    QUIT EVERYTHING with Franco "Bifo" Berardi, Acid Horizon, and Kenny Novis

    QUIT EVERYTHING with Franco "Bifo" Berardi, Acid Horizon, and Kenny Novis

    Pre-Order Here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/761928/quit-everything-by-franco-berardi/

    In Quit Everything, Franco Berardi argues that this "depression" is actually conscious or unconscious withdrawal of psychological energy and a dis-investment of desire that he defines instead as "desertion". A desertion from political participation, from the daily grind of capitalism, from the brutal reality of climate collapse, and from a society which offers nothing but chaos and pain.

    Berardi analyses why this desertion is on the rise and why more people are quitting everything in our age of political impotence and the rise of the far-right, asking if we can find some political hope in desertion amongst the ruins of a world on the brink of collapse.

    Ernst Bloch's Utopian Marxism: A New Hope with Jon Greenaway

    Buy the Book: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/zer0-books/our-books/primer-utopian-philosophy-ernst-bloch

    The utopian project lies in ruins, but perhaps in our present moment, there are elements from the history of thought that can provide fresh resources for utopianism. In this groundbreaking introduction, Jon Greenaway explores the work of German philosopher Ernst Bloch, whose complex and challenging philosophy is a primer for a philosophical renewal of the struggle for a better world.

    I met Jack at local bar, and he promised to join me one day to do an explainer on Bergson's 'Matter and Memory'. A few beers later (over several months), here we are! Apologies for the rough interviewer audio; fortunately you can hear Jack loud and clear!

qautrey ,

Great Podcast!

I’ve listened to this great podcast for about a year now. I love all the various guests. The hosts of the show are lively and ask wonderful questions. This is a must listen if you’re looking to challenge your perspective and grow in knowledge!

SpinozaEnjoyer ,

Hit or miss

Like the title of the review says: hit or miss. The hits are great and I get a lot out of them. The other half the time it’s just name-drop circle jerking and you’d get more out of reading Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy articles.

WhatItReallyBe ,

Horrific every level

Pseudo-left edge lords who seek to turn the reality of their class irrelevance into a political program.
