Since 2010, siblings and journalists Abby Martin and Robbie Martin have been doing Media Roots Radio, a political podcast with a critical eye on US foreign policy, political partisanship and what people can do to fight back. Conversational, controversial, passionate and explicit, Media Roots stands apart from the majority of podcasts coming from a similar point of view.

Media Roots Music – ATOP Set #18
This set is dedicated to humanity: the establishment of peace and the eradication of intolerance. I believe this can be achieved once we have taken away the power from elite politicians, lobbyists, CEO's and others that have most of the say in the current operational state of the world. Once we reclaim our power as human beings, we can make this world as amazing and as hospitable as it should be toward every living creature and thing. With the right amount of positive social change, this will become a reality.
Love,
ATOP Akkad the Orphic Priest

When I'm not busy writing legislation that allows the POTUS to smash children's testicles, i read comic books. This is my imaginary soundtrack for an imaginary movie adapted from the Alan Moore (Watchmen, V for Vendetta) run of the comic book Swamp Thing.
