Srsly Wrong

On May 29, 2019, Arnav Gupta burned himself alive on the White House lawn, wearing a USA t-shirt. Very few people noticed, and even fewer tried to listen to what Arnav might have been telling us.

Activist and writer Brent Cooper joins the Wrong Boys for a wide-ranging discussion on this event, self-immolation broadly, and a metamodernist approach to critiquing society and building a better world.

~Episode Artwork by Arnav Gupta, entitled  “HARAMBE OR BLACK PANTHER: THE WORLD IS AS YOU SEE IT”~

Our rapid technological progress comes with many wonderful--and many horrifying--potentials. Politicians and businessmen seem determined to steer our society towards the horrifying. 

 Author and Journalist Cory Doctorow joins the Wrong Boys to help us understand the encroaching tech dystopia, and what we need to focus on to steer back towards the wonderful, liberatory potential of tech. 

Theme song by DJ Matt Hogan

This week the Wrong Boys tear open their chests and use rulers and measurements to discover that our feelings are actually real and they matter, politically and practically.

Turns out that every person has a dark and shameful secret -- we all need to hear the words "Whatever you feel, it's okay. I understand. It doesn't make me like you any less."

The Wrong Boys have been charged with the crime of Hubris for asserting that a better world is possible. To stand with their defense, please listen, like, and share this very important episode to get the word out. These charges are spurious. We will be vindicated.
