Next up, Dr. Austin Kocher comes back on the program to dig into some recent news that didn’t make the news vis a vis immigration, from overcrowding court hearings to expedite deportation to handpicking so-called deportation judges, the cruelty is the point. But there are some glimmers in this world full of triggers, and as always a lot of it has to do with communities fighting back.   Nolan Higdon is a political analyst, author, host of The Disinfo Detox Podcast, lecturer at Merrill College and the Education Department at University of California, Santa Cruz, and Project Censored National Judge.

    The Violation and Capitulation of Higher Education

    This week, the violation and capitulation of higher education. First up, I sit down with Zachary Levenson to talk about the war on sociology and what happens when the academic governing body deems all existing sociology textbooks illegal to teach in the state of Florida. Zach highlights the purposefully vague verbiage of new policies, the anti-intellectualism fueling them, and why educators must never self-censor or comply in advance. Next up, cohost Mickey Huff sits down with Nolan Higdon to talk about his latest book MAGAcademy on how corporatism paved the way for the hostile takeover of Higher Ed. Nolan discusses the neoliberalization of academia, the purposeful devaluing of professors and treatment of students as customers that all predate the current attacks on higher ed. Nolan also warns of the dangers of compliance in advance and the smooth rhetoric of corporate takeovers wrapped in social justice ideologies. Zachary Levenson is associate professor of sociology at Florida International University. He is the author of the award-winning book Delivery as Dispossession (Oxford University Press, 2022). Nolan Higdon is a political analyst, author, host of The Disinfo Detox Podcast, lecturer at Merrill College and the Education Department at University of California, Santa Cruz, and Project Censored National Judge.

    While Corporate Media Focuses on the 24-Hour Wartime News Cycle, A Lot Falls Through the Cracks, Entire Continents Actually.

    First up this week, we welcome back to the program journalist José Luis Granados Ceja to talk about the Greater America plan, and Operation Total Extermination, the latest US policy initiatives for Latin America. José Luis highlights media complicity in framing US relations with the Global South, how Mexico and its allies in the region are responding to these military threats and how the war in Iran is affecting this political landscape. Next up, journalist and organizer Edith Romero talks about corporate colonialism in Honduras, and how the likes of Peter Thiel are piggy-backing on decades of imperialist extraction to create their own sovereign nations not subject to any Honduran oversight or accountability, and how this connects to the oppressive surveillance and anti-human eugenicist manifestations of AI here in the US and globally. José Luis Granados Ceja is an experienced journalist based in Mexico City, co-host of the Canal Once public affairs television program Sin Muros, as well as Soberana: The Mexican Politics Podcast.

    Project Censored – April 10, 2026

    First up, journalist Afeef Nessouli joins the show to talk about the situation in Lebanon, and how corporate media deliberately flattens and dehumanizes in service of US-Israeli regional goals. Afeef explains the complex and interconnected networks of resistance and solidarity on the ground, the tangled web of imperialism, and how Lebanese journalists are, like their Palestinian counterparts, working together in impossible conditions to get the truth out about their situation in spite of compounding and violent censorship. Then, cohost Mickey Huff sits down with former Director of Student Media at Indiana University Jim Rodenbush to talk about his termination. Jim had the audacity to stand up for the renowned student newspaper the Indiana Daily Student when the powers that be didn’t feel it should actually report the news anymore. Jim shares his story and warns of the implications this has on everyone’s access to a free press, from colleges to professional newsrooms. The News That Didn’t Make the News.
