In this podcast, I discuss the power dimension of information flow, with reference to recent government moves in the UK to exert a lot more control over the internet. The bulk of the podcast was recorded as I took my constitutional, with an introduction I added later at home. [Free. 29 minutes.]

In this podcast, I consider recent racist violence in the UK, rising authoritarianism, and widespread resentment, all in the context of global fragmentation. [Free. 33 minutes.]

In this podcast, I consider president Trump's blood-curdling threats to eliminate the entire civilisation of Iran and his sudden reversal into claiming that Iran's ten-point requirement to cease firing is a basis for future talks and an immediate cease fire. I consider this in the light of a number of actual events, certain expert commentary, and the notion that fascism is the weaponisation of the death instinct. [Free. 34 minutes.]

Join me on my constitutional. This episode is a few days out of date but, I believe, still of use. I consider the ongoing global conflict in the context of the economic, cultural, natural and informational systems which sustain human existence. [Free. 52 minutes.]

In this podcast, I revisit the alleged failed missile attack on Diego Garcia. I look at how the story has developed and been disseminated. [Free. 15 minutes.]

In this podcast, I attempt to paint a picture of where we are now by drawing on Starmer's two-faced approach to war in West Asia, the on-going genocide in Gaza and the firing of missiles towards Diego Garcia by Iran. I take all of these as signalling the beginning of the end for the hegemon. [Free. 23 minutes.]

In this podcast, I consider 'externalities' which is the name given to the dumping of waste products into water and air, and onto land by capitalist industrial production, free of charge. I argue this is done under the imperative of 'increasing shareholder value' and in which governments are implicated. This explains, I argue, why governments wait until the last minute to act, even though citizens' health may be severely impacted. I illustrate the thesis with examples from the the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. [Free. 30 minutes.]

Join me as I take my constitutional. Again, I consider subtle and not so subtle aspects of propaganda, mostly in the context of the state of the world, and particularly with respect to war in West Asia. I also briefly consider the state's resort to coercion to supress dissent from its viscous psychopathy. [Free. 19 minutes.]
