- Matthew Remski: Antifascist Dad
Matthew Remski, Host of Conspirituality and author of the forthcoming Antifascist Dad, helps us find a new kind of resistance to the atmosphere of violence in which we're living – the sweet spot for a new movement of mutual support.
About
Matthew Remski writes on spiritual delusion and possibility in the shadows of capitalism and climate change. Remski has bylines in The Walrus, GEN, Globe and Mail, Boston Globe, and TIME. He’s published nine books of poetry, fiction, and non-fiction, including (with Derek Beres and Julian Walker) Conspirituality: How New Age Conspiracy Theories Became a Health Threat, and, his latest book, Surviving Modern Yoga: Cult Dynamics, Charismatic Leaders, and What Survivors Can Teach Us. His new book, Antifascist Dad, is scheduled to be released in April 2026.
He co-hosts Conspirituality Podcast, investigating the intersections of conspiracy theories and spiritual influence, to uncover cults, pseudoscience, and authoritarian extremism.

Each supposed AI “problem” stems from a lack of imaginative capacity from us. We are refusing the opportunity to rethink more fundamental assumptions about the systems under threat.
Instead of acting like tech bros and reinforcing obsolete institutions in order to further entrench their extractive and inhumane monopolies, we can go deeper to discover what cracks are being revealed in this new media environment. Don’t shoot the messenger.

About RUSHKOFF
From the publisher's feed
Douglas Rushkoff sits down with scientists, activists, artists, philosophers, and researchers asking the same question: who actually benefits from the way we've built this world — and what do we do…
about it? Team Human is a weekly podcast about technology, power, consciousness, and what it means to stay human in a world that increasingly doesn't seem designed for us. No corporate backing. No network. No algorithm deciding what gets said. Just honest, rigorous conversation with people working at the edges of the most important questions of our time.
