Against Everyone with Conner Habib

I'm joined by political journalists Abby Martin and Mike Prysner (The Empire Files) to identify and discuss how to create a moral political compass. We come up with 5 points: 1. Have a big container. 2. Find your lines in the sand, and beyond that, seek organizability. 3. Ask if a worthwhile narrative is being presented. 4. Do the dual work of individual and collective action at once. 5. Hold those you empower more responsible for their actions. Go to patreon.com/connerhabib to support AEWCH!

I talk with feminist writer and icon Laurie Penny about why consent is not enough, her new show with Joss Whedon, and whether or not Freud was right about childhood abuse.

I talk with legendary drag performer and queen ofd Ireland, Panti Bliss (AKA Rory O'Neill) about what to do when your radical resistance becomes accepted by the mainstream.

Repost of AEWCH 11, about mass shootings and why they're happening so often in our time. I felt it only appropriate to redirect attention to this episode. I hope this episode helps frame recent events.

Special solo episode of AEWCH in which I give my definitions of something I talk about all the time: the occult! I also give you an easy occult exercise so you can get on board with the crazy nonsense I'm going on about.

Conner talks with mystery and horror author Sara Gran about mysteries, psychoanalysis, the nature of evil, and why we love murder so much.

I talk about how great Ireland is, and also tell a story about how not-so-great the media is for sex workers.

Memoirist and Hole drummer Patty Schemel talk about 1990s music, the intensities of addiction, misogyny in punk, and more.

Dr. James Strick, a historian of science at Franklin & Marshall College, dives into the life and revolutionary ideas of Wilhelm Reich. He discusses Reich's interdisciplinary influence and relevance today, touching on his sex-political work in 1920s Vienna and the implications of repression on politics and family. Strick explains Reich's break from Marxist parties, his controversial lab experiments with bions, and the design of the Orgone Accumulator. The conversation illuminates Reich's humanitarian aims and the complexities of his legacy.

I talk with Destroyer & The Invitation screenwriter, Phil Hay, about the State of Movies, 2019!
