    Breaking the Bonds of Fate: Epicurus and Marx - Pt. 3/4

    In this third segment of a series on ecology and materialism, John Bellamy Foster concludes that across different societies, starting from ancient China, the Hellenistic world, and India, there is a parallelism of class struggles. They involve notions of self-consciousness through production in relation with nature, human freedom, solidarity, and substantive equality. Common to them is a praxis that combines Epicurus\'s philosophy of enough and reciprocity with Marx\'s emphasis on production and transformation. Lynn Fries interviews John Bellamy Foster on GPEnewsdocs.

    The Return of Nature: Socialism and Ecology - Pt. 2/4

    In Part 2, John Bellamy Foster debunks the misconception that socialism and materialism had no role in the development of ecological analysis. His research shows that socialist transformation involves the transformation of human relations with nature, and that the modern ecological movement grew out of Marx’s analysis of the dialectics of society and nature. And there again, the Epicurean strand carries right through. Lynn Fries interviews John Bellamy Foster on GPEnewsdocs.

    Marx’s Ecology: Materialism and Nature – Pt. 1/4

    In this first segment of a series on ecology and materialism, John Bellamy Foster explains how Marx, who was not a natural scientist, learned from chemists, physicists, biologists, and the ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus. Marx then garnered a unique theoretical approach that identifies the causes of the societal and ecological crises we face today. Lynn Fries interviews John Bellamy Foster on GPEnewsdocs.

    The Cold War Was — and Still Is — a Protection Racket — Paul Jay Pt. 3/3

    In part three, filmmaker and journalist Paul Jay turns to the film that brought this conversation full circle: How to Stop a Nuclear War. Jay traces the bomb\'s origins to a lie — the U.S. and Britain knew by 1944 there was no German nuclear program, yet built one anyway to secure postwar hegemony. He argues the Cold War was never really about defense; it was a protection racket that justified permanent militarization, purged the American left, and convinced generations that annihilation was the price of safety. Jay makes the case that nuclear winter research has been buried for decades because acknowledging it would mean admitting there is no such thing as a winnable nuclear war — only a lucrative one.

    Kayfabe Nation: Paul Jay on Wrestling, Billionaires, and the Theater of American Power – Pt. 2/3

    In part two, filmmaker and journalist Paul Jay argues that American politics runs on kayfabe — pro wrestling’s term for the fiction that the staged drama is real. The battles themselves are real enough: the fights in Congress over legislation, the billions spent to win elections. But what’s said publicly — the messaging, the narrative, the story sold to voters — is mostly fiction. The power of finance, the military industrial complex, and the billionaire class as a whole are rarely talked about in mainstream media or politics.

    Who Owns the Stage? Paul Jay on the Illusions of North American Democracy – Pt. 1/3

    In part one, filmmaker and journalist Paul Jay joins host Shalaj Lawania for a personal reflection. Jay argues that Canadian and American identity sit on a foundational lie: stolen land, slavery, and corporate rule masked as liberal democracy. He says most mainstream journalism focuses on the actors, but rarely on who owns the stage. He traces his “red diaper” upbringing, the Cold War myths he didn’t internalize, and the way mainstream and algorithmic media turn politics into a billionaire-run wrestling show while keeping us on the brink of nuclear war. Any honest account of personal identity, Jay says, has to start with knowing the society we live in, how we got here, and the brutal history that continues today.
