  • Waste Report #1::: COVID-19: Brie Ripley (Seattle)

    In the midst of such chaos it has become clear that Waste Division needs to activate its news function. Thankfully, Waste correspondent Phillip Griffin is on the case. He got his close friend Brie Ripley on the phone to discuss her circumstances in Seattle, WA, a hotspot of the COVID-19 virus in the U.S. Thanks to Brie for taking time to talk to us!

    We MUST MAKE CLEAR: we are not like other news providers. We provide scappy, raw journalism that you need to critically think about. We do not claim to be experts. We are interested in reporting on-the-ground experiences of normal people--make of it what you will. Do your own research and analysis to decide what is best for you. Google is useful sometimes, tho evil for sure.

  • Waste Books Ep. 16 - The Baron in the Trees
    Join Jordan, Cooper, and Eric as they tackle this fanciful tale of escape & failure in the latest episode of Waste Books!
    Overview
    Italo Calvino is famous for his systematic post-modern works, but his earlier novel The Baron in the Trees tells a simpler story than the purposefully cryptic works he’s more famous for. Historical but accessible in its clarity, this story follows an adolescent Cosimo, the son of a baron administering a small territory as he defies the provincial attitudes of his community and ascends into the trees forswearing to never descend. His younger brother Biagio narrates from the sidelines and recounts for his lucky readers the life and times of a boy turned man and doggedly remains independent throughout the course of the Enlightenment and the sweeping democracy that follows. 
    Cosimo’s development permits him to see the world in ways orthodoxy take for granted: his food, clothes, bathing, (ahem) waste all have to be taken care of without ever having to touch the ground that seems to only control him. As he develops this system of utility, he also develops a system of values that differ from the stodgy monarchy governing Europe. His Rousseauian attitude guides him to see models of nature as more sustainable and fulfilling than the aristocratic belief that nobility is a birthright. Rather than seeing the past as a portent of the future, Cosimo makes the radical step to climb into the impossible and like a paragon of his beliefs, uncovers a new sense of the future that presages the independence of his native Italy to come - along with Western Europe and the world as a whole.
    The story is simple and the language earthy, but the allegorical quality of Baron asks questions of what’s at stake when we decide to push back at what’s given us, and also what we lose when we insist on ideas that inevitably compromise our relationship to other people that don’t fit into them. For those interested in Calvino’s output, Baron is the place to start. For those looking for a story about escape with swashbuckling yarns, amorous escapades, philosophical fables, fantastical odysseys and - well you get the idea - pick it up!

  • Philthy Talk #3: Tyler Chandler & Nick Meyers (Dosed)

    Overview

    For this episode Phil talks over the phone with the makers of a new documentary called Dosed, which follows the journey of an opioid addict, Adrianne, as she recovers from trauma & addiction thru psychedelic therapy using magic mushrooms and iboga. They discuss the challenges of finding Adrianne treatment, and the effectiveness of psychedelics in helping their friend deal with heavy psychological & physical issues. Eventually the film crew and Adreanna found themselves deep inside an underground culture long neglected by mainstream medical institutions - just in the nick of time.

    Dosed will be screened in Billings, MT as part of the Montana International Film Festival on Friday 9/20 at Arthouse Cinema and Pub. 4:30-6:00pm. Come hang out!
