    "Healing the Political Divide" with Bill Shireman

    Bill Shireman is a republican environmentalist and activist dedicated to supporting solution-based politics. He is the co-author of In This Together: How Republicans, Democrats, Capitalists and Activists are Uniting to Tackle Climate Change and More and the Founder and CEO of Future 500. We talk about how our political system is designed to be ineffective, encourages us to fight with each other and will lead to the ongoing destruction of our lives and planet.  We talk about how we the people can and must take responsibility for fixing this system. It is time for us to realize that we are giving all of our power to the government and to businesses, but that they don't really exist. It's all people. A vast majority of us are eager and able to find solutions to our problems. We talk about complex systems, economics, the future of democracy and the fundamental importance of listening.  Episode Page: fractalfriends.us/fractalfriends/bill-shireman Bill Shireman: www.inthistoghetheramerica.org www.future500.org Duncan Autrey: linktr.ee/fractalfriends Music: "Cripto Tango" by Tanghetto

    "Solutionary Love in America (and the World)" with Alixa Garcia

    In this episode I talk with Alixa Garcia, a musician, poet, visual artist, filmmaker, activist, and educator. She is a visionary and radical solutionary of our time. Along with Naima Penniman, Alixa co-created the amazing duo Climbing Poetree. For 17 years, Alixa and Naima have dedicated themselves to “harnessing creativity as the antidote to destruction” through music, poetry, and popular education.    In this conversation, Alixa and I talk about the power of art to address intersectional social and environmental themes, and how art can give audiences a lived understanding of their interrelatedness. Alixa expands the traditional idea that “hurt people hurt people” and emphasizes the fact that "healed people heal people.” This episode reminds us of the power of forgiveness and the necessity of healing our own inner wounds in order to become more effective at healing the world. This episode features the exclusive global debut of “The American” written by Ryan Amador featuring Alixa Garcia. It's coming out soon on BioSoul Records.

    "Thinking Globally and Legislating Locally" with Cheryl Davila

    Cheryl Davila is an elected member of the Berkeley City Council. Councilmember Davila is currently up for reelection and this conversation provides an intimate window into the experience of an elected representative who is working at the local level to address global and national issues while also communicating directly with the people she represents, who are also neighbors, family and friends. In this conversation we talk about her experience as a passionate yet common citizen coming into politics an outsider, and the tension between being a voice for her people and the pressure to play political games. We talk about her vision for laying the foundations for an economic and cultural recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, while also addressing racial justice, climate change, demilitarizing the police and addressing homelessness. We talk about the need of all legislators to make difficult short term choices that also support long term change. While so much of the United States is paying attention to national politics, it is actually the local politicians like Councilmember Davila that are making the decisions that affect our day to day lives.Wherever you are, I hope that this conversation inspires you to reflect deeply on the importance of local politics during this election season. I hope it helps you remember that politics is made up of people like you and me. Your voice matters. So speak up, talk to your representatives and please vote.
