Off-kilter 05-19-2018 by Progressive Voices

@TheCoffeeCast. 10 people killed and 10 people wounded in the Santa Fe High School shooting in Texas on Friday, May 18th. We hear the same “thoughts and prayers” nightmare again. Plus a throwback to Episode 8: The Big American Death Cult: Guns, rage and lead poisoning. @KagroX joins in the chat from our 2015 show. Has anything changed?

If the service is free, you're the product. How Facebook, Google and the rest use our data against us. My May 2nd 2018 conversation with JONATHAN TAPLIN, Director Emeritus of USC's Annenberg Innovation Lab, former tour manager for Bob Dylan and The Band, producer of films including Scorsese's MEAN STREETS. His book, MOVE FAST AND BREAK THINGs: How Facebook, Google and Amazon Cornered Culture and Undermined Democracy comes out in paperback in June. (jontaplin.com)

State of Belief 05-19-2018 by Progressive Voices

Another senseless school massacre in a nation now officially led by treasonous con men who don't even feel the need to hide their corruption.

In the ultimate example of "failing upwards," America confirms a torturer as CIA chief, sending a signal to the world that, once the beacon of (at least, publicly) upholding a standard that respects human rights, the United States has crossed the point of no return into depravity.

....and to please his base, Trump attacks women's privacy and throws a match into the Middle East tinderbox.

Another week of madness.

We discuss this and more.
