My name's Kai and I feature discussion of news, politics, economics, religion and much more from the point of view of an anarcho-socialist. I don't shy away from the controversial or the uncomfortable, I lean into it!

A great night show with tons of conversation in chat, education and back and forth from a variety of view points. We covered a few headlines in the beginning but got into some really interesting areas of conversation as the night went on. Hope you enjoy!

In this livestream we mainly talked about a few headlines of the days that should have but didn't dominate the news cycle. Firstly the anniversary of the bombing of the MOVE headquarters in Philadelphia, PA 35 years ago and secondly the expansion to the PATRIOT Act that made it's way through the Senate. We also discussed VPNs and security tech for a bit and I weighed in with recommendations for the services I use and why. We also covered a few other headlines and you can find links to them below.

A productive and enjoyable (for the most part) night time show. We covered headlines both domestic and international, got to some new people amongst the audience and even had a call in from a young new podcaster from California.
Enjoy!

In this evening livestream I covered some of the day's headlines, had a chat with Brian about his political "alignment" and since he was uncertain I ran him through an 8values test on air and then circled back around to some more headlines.

In this offline episode, things are a bit different. It's essentially part journaling and part exploration of a new streaming (video) service and me playing around with setup live on the mic, seeing if it's serviceable for my wants/needs. It's a bit odd but who knows, I hope some of you enjoy it ;)

In this evening livestream we have a repeat troll come back through and pick up an interesting new tactic that exploits Podbean's terrible moderation system for dealing with users. This member of the cult of trump is particularly enamored with myself and I couldn't be more flattered that they spend so much time obsessing over my words. Eventually the event comes to a head with a semi-legitimate exchange that results in them trying to then "save my soul" or some other such nonsense. Eventually they grew bored and declared myself and fellow listeners to be unworthy of being saved and moved on with their sad existence. I wish the fellow well though, whatever he/she ends up doing (as long as they fuck right off). We then get to talk to a not so left, lefty who believes gun violence is America's #1 top priority and a right wing advocate for Trump and anti-abortion.
There were some headlines covered at the beginning but I'm too tired and lazy right now to bother sourcing them.
Enjoy!

In an actually fun, productive and informative night time episode we cover a bunch of news/headlines, get some practical education done concerning Anarchism & Socialism and a wide variety of topics ranging from historic colonialism, language, US constitutional concerns from a callers and so much more. I also had the added pleasure of being joined by Marko, a lovely man from Croatia who called in and spent quite some time on the line with me discussing these topics.
Enjoy!

A semi-standard episode just with a different crowd. The Tuesdays and Thursdays shows are now late-night episodes to better service the overseas listeners.
