Gare does great reporting. They're a regular host on #ItCouldHappenHere podcast.

#CoolZoneMedia, that podcast's network, has a variety of podcasts that cross-populate guests from other podcasts. That's how I've found out about some of the podcasts outside their network that I now regularly listen to.

#CoolZoneMedia

"Remember when the world didn’t feel like it was coming apart?

Neither do we.

Cool Zone Media doesn’t mince words: we are living through the collapse of the known, and the birth of a new unknown.

Every week we chronicle that collapse, and provide advice and access to vital voices trying to build a better future.

Cool Zone Media is a podcast network helmed by investigative journalist Robert Evans (@IwriteOK) and executive producer Sophie Lichterman (@why_sophie_why)."

From your article:

> The only area where this investment retrenchment and uncertainty is not in evidence comes from the insane capital expenditures for AI computing power, which is propping up the economy almost by itself.

@brianmerchant had a great appearance on KQED's Forum.

They discussed, among other things, that aspect of things, the potential bubble in which the US economy is being propped up by all of that capital flowing into data centers.

Meanwhile, the good people over at It Could Happen Here dive into successful efforts by #noDesertDataCenter to block an Amazon data center in #Tuscon AZ of all places.

Are any of the #coolzonemedia folks on Mastodon? Or at least have their Bluesky accounts bridged?

Do iHeartRadio podcasts break all the time for other people? It's gotta be something to do with the remote changing of ads. I use AntennaePod. Their shows (I only really listen to CoolZoneMedia stuff) always have the worst edits, repeat sections, and totally cut off at the end.

#Facebook and #Meta has not made a right-wing turn. They've always been like this. They've actively promoted extreme RW channels for years.

What is new is that they're now doing it way out in the open.

I strongly suggest you listen to the new #BetterOffline #podcast from #EdZitron and #CoolZoneMedia

I love the #CoolZoneMedia crew, but listening to Ed, Robert, and Gar rip on #linux was... frustrating. And yes, I know this is likely just me proving their point.

I found this to be a really insightful discussion on the vibes + economics behind inflation.

Part of the thesis is that “inflation needn’t be so complicated; it’s ‘prices go up’.”

Getting my *shocked pikachu* face for the #tariffs and general fuckery wreaking havoc on the precious, precious US + global economy.

CW: lotsa ads, skip through ‘em.

Absent from nearly ALL of the discussion of #immigration are the voices of the people migrating. So: It Could Happen Here's James Stout journeyed to the Darién Gap:

> As the United States winds down its war and terror, it needs a new nebulous enemy to justify its military spending and to keep the security and surveillance companies donations to politicians in the millions.

> In part, it has found that by simply opening a floodgate of weapons and funding, they can spew forth genocide and death in Palestine and keep some of its income streams. But it needs a more long-term solution. There are only so many Palestinian babies that they can bomb, and we'll run out of Palestinians long before we run out of bombs. The USA needs a new enemy.

> It's a migrant.

> It's a woman I met carrying her child across the mountains. The little Venezuelan girl throwing bottle caps into a cinder block with me to pass the time as she asked me questions about America. It's a 21-year-old man whose remains my friends found in the border on a hot day this September.

I just finished "Raw Dog: The Naked Truth About Hot Dogs" by @jamieloftushelp . I've been reading it slowly, off and on over the past couple months, over the course of which: I got fired for the first time in my life; My covid-era relationship ended in a way that devastated me more than I could have predicted; a dear friend and member of my housing collective has been gone for months supporting their family while their mother underwent and recovers from a lung transplant; I just got fired for the second time in my life. All the while living in a world that is rabidly trying to insist everything is fine and we should all just keep going to work and not worry too much about... anything. Don’t forget to vote!

Really enjoying the #BetterOffline #Podcast from #CoolZoneMedia - a tech podcast puncturing the hype balloons in the industry. Worth a listen.

In case anybody wanted to know just how vile #kissinger was, there is a fantastic !!!6 part series!!! done on the #BehindTheBastards #podcast. I highly recommend this entire podcast but if you listen to only one, this should be it.
