EP. 896: HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!

Jul 8, 2026

Jul 8, 2026

2hr 3 min

 
The United States just turned 250 years young and what better way to celebrate then discussing the new book by Derick Varn and Daniel Tutt?
 
In The People Are Not One, Daniel Tutt and C. Derick Varn dismantle the central illusion of contemporary left politics: that “the people” can serve as a coherent subject of emancipation. Against both right and left populisms, they argue that this fantasy of unity obscures real class antagonisms and traps socialism in a dead-end politics of moral appeal and electoral maneuver.

EP. 895: WE'RE ALL VICTIMS OF THE PUBLIC IMAGE

Jul 6, 2026

Jul 6, 2026

2hr 3 min

We give PR statements after the deaths of celebrities we never knew, AI email responses allow us to be polite and sterile; never offending anyone. Young children are now camera ready at the drop of a dime, we are all celebrities of our own making drifting aimlessly in the modern day "Truman Show" performance of life.
Let's discuss.

EP. 894: THE JUDGMENT OF GENDER: HOW WOMEN ARE CENTERED AND SILENCED IN POP CULTURE ft. ALISON T. BUTLER

Jul 2, 2026

Jul 2, 2026

1hr 25 min

Get Alison's book here direct from the publisher: https://www.project-censored.org/shop/p/judgment-of-gender
 
The Judgment of Gender addresses the ways in which women are centered, while simultaneously silenced, in popular culture and, all too often, maligned for simply being women. The text focuses on key areas and times where women are highlighted as “problematic,” including a generational legacy of harming women, women who speak and act out, women who occupy a space not traditionally “theirs,” women who are physically harmed for being women, and women who harm other women. Grounded in critical media literacy, the text addresses, but does not wallow in, dark and difficult topics. Rather, the text asks questions of pop culture, inviting readers to look differently, and ideally with more nuance, at how stories of celebrity and those thrust into celebrity are framed. Women and stories discussed include Anita Hill, Christine Blasey Ford, and the legacy of speaking out against sexual assault; Sinéad O’Connor, Britney Spears, and the dangers of acting out; Kathleen Hanna, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, Zoe Quinn, and the risks of occupying space not traditionally associated with women; missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls (MMIWG) and the threat of violence against women for the audacity of being women; and Monica Lewinsky, Linda Tripp, Maureen Dowd, and the harm that women perpetuate on other women. The text closes with suggestions for how to use basic concepts from critical media literacy in our roles as audiences and creators of mediated communication, operating as a lens through which one can deconstruct and talk back to the media’s treatment of women.
