A Q&A and discussion on the socialist economic policies needed to tackle the cost of living crisis. Taxing wealth, expanding public ownership and a socialist green new deal are among the key economic policies that could stop never-ending cuts and create a better future - tune into with...Richard Burgon MP // Laura Smith, Labour Councillor and co-author of the No Holding Back report // Professor Özlem Onaran, University of Greenwich // Cat Hobbs, Director of We Own It.While all seminars and

An update of sorts on the 'Political Rewind' / GPB front and an amazing and thorough Twitter thread that sort of catches us all up on how the AJC has fingerprints on the matter. As Governor Kemp makes inroads with - get this - green energy folks, is this a tipping point where Democrats may be ceding ground only because now green energy is good for the economy? Oh, and hear what comedian Trae Crowder had to say about southerners' confusing posture when it comes to climate change &

Author, historian, activist Donald Gilliard and I caught up on a call today to discuss his and my varying perspectives on 'Juneteenth' and how we we were both introduced to it way too late in life. Then, a treat: in 1966, actor & activist Ossie Davis recited Frederick Douglass' July 5, 1852 speech where Douglass dressed down a nation with millions enslaved by pointing out the nation's day of independence cannot be the 'independence day' for the enslaved.

As we all hit the open road or airports, the heat intensifies ... from under our collars and inside our skulls as the delays and re-routes, delays and re-schedules stack up. Hear me out: we did this to ourselves and what we, as a nation need to invest in, going forward, isn't more airports and highways and lanes. It's rail. On the final day of Pride month, we're still seeing idiotic defacing of property here, and Dylan Mulvaney isn't very happy with the Bud Light folks; she has a

Chromez & Fanatik kick off the episode by talking about how their weeks have been. In the middle of this they get into whether its a good idea to let your kids be on social media early in their lives (0:14). The guys dissect the story of the married woman that got caught getting married to another man at Civic Center in Lusaka, are women just as trash as men? (7:10). Monde of the PR Girls got caught live on camera in front of a crowd playing around with a microphone in a very suggestive way,

"Affirmative action" is effectively no more when it comes to college and university admissions in the United States, thanks to a party-line 6-3 Supreme Court decision. Joining me with reaction is Atlanta NAACP chapter president Richard Rose. The passing of MLK's older sister - Christine King Fannin - today is an intriguing irony, of sorts, but her last known speech a decade ago is worthy of a listen. Lots of "smoke" at the UGA football program and this Bulldog fan is

President Joe Biden gave a 37-minute economic address in Chicago today, touting his record on the US economy; in fact embracing the term "Bidenomics." Hear it in its entirety here. You'll recall President Barack Obama used the same tactic, embracing the right wing shorthand for the Affordable Care Act - "Obamacare" - to affix his name to a solidly functioning program he pioneered. Will it work for Joe? Well, with barely more than a third of Americans polled giving him high

Melita Easters from the Georgia WIN List joins me to start the show, sort of eulogizing & speculating as to the cause for the end of a public broadcasting staple: "Political Rewind" and host Bill Nigut will no longer air on Georgia Public Broadcasting after Jun 30th. A real loss for civil discourse on Georgia's radio airwaves. Melita and I also note the year passing since the Dobbs decision and where things stand locally and nationwide. Former state & federal prosecutor, now

Another round of despicable antisemitic, Swastika-emblazened targeted intimidation took place over the weekend in Macon and nearby Cobb County, but fortunate for those Nazis they weren't trying to defend a forest or cops might've had some rubber bullets (or worse) for 'em. Anyhow, regional director of the Anti-Defamation League, Eytan Davidson joined me today to share the ADL's reaction and some advice as to how to handle such scum if it should ever arrive at your synagogue or

The episode kicks off with Chromez saying his leave hasn’t been very restful (0:09). The guys discuss the Oceangate Submersible that imploded, how bad do you want to see the Titanic in person? (3:24). The debt restructuring deal finally went through, what does this mean for the country and is Democracy the best political vehicle? (24:41). Fanatik opens up the conversation of Ambassador Emmanuel Mwamba being roughed up by Police, what should Zambians do to stop this? (1:08:19)

Eavesdrop with me on the Georgia GOP convention from over the weekend with Kari "she lost" Lake and Donald "he lost" Trump continuing to live in the past. New polling suggests that Americans are MORE convinced of seeriousness by the latest batch of indictments and yet somehow less convinced there should be repercussions. Wild. Lastly, now that Chris Licht is gone from CNN, I believe I have the solution for what would make that venerable news network relevant again - look to its

On this episode we cover a wide range of topics. (5:10) Hatch starts the podcast with a recap of the Larry June concert! (13:00) Kendrick Lamar & Baby Keem drop a single… Hatch accuses Kendrick Lamar of falling off?! (26:36) Megan The Stallion spotted with a new man … does that mean the Pardi is over?! (35:10) Shannon Sharpe reaches buyout with FOX to leave Undisputed?! (43:03) Is Brandon Miller worth taking a chance on?! (49:09) Al Pacino still slaying the cat?! (55:22) Denver Vs Miami NBA finals

A Cobb County elementary teacher has been on administrative leave⁠ since March for reading an innocuous book (⁠"My Shadow Is Purple" LISTEN HERE⁠) to her 5th grade honor students - a book one of those students bought at a book fair and a book the students voted on for her to read. So why's she in trouble? An "anti-woke" "divisive concepts" law hastened through the General Assembly and signed into law by Governor Brian Kemp. Her attorney, ⁠Craig Goodmark⁠, and the

We have a(n approved) petition for the 'Stop Cop City' folks to be hitting the streets with. Finally. We've a supermarket in Summerhill. Finally. We've a Tim Scott Town Hall. Err; I won't be diving into it as much as the noteworthiness of the very white Sean Hannity sneering that Joy Reid and Barack Obama having issues with Scott on issues facing people of color. Then there's the - get this - moving speech by Kevin McCarthy at the unveiling of the John Lewis stamp. He said

Trump indictment, round two, and the right wing reactions do NOT disappoint! Also, did Marjorie Taylor Greene flap a document on cable news television that could incriminate HER? Hear why I think you should download Grindr if you're in Columbus, Georgia this weekend or New Orleans early next week. Lastly, I'm joined today by 'Media Matters for America' Senior Climate and Energy Writer Evlondo Cooper to openl discuss/question why national media is whiffing on the SCOTUS decision to

So what does Chris Christie entering the race do for the GOP presidential primary hierarchy? And why do his attacks on Trump sound like those the Biden/Harris campaign should be writing down? Then, there's the breaking news: Tia Mitchell at the AJC revealed that a Homeland Security designation used to bolster arrest warrants for the three Atlanta Solidarity Fund volunteers was essentially "made up." Alex Joseph from the Cop City Vote movement joins me to discuss that and the referendum

In the first episode of the Cavalcade of Galactic Bullshit, Shrug and the Reverend Poop discuss the death of Ted Kaczynski, how detrimental modern media is consumed, Turkey and Erdogan, leftist purity policing, My Little Pony, upcoming strikes, and much more!Monthly summary of some of the top new stories and the capitalist machinations behind the event. Also tips and tricks for living a better life through direct action.

ON THIS EPISODE CHROMEZ & FANATIK DISCUSS; - Fanatik's new dog called Calypso. He shares his vast knowledge on dogs (1:31) - Red pill moment when they talk about the "Men are dogs" movement (10:45) - Religion being one of the reasons why people don't take accountability for their actions (22:46) - If you were JOB from the Bible, which test would have made you give up? (33:22) - The guys discuss appreciating life (39:22) - Are human beings spirits and how realistic is the Big

Waiting on the "Good Lord" and "Mother Nature" to solve our climate crisis is ACTUALLY how we got here. This year's peach crop is going to suck - and we only have ourselves to thank for that. MARTA broke ground (sorta) on it's not "transit" line - a bus rapid line that's actually better than nothing and could (I'd think) lead to expanded streetcars at some point. With all the corporate backpeddling on Pride Month (we're keeping notes, by the way)

Why is the idea of exploiting child labor abhorrent ... except in the agricultural industry - and why is the right protecting the industry's ability to use 12 to 14 year olds in unsafe conditions? Hint: it's the same reason they're routinely xenophobic about immigration, but less so about illegal employers' hiring practices. I've a beef with Target: it's Pride Month and you caved. What happens when white nationalists get physically violent during Black History Month? Matt
