission from Musing On Society and Technology Newsletter, by Marco CiappelliIn my last musing, I revisited Robbie, the first of Asimov's robot stories — a quiet, loyal machine who couldn't speak, didn't simulate emotion, and yet somehow felt more trustworthy than the artificial intelligences we surround ourselves with today. I ended that piece with a question, a doorway:If today's machines can already mimic understanding — convincing us they comprehend more than they do — what happens when the line between biology and technology dissolves completely? When carbon and silicon, organic and artificial, don't just co-exist, but merge?I didn't pull that idea out of nowhere. It was sparked by something Asimov himself said in a 1965 BBC interview — a clip that keeps resurfacing and hitting harder every time I hear it. He spoke of a future where humans and machines would converge, not just in function, but in form and identity. He wasn't just imagining smarter machines. He was imagining something new. Something between.And that idea has never felt more real than now.We like to think of evolution as something that happens slowly, hidden in the spiral of DNA, whispered across generations. But what if the next mutation doesn't come from biology at all? What if it comes from what we build?I've always believed we are tool-makers by nature — and not just with our hands. Our tools have always extended our bodies, our senses, our minds. A stone becomes a weapon. A telescope becomes an eye. A smartphone becomes a memory. And eventually, we stop noticing the boundary. The tool becomes part of us.It's not just science fiction. Philosopher Andy Clark — whose work I've followed for years — calls us “natural-born cyborgs.” Humans, he argues, are wired to offload cognition into the environment. We think with notebooks. We remember with photographs. We navigate with GPS. The boundary between internal and external, mind and machine, was never as clean as we pretended.And now, with generative AI and predictive algorithms shaping the way we write, learn, speak, and decide — that blur is accelerating. A child born today won't “use” AI. She'll think through it. Alongside it. Her development will be shaped by tools that anticipate her needs before she knows how to articulate them. The machine won't be a device she picks up — it'll be a presence she grows up with.This isn't some distant future. It's already happening. And yet, I don't believe we're necessarily losing something. Not if we're aware of what we're merging with. Not if we remember who we are while becoming something new.This is where I return, again, to Asimov — and in particular, The Bicentennial Man. It's the story of Andrew, a robot who spends centuries gradually transforming himself — replacing parts, expanding his experiences, developing feelings, claiming rights — until he becomes legally, socially, and emotionally recognized as human. But it's not just about a machine becoming like us. It's also about us learning to accept that humanity might not begin and end with flesh.We spend so much time fearing machines that pretend to be human. But what if the real shift is in humans learning to accept machines that feel — or at least behave — as if they care?And what if that shift is reciprocal?Because here's the thing: I don't think the future is about perfect humanoid robots or upgraded humans living in a sterile, post-biological cloud. I think it's messier. I think it's more beautiful than that.I think it's about convergence. Real convergence. Where machines carry traces of our unpredictability, our creativity, our irrational, analog soul. And where we — as humans — grow a little more comfortable depending on the very systems we've always built to support us.Maybe evolution isn't just natural selection anymore. Maybe it's cultural and technological curation — a new kind of adaptation, shaped not in bone but in code. Maybe our children will inherit a sense of symbiosis, not separation. And maybe — just maybe — we can pass along what's still beautiful about being analog: the imperfections, the contradictions, the moments that don't make sense but still matter.We once built tools to serve us. Now we build them to complete us.And maybe — just maybe — that completion isn't about erasing what we are. Maybe it's about evolving it. Stretching it. Letting it grow into something wider.Because what if this hybrid species — born of carbon and silicon, memory and machine — doesn't feel like a replacement… but a continuation?Imagine a being that carries both intuition and algorithm, that processes emotion and logic not as opposites, but as complementary forms of sense-making. A creature that can feel love while solving complex equations, write poetry while accessing a planetary archive of thought. A soul that doesn't just remember, but recalls in high-resolution.Its body — not fixed, but modular. Biological and synthetic. Healing, adapting, growing new limbs or senses as needed. A body that weathers centuries, not years. Not quite immortal, but long-lived enough to know what patience feels like — and what loss still teaches.It might speak in new ways — not just with words, but with shared memories, electromagnetic pulses, sensory impressions that convey joy faster than language. Its identity could be fluid. Fractals of self that split and merge — collaborating, exploring, converging — before returning to the center.This being wouldn't live in the future we imagined in the '50s — chrome cities, robot butlers, and flying cars. It would grow in the quiet in-between: tending a real garden in the morning, dreaming inside a neural network at night. Creating art in a virtual forest. Crying over a story it helped write. Teaching a child. Falling in love — again and again, in new and old forms.And maybe, just maybe, this hybrid doesn't just inherit our intelligence or our drive to survive. Maybe it inherits the best part of us: the analog soul. The part that cherishes imperfection. That forgives. That imagines for the sake of imagining.That might be our gift to the future. Not the code, or the steel, or even the intelligence — but the stubborn, analog soul that dares to care.Because if Robbie taught us anything, it's that sometimes the most powerful connection comes without words, without simulation, without pretense.And if we're now merging with what we create, maybe the real challenge isn't becoming smarter — it's staying human enough to remember why we started creating at all.Not just to solve problems. Not just to build faster, better, stronger systems. But to express something real. To make meaning. To feel less alone. We created tools not just to survive, but to say: “We are here. We feel. We dream. We matter.”That's the code we shouldn't forget — and the legacy we must carry forward.Until next time,Marco_________________________________________________

So who killed privacy? It's the central question of Tiffany Jenkins' provocative new history of private life, Strangers and Intimates. The answer, according to Jenkins, is that we are all complicit—having gradually and often accidentally contributed to privacy's demise from the 16th century onwards. Luther started it by challenging Papal religious authority and the public sacraments, thereby creating the necessity of private conscience. Then came Enlightenment philosophers like Locke and Hobbes who carved out bounded private political and economic spheres establishing the foundations for modern capitalism and democracy. Counter-enlightenment romantics like Rousseau reacted against this by fetishizing individual innocence and authenticity, while the Victorians elevated the domestic realm as sacred. Last but not least, there's Mark Zuckerberg's socially networked age, in which we voluntarily broadcast our private lives to a worldwide audience. But why, I ask Jenkins, should we care about the death of private life in our current hyper-individualistic age? Can it be saved by more or less obsession with the self? Or might it require us to return to the world before Martin Luther, a place Thomas More half satiricizes Utopia, where “private life” was a dangerously foreign idea. 1. Privacy is a Historical Accident, Not a Natural Human Condition"There was a sense in which you shouldn't do anything privately that they wouldn't do publicly... This wasn't a kind of property-based private life." Jenkins argues that before the 17th century, the very concept of leading a separate private life didn't exist—privacy as we understand it is a relatively recent invention.2. Martin Luther Accidentally Created Modern Privacy Through Religious Rebellion"Luther inadvertently... authorized the self as against, in his case, the Catholic Church... if you follow the debates over the kind of beginnings of a private sphere and its expansion, whether you're reading Locke or Hobbes, there's a discussion about... the limits of authority." Luther's challenge to religious authority unintentionally created the need for private conscience, sparking centuries of development toward individual privacy.3. The Digital Age Represents a Return to Pre-Privacy Transparency"I think we do live in a period where there is little distinction between public and private, where the idea that you might keep something to yourself is seen as strange, as inauthentic." Jenkins suggests our current era of social media oversharing resembles pre-modern times more than the Victorian peak of privacy.4. Modern Loneliness Stems From Social Fragmentation, Not Individual Psychology"I sometimes wonder if we're pathologizing, actually, what is a social problem, which is a society where people are fragmented, not quite sure how to go beyond themselves... I would see that as a social problem." Rather than treating loneliness as a personal issue, Jenkins argues it reflects the breakdown of intermediate institutions between family and state.5. Technology Doesn't Determine Our Privacy—We Do"Can't blame the tech, tech isn't the problem... It comes down really to what sort of society we want to live in and how we want to be treated. That's not a technical thing. That has not to do with technology. That's to do humans." Jenkins rejects technological determinism, arguing that privacy's fate depends on human choices about social organization, not inevitable technological forces.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

En collaboration avec le Festival Latitudes contemporaines et La rose des vents, scène nationale.Rencontre avec Patricia Allio et Mortaza Behboudi, à l'occasion de la parution de son livre, Dispak Dispac'h, Tribunal permanent des peuples, aux éditions Les solitaires intempestifs.Au lendemain de sa majorité, sa tutrice me téléphone et me dit : « On a eu la visite de la gendarmerie, Laye doit quitter l'entreprise dans un mois. » Je ne me vois pas laisser partir un apprenti si enjoué d'apprendre, si souriant, si sérieux, alors que personne ne vient pour prendre cette place. Je demande à des amis : « Qu'est-ce que je fais ? »En janvier 2018, se tenait la session du Tribunal permanent des peuples consacrée à la violation des droits des personnes migrantes et réfugiés. Patricia Allio bascule au théâtre sa perception de ce moment. Des activistes, des juristes, une ancienne députée européenne, un boulanger, un journaliste afghan, un poète racontent les méandres qui guettent les demandeurs d'asile.Quelles voix méritent d'être entendues et pourtant ne le sont pas ? Que dit-on lorsqu'on ne trouve plus les mots ? Dispak Dispac'h ouvre les esprits et l'espace d'une micro-révolution où célébrer les indisciplines. La seule chose à ne pas perdre pour pouvoir s'insurger, ce sont nos voix.Créé en novembre 2021 au Théâtre de Lorient dans une mise en scène de l'auteure, le spectacle est présenté lors du Festival d'Avignon 2023 du 15 au 21 juillet.Outre Patricia Allio, Dispak Dispac'h réunit le co-fondateur de l'association humanitaire Utopia 56, Gaël Manzi, l'actrice Élise Marie, le militant politique Stéphane Ravacley – connu pour son engagement ayant permis la régularisation de Laye Fodé Traoré qui travaillait dans sa boulangerie comme apprenti –, l'ex-députée européenne et vice-présidente de la Ligue des droits de l'Homme, Marie-Christine Vergiat, l'activiste et fondateur de Refugees in Lybia, David Yambio, ainsi que le journaliste franco-afghan Mortaza Behboudi, libéré le 18 octobre 2023, après neuf mois de détention à Kaboul suite à son arrestation par les Talibans.

Speljuntans roadtrip parkerar på rastplatsen Utopia. Juntans generaler har tagit semester från sisyfus-slagsmålet mot marknadens osynliga hand och återhämtar sig med en cocktail av drömmar om hur en bättre spelbransch skulle kunna se ut. Får man vilja bli rik på spel? Hur motiverar man kollegan Johannes att jobba hårt utan kapitalismens piskor och morötter? Vilka spelstudior går i bräschen för bättre arbetsvillkor? Är vi framme snart? Dessa frågor stöts och blöts av Juntans tankesmedja innan roadtripen rullar vidare mot nästa anhalt.

Human nature and the possibility of utopiaThe idea of utopia - of a perfect society devoid of suffering and inequality - is planted firmly in the human imagination and psyche. From pre-biblical times to Thomas More and communism and beyond, widely disparate groups have attempted to plan or create a utopia. But is it achievable? And if not, why not?Join unconventional psychologist Paul Bloom as he makes the case for the impossibility of utopia given certain key features of human nature. We are not meant, he argues, for perfect harmony and equality. Paul Bloom is a researcher of perversion and suffering, so his perspective brings interesting insights on the question. But what do you think? Can we ever achieve utopia?

Utopia Utopia~ A new world was the mission. A secret civilization no one knew about changed everything.When Dr. Delilah Dweck, a decorated physician, boards the first manned mission to Mars, she's chasing the dream of discovery. Alongside her is an astrobiologist, Dr. Jacob Stern, and a handpicked team of elite scientists, each prepared to leave Earth behind forever. Their mission: to build a permanent colony and turn the barren red planet into humanity's next home.Mars holds secrets far older—and far stranger—than anyone could have imagined. Beneath the dust lies a thriving ancient civilization: the Xan'tains. Not only are they alive, they claimed to have seeded Earth millions of years ago—and now, they're ready to reclaim their descendants.The price of survival? Reproduction. Each astronaut must help populate the colony, either biologically or through artificial means. Their children, born of Mars and Earth, exhibit extraordinary abilities—abilities the Xan'tains see as the next evolution.As the colony expands beyond Mars and into the stars, the crew discovers a powerful galactic federation balancing diplomacy and domination. But when Delilah uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to shatter this fragile peace, the true test begins. Can Delilah protect both her people and the future they're building—or will Utopia collapse under the weight of its own creation?A sweeping saga of interstellar discovery, ancient power, and the fragile hope of unity. Utopia is perfect for fans of The Expanse and The Three-Body Problem. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Myth and Identity in the Martial Arts: Creating the Dragon (Lexington Books, 2025) is a study of the role of myth and ideology in the formation of social identity, focusing on a variety of communities of practice involving the martial arts in East Asian and Western history. Alexus McLeod argues that myths of the martial arts should not be understood as “falsehoods” created as means of legitimizing modern practices, but should instead be understood as narratives that enable individuals and communities to formulate social identities and to accord meaning to their practices. This book covers six influential sources of myth and identity formation in the history of martial arts: early Chinese and Indian philosophy, the formation bushido thought in the Edo period of Japan, Republican-era Chinese conceptions of nationhood and physical culture, Western contributions and the innovations of Bruce Lee, African American conceptions of martial arts as a response to oppression in the twentieth century, and the contemporary ideologies of mixed martial arts. On doing philosophy with non-textual sources, see Alexus McLeod, An Introduction to Mesoamerican Philosophy.  On violence as the preferred weapon of the stupid (so they can avoid doing any interpretative labour), see David Graeber, The Utopia of Rules: On Technology, Stupidity, and the Secret Joys of Bureaucracy.

Thomas More was one of the most famous—and notorious—figures in English history. Born into the era of the Wars of the Roses, educated during the European Renaissance, rising to become Chancellor of England, and ultimately destroyed by Henry VIII, he hunted Protestants for heresy and had them burnt at the stake in the final years of Catholic England, but after the English Reformation, he was executed himself when he refused to support Henry VIII as the Supreme Head of the English Church. He also achieved literary immortality for his book Utopia, which describes an ideal, imaginary island society with communal property, religious tolerance, and social harmony, critiquing the political and social issues of 16th-century Europe. Was he a saintly scholar and an inspiration for statesmen and intellectuals even today? The Catholic Church would say ‘yes’, as they canonized him and made him the patron saint of statesmen. Or was he the cruel zealot who only wanted to burn Protestants alive and hold back England’s progress? Today’s guest is Joanne Paul, author of Thomas More: A Life. We look at a man who, more than four hundred years after his execution, remains one of the most brilliant minds of the Renaissance. He also shows us the limits of passive resistance and how somebody can achieve posthumous fame but also fail to affect the events of his day.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you heard On the Media's Peabody-winning series The Divided Dial? It's awesome and you should, and now you will. In this episode they tell the story of shortwave radio: the way-less-listened to but way-farther-reaching cousin of AM and FM radio. The medium was once heralded as a utopian, international, and instantaneous mass communication tool — a sort of internet-before-the-internet. But, like the internet, many people quickly saw the power of this new technology and found ways to harness it. State leaders turned it into a propaganda machine, weaponizing the airwaves to try and shape politics around the world. And as shortwave continued to evolve, like the internet, it became fragmented, easily accessible, and right-wing extremists, conspiracy theorists and cult leaders found homes on the different shortwave frequencies. And even today - again, like the internet - people with money are looking to buy up this mass-communication tool in the hopes of … making more money. This is episode one from the second season of The Divided Dial a limited series from On The Media. Listen on Spotify (https://zpr.io/hKCcFEGTLb5a)Listen on Apple Podcasts (https://zpr.io/tQ86YmEmiivR)Listen on the WNYC App (iTunes, Android)Listen to the full Divided Dial series (https://www.onthemedia.org/dial)Follow On The Media on Instagram @onthemedia The Divided Dial was supported in part by a grant from the Fund for Investigative Journalism. On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

While Chuck is out this week, we revisit our first interview from 2020. Theorist Albena Azmanova examines the dynamics of post-2008 precarity capitalism, the left's long failure to strike through capitalism's competitive production of profit, and explains why radical change for the precarious multitude is possible without a revolutionary break - but through subversive pragmatism. Albena is author of Capitalism on Edge: How Fighting Precarity Can Achieve Radical Change Without Crisis or Utopia from Columbia University Press.

A conversation with Czech Cider Fan Dan Samek This episode brings us to the heart of Europe by way of Vermont. Ria sat down with Dan Samek, a cider enthusiast and home distiller from Prague, to talk about the evolving cider scene in the Czech Republic. They met at Kilowatt Park which is on the west side of the Connecticut River in White River Junction, Vermont. Dan Samek This was the first stop on the Cider Tour to Vermont and New York in May 2025. In this Cider Chat featuring Czech Cider 1. A Fruitful History The Czech Republic is rich with apples, pears, plums, and cherries and exports a lot of fruit. For centuries, fruit trees lined roads to feed traveling soldiers. This is a legacy left from the  Barak times, in the 18th century 2. Cider by Way of Calvados Dan journey to cider started while he was working at a French winery He has an affection for Calvados and thus made cider to distill. His process blends natural fermentation and dry yeast (He favors the yeast known as 72B). The apples come from old trees in his one-acre garden-orchard near Prague. 3. Small Scene, Big Potential Early cider makers in the Cech Republic began around 2007. Prague had a cider shop (InCider) and a cider bar, but today you can find cider at most bars. Cidrerie Kliment and Utopia are two standout producers—Utopia leans all natural. 4. Enthusiasts Leading the Way Many Czech homes still have fruit trees. Backyard fermenters use presses ranging from barrel-style to hydraulic. Gardening clubs and university programs help spread knowledge. 5. Beyond Apples Dan grows quince and medlars and has a Sorbus domestica tree in his orchard. Morovia which is to the north of Prague has a Sorubus Domestic museum. There's a growing appreciation for traditional and lesser-known fruits in fermentation.

His friend the great scholar Desiderius Erasmus referred to Thomas More as “a Man for all seasons.” But which season? Or which Thomas More? Is he an advocate of conscience? A heroic defender of the Catholic faith? A saintly martyr? A fanatical zealot unwilling to listen to cool reason? An amateur inquisitor who lit the night with burning Lutherans and their books, and enjoyed little more than coming home after work for a torture session? Does every era get the Thomas More that it deserves?Thomas More was indeed a man of many twists and turns, a Tudor Odysseus. A Londoner; the grandson of a baker and son of a lawyer; a page in a noble household; an exceptional prose stylist, in Latin or English; a lawyer of exceptional diligence and skill; a guild member; a religious controversialist, able to match Martin Luther in scatology; a subtle humanist of European-wide fame; a poet; a politician; a bureaucrat; a royal advisor; a confessor of the faith; a prisoner; and a martyr. He was all those things, and more besides. With me to talk about the life and times of Thomas More is Joanne Paul, Associate Professor in Early Modern History at the University of Sussex. Her research focuses on the intellectual and cultural history of the Renaissance and Early Modern periods, written widely on Thomas More, William Shakespeare, Machiavelli and Thomas Hobbes. Her most recent book is Thomas More: A Life, which is the subject of our conversation today.For Further Investigation The web page of Joanne PaulThomas More: A LifeThe last time we talked about the Tudors on Historically ThinkingAnd the book we talked about with its author, Lucy E.C.

In this episode of PGAP, we're joined by Michael D.B. Harvey, author of "The Age of Humachines: Big Tech and the Battle for Humanity's Future." Harvey offers a sobering perspective on the trajectory of modern technology - not towards a Star Trek-style utopia but into a hyper-neoliberal, corporate-driven dystopia shaped by Big Tech. His analysis strikes a chord with the Post-Growth community, which has long challenged the illusion that technology alone can rescue us from our social and ecological crises. Yet, Harvey is not fatalistic. He envisions a radically different future that is grounded in degrowth, steady-state economics, and a shared commitment to equity and ecological sustainability. The Age of Humachines explores how today's tech revolution increasingly shapes every aspect of our lives, introducing critical concepts like the Technocene (the possible successor to the Anthropocene), Smartheid societies, and CIMENT, a term Harvey uses to describe the dominant values of Competitive Individualism and Materialist Entitlement. In contrast, he proposes a new framework: SEWP (Sustainable, Equitable Wellbeing Planetwide), offering offering a hopeful lens through which we might transition toward an Ecocene future. _ Cover of 'The Age of Humachines'. You can purchase your copy, or find our more, HERE (https://steadystate.org/steady-state-press/the-age-of-humachines/). _ This conversation also provided PGAP co-hosts Mark Allen and Michael Bayliss the opportunity to reflect on their personal relationships with technology over the past three decades, from the optimism of the 1990s to the increasing unease of today's digital world. Michael D.B. Harvey holds qualifications in English Literature, Sociology, Psychology, Psychotherapy, and Organizational Psychology. He is also the author of Interactional Leadership: The Art of the Choice-Focused Leader and Utopia in the Anthropocene: A Change Plan for a Sustainable and Equitable World. Harvey's connections include the Centre for the Advancement of the Steady State Economy (CASSE (https://steadystate.org/)), who helped make this interview possible. If this episode resonated with you, we highly recommend picking up a copy of The Age of Humachines [HERE] (https://steadystate.org/steady-state-press/the-age-of-humachines/), and checking out Harvey's engaging talks and interviews on YouTube, e.g. [HERE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjJxC7_8qI0)]. Michael is also a musician, performing solo (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwq4vV4poPmHrw6ARQggkKg) and withhis band Bridges of Sound (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHmzPivX_cWkVB-zVQB0Wdw). This episode features a sample of his song “Standing Up for Being Huma (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rI1nKpWTdNs&list=RDrI1nKpWTdNs&start_radio=1)n.” We'd love to hear your thoughts on the future of technology.

O Lado B recebe Euclides Vasconcelos, professor de História e Geografia, analista geopolítico e militante comunista. No papo, como Israel se posiciona no mundo de maneira bélica: o caráter imperialista na guerra com o Irã, o massacre na Palestina, a submissão e bajulação aos Estados Unidos. Também o papel das outras potências como Rússia e China e outros desdobramentos que podem, sim, desencadear uma nova guerra mundial. Afinal, é o capitalismo se movendo.

Milton Hershey never finished 4th grade. Yet, he built such a successful business that 80 years after his death his trust is still financing a wide array of charitable enterprises, with billions in surplus. Even Hershey, PA is named after him. Hershey started in caramels, but felt they were a fad and switched to chocolate. All his accomplishments, however, were almost cut short by the Titanic disaster.

Another day, another TRPE and today we clock in at over 2.5 hours. Today we start by covering the little holiday that could "Juneteenth" and the fact that essentially zero commercial businesses are actually taking it seriously. In the spirit of Juneteenth, we get into all the celebratory cookouts and why the black folks who organize them never ever have all the things they need to actually feed the people in attendance.  Additional topics for today's show include how the content game has turned into a streamer's economy equipped with copycats, haters and groupies. We salute Kai, Speed and DDG for absolutely killing it and predict what may be next. We also take a microscopic look at why Future IS NOT in The Big 3, a review of Lil Baby's WHAM Tour and a deep drive onto where his "Baby fell off" narratives originated from *COUGHS* LIVE NATION.  We round out the show discussing the Billboard Top 50 R&B list, the Breezy Bowl, Jackson 5 Reunion Tour and a historic look at the Clips/Pharrell/StarTrak/ReUp Gang/Good Music/Rocnation hate train against YMCMB/Birdman/Wayne/Drake/Travis Scott and why this shit will continue to be an issue FOREVER!! This includes a 2025 look at the MELTDOWN verse from Travis's Utopia album that has the rap game all fucked up… yet again. All this and more on today's episode of The Realest Podcast Ever.

En 1516 el gran humanista inglés Tomás Moro publicaba Utopía, una crítica a la política y la sociedad de su tiempo que presentaba, a modo ficcional de exploración, un sistema político y social ideal. Una obra de singular trascendencia que acabará por acuñar el término utopía, sinónimo de búsqueda de un ideal de difícil realización.Las utopías y los utopismos permean nuestra historia como destacado motor de cambio, y se encuentran en los movimientos sociales, políticos, literarios y artísticos que conforman nuestro imaginario.El documental de Ana Vega Toscano, con realización de Miguel Ángel Coleto, Utopias: ideal y realidad, explora las amplias facetas que el mundo del utopismo nos ofrece. Se comentan los antecedentes a la obra de Moro y de algunos de sus contemporáneos, recordando figuras como Platón o San Agustín, así como los mitos de evocación de una pasada Edad de Oro, consideradas en los estudios utópicos como retro utopías. Se subraya igualmente la importancia que tuvo el descubrimiento de América como espacio utópico idóneo y las nuevas utopías tras la Ilustración, que las sitúan en el futuro. Finalmente, se acerca a la distopía como reverso.Se cuenta para ello con la participación autores y colaboradores en destacados estudios utópicos: el investigador del Instituto de Historia del CSIC Juan Pro, coordinador del equipo Histopía de estudios utópicos y director de la Revista de Estudios Utópicos, así como de Carlos Ferrera Cuesta, Profesor Honorario del Departamento de Historia Contemporánea de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid y Hugo García Fernández, profesor titular de Historia Contemporánea en la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.Provenientes del Archivo de RTVE se recuperan grabaciones históricas con declaraciones del escritor y diplomático venezolano Carlos Rangel, y del arquitecto Fernando de Terán, catedrático emérito de urbanismo de la Escuela de Arquitectura de la UPM.Escuchar audio

Mark Jeftovic discusses the advance of globalism and his contrarian take on where it goes next. He argues that the accelerating speed of technological change is the driving force of world events today. Nation states are ceding power to network states and other actors. He explains the bitcoin monetary regime change, how stablecoins are extending dollar dominance, and whether the financial system will hold together long enough to get us to the Algorithm Ghetto. He comments on the arrival of singularity, why he remains optimistic, and staying sovereign!
