    ⁠#160: A Nation of Shopkeepers (ft. Dan Evans)⁠

    "A Nation of Shopkeepers explores the unstoppable rise of the petite-bourgeoisie, one of the most powerful, but underexplored, classes in modern society." Our discussion with Dan covers: Stalled social mobility and bullshit jobs, who the petite-bourgeoisie are (traditional & new), the threat of losing social status and Dan pushes back against the idea of the "99%". We also cover definitions of class, class boundaries and class as culture. - Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/itsnotjustinyourhead Email us with feedback, questions, suggestions at itsnotjustinyourhead@gmail.com. -- Harriet’s other shows: WBAI Interpersonal Update (Wednesdays): https://wbai.org/program.php?program=431 Capitalism Hits Home: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPJpiw1WYdTNYvke-gNRdml1Z2lwz0iEH -- ATTENTION!

    ⁠#157: Negative Philosophy, Utopia and Contradictions (ft. Bill Cashmore)⁠

    "We Hear Only Ourselves is a study of utopia and its contradictions. If a  future beyond capitalism cannot be imagined, what is the place of  utopia today? The answer, Cashmore argues, lies beyond either idle  speculation or merely hopeful optimism. We Hear Only Ourselves seeks a  concept of utopia which is strengthened, not undermined, by its  contradictions. From the dialectics of the Frankfurt School to the  energetics of resistance in the writings of the Black Panthers, this  book draws on a wide range of thought to offer a new concept of utopia,  one adequate for our present moment."

    #156: Here Be Monsters - How to Fight Capitalism Instead of Each Other (ft. Rhyd Wildemuth)

    Is identity based politics a weapon that has been used to 'divide and conquer' the left? We are joined by the author of the rather spicy book 'Here Be Monsters'.  We discuss the suppression of class understanding, the consequences of organizing around identity, and the revealing use of identity based language by Goldman Sachs, the CIA and the US military: a few players can change but the game must stay the same. Rhyd makes the case for organizing around shared material conditions and the power of unlikely friendships that come from such struggles. "Rhyd Wildermuth reveals the roots of current identity conflicts and political contradictions in feminism, anti-racist theory, Marxism, Frankfurt School theorists, and the many other leftist attempts to put the world back into balance."

    #155: Life Coaching Inc (ft. Ronald Purser)

    Famed author of 'McMindfulness' returns to the podcast to discuss his latest article 'How the Life Coaching Industry Sells Pseudo-Solutions to Our Deepest Problems': "The cultural pressures to become a self-made individual have intensified at the same time that sources of social support have decreased. Enter the life coach." We discuss the many issues surrounding life coaches, credentialism (or lack of it) and how the industry is underpinned by the deeply flawed 'science' of Positive Psychology (and founding father Martin Seligman's troubling statements).

    #154: The value of Pessimism (ft. Rachid M'Rabty)

    "It's time for the Left to consider the pessimist a helpful guide out of the somnolence of capitalist realism." We dissect ideas and misunderstandings around optimism & pessimism, and how pessimism is a fundamentally critical position, whilst optimism breeds hubris and complacency. We discuss the cruelty of optimism, how self destruction can often be an act of autonomy against an unhealthy environment - aka the optimistic delusion of capitalists - and the utopian concept of "Not This".
