    In my last episode, I questioned use of the word "accidents," which take focus away from the hazards that cause them. Why? Because hazards can be fixed. I'll give you some real-world examples of good places to start in this Episode 241: TANA, ATU Edition.

    There Are No Accidents

    There Are No Accidents

    For too long, the question of what is “safe”—and who should take the blame when it isn't—has been muddled in the name of profits.  Maybe we should avoid the word “accident” itself.  I'll explore that question in this Episode 240: There Are No Accidents.

    What I Do With The Mad That I Feel

    What I Do With The Mad That I Feel

    My show is reactive: things happen, and I react to them.  This happened recently when the number and tone of commercials in my podcast feed spiked.  I cover this and speculation on why it happened in this Episode 239: What I Do With The Mad That I Feel.

    The Third Estate Rising

    The Third Estate Rising

    Politics in America comes down to the DEMs vs. the GOPs, right?  One represents wealth, and the other claims the hearts of regular people, right? Well, it’s more complicated.  I'll explore this not so much in this Episode 238: The Third Estate Rising.

    We all suspect our devices are increasingly using their microphones and cameras to snoop on us.  Over the years, I’ve explored that suspicion.  I’ll go over some of that history, and finish with some news, in this Episode 237: Spare Me The EULAgee!

Psychic contagion antidote.

Why is this podcast not more popular? Jim has created a very entertaining and informative show here, a veritable antidote to the tawdry digital landscape of brain dead advertising which insidiously infects us all. Clever inoculation to corporate psychic contagion. Well done sir! Thank you for creating this!!
