I'm on my way home from Japan. I thought a lot about Hiroshima and OJ Simpson. Here's a preview of an upcoming episode about how history is written in sand. This will be my first ever pay-walled episode. If you'd like to hear the whole thing, head on over to Patreon.

Isaac is joined by Dorian (@dankdeleuze) and Klonny (ParaPower Mapping) to talk the politics of paranoia and Max Azzarello, the Florida man who self-immolated in front of the courthouse charging Trump. If you like what you hear, be sure to check out Klonny's fantastic podcast here and Patreon here. And Dorian's work here. And my Patreon here.

Isaac is joined by his dear friend, Maxwell Cody (@schizotopia/@neoyeoman) to talk about the merits of geoengineering. Is it techno-hubris that will destroy mankind? Or will we irreparably destroy earth's systems? Be sure to subscribe to Maxwell's Substack for some gorgeous insight.

Diddy, AKA P Diddy, AKA Puff Daddy, AKA Brother Love is in big trouble. There are 5 separate cases against the rap mogul. One of the allegations claims that if the victim did butt stuff with Diddy, then he could guarantee him a Grammy. It makes you wonder just how many celebrities have done sexual quid pro quos in exchange for their success. Isaac is joined by hip hop experts Nathan J. Robinson (@jesuslasupajew) and Manny Rangel who talk Diddy to him.

Finally--some bipartisan agreement in Congress. This month, our esteemed elected officials voted to "ban" the social media giant. But the ban would just force the private Chinese company that owns it to sell it to investors with ties to the Israeli government. Isaac is joined by James Rehwald and Sam Quick to talk about the state of social media, dopamine and deplatforming.

Isaac and Herman go off the rails and talk about fear of flying, Alexei Navalny, fidget spinners, near death experiences, Jacob's Ladder and our mothers.

Isaac talks media layoffs and the death of the Vice with Paul Blest and David Roth. Private equity is sucking the life out of journalism. Most modern journalists have been laid off multiple times by different publications. We ask how these investment bankers sleep at night, how we got here and what we can do to save journalism. You can do your part by supporting A More Perfect Union and Defector. You can also still by my hats. Music production consultant: Nina Clark

Isaac is joined by Dorian (@dankdeleuze) and Mike (@turnleftist) to talk about the politics of sacrifice.

Jon Stewart is back and nothing has changed. America is at a historical dead end. The old world will not die and so the new world cannot be born. Isaac is joined by his good friends Ben and Jordano of the show Remember Shuffle to discuss the return of Jon Stewart and the end of history (it stopped in the 2000s). Be sure to check out Remember Shuffle, a show that examines the 2000s and its tremors that define our modern lives.

Isaac tempts fate by comparing Rachel Dolezal to Jake Sully from the movie Avatar. Ja, AKA @lexaprotagonist , keeps Isaac's white boy antics in check on this very special episode where we decide if Rachel Dolezal is as bad as the media made her out to be for claiming black identity.
