Journalist Peter Byrne joins us to discuss Military AI Watch.  Hosted by Project Censored, Military AI Watch “exposes the hidden forces behind the AI arms race, the corporations cashing in, and the dire consequences for global security and democracy. Based on two years of extensive research, Byrne’s reporting sheds light on what powerful interests don’t want you to know.”

Former CIA officer and bestselling author Barry Eisler joins us to discuss his new novel, The System. Here is what I wrote about the book:

The System depicts a fictionalized version of the late US Empire—an economic and military juggernaut now in terminal decline as the regime and its institutions buckle under the weight of their own corrupt and corrupting inertia. With compelling prose, Eisler has written a deep political thriller in which the characters exist in shades of gray. They all must accommodate various governmental and private sector interests in such a way as to become complicit in a system so illegitimate that its true dimensions cannot be candidly discussed or explained in “mainstream” settings. Let us hope that entertaining fiction like this can help snap Americans out of their red/blue partisan trances and unite them against their real enemy—the oligarchic regime itself.

Aaron and Max discuss the 2019 Martin Scorsese film, The Irishman. The film stars Robert DeNiro as an Irish-American hitman and Al Pacino as the notorious Teamster president, Jimmy Hoffa. The film is based on the book, I Heard You Paint Houses, by Charles Brandt. We recommend that people watch the film before listening since we don’t attempt to give any organized synopsis, nor do we avoid spoilers. Listen at your own risk!

Aaron is joined by Ben Thomason. Ben recently earned his doctorate in American Cultural Studies from Bowling Green State University. His dissertation is entitled, Making Democracy Safe for Empire: A History and Political Economy of the National Endowment for Democracy, United States Agency for International Development, and Twenty-First Century Media Imperialism.

In this episode, we discuss two of Ben’s latest articles for CovertAction Magazine, both of which deal with the US dirty war on Syria. The first article is “The U.S.A.’s Longest ‘Democracy’ Project in Syria Has Resulted in the Empowerment of Al-Qaeda.” The second article, soon to be published, is “Western Soft Power Agencies Established a Support Front for Armed Insurrection in Syria led by al-Qaeda-Linked Rebels.”
