In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Keegan Kjeldsen, host of The Nietzsche Podcast/Untimely Reflections, to talk about the powerful complementary insights between Nietzsche and Machiavelli, as well as other thinkers such as Karl Marx and Ibn Khaldun. We also discuss the ways in which Nietzsche's work is often misunderstood, appropriated, or diluted by people on the right and left.

In The Backroom segment on Patreon, Keegan and I critique Jordan Peterson’s understanding of Nietzsche and the ways in which popular “Petersonian” YouTube channels such as “Academy of Ideas” and “Thoughts on Thinking” distort Nietzche. It was an exhilarating episode; you don't want to miss it!

In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined by Victor Bruzzone of the Pill Pod (Plastic Pills Podcast) to discuss forms of radical democracy such as Sortition - “the lot system” in which representatives are selected at random by lottery. It was used in Ancient Athens and for a time also in the Republics of Florence, Venice and Genoa. 

Sortition is not the same thing as “direct democracy,”  such as assembly (which was also used in Athenian Democracy). The Marxist Paul Cockshott also proposes the sortition system in his book, “Towards a New Socialism.” 

In The Backroom, Victor proposes his own variant of sortition, which he has been working on, which I found quite fascinating and innovative. You don’t want to miss it.

In this episode of 1Dime Radio, I am joined once again by the Marxist philosopher Daniel Tutt to talk about his book Psychoanalysis and the Politics of the Family.

In his book, Daniel Tutt presents critiques of both Family Abolitionists and provides a critical history of the modern nuclear family and how it changed under capitalism. He engages with the theories of Christopher Lasch, Jaques Lacan, Freud, Rene Girard, Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, and various Marxist Feminist theorists.

In this episode of 1Dime Radio I am joined by Plastic Pills, the theory Youtuber/philosopher extraordinaire who has some of the best and most artistic videos on philosophy, theory, and politics. I know the title says “postmodern neomarxism”, and we do talk about that, but in this conversation Pills and I talk about a bunch of random stuff. It's been a highly requested collab, and I have been talking to Pills for a minute, so we made this happen. More to come!

In this episode of the 1Dime Radio podcast, I am joined by Donald Parkinson, chief editor of Cosmonaut Magazine and Member of the Marxist Unity Group. Donald and I discuss the strategy of socialist organizing today in America, Democratic Socialists of America (the DSA), the prospect of starting a new socialist party, and what the Left’s relationship to The Democrats should be.

In the backroom podcast on Patreon, we debate the Biden vs Trump election, organizing in red states, MAGA Communism, and whether a Democrat or Republican administration would be worse for Palestine and foreign policy more broadly.
