the gang does the obligatory post-Trump-almost-assassination coverage. for all our enemies, remember that this is also a comedy podcast in addition to a political podcast so nothing we say counts and that’s on period

today Bae leads us as we get into the wellness industry in the context of Western/Zionist imperial dominance and how colonizer frameworks undergird seemingly unrelated facets of economics, culture, and technology. who is allowed to be well? should the ability to live a safe and meaningful life rely on trite notions of individual physical & psychological consciousness, or consumer choices on the market? if so, who has access to these markets? if not, shouldn’t our goal be to overcome the entire concept of wellness and reterritorialize it onto a more historical and social stratum?
