    On Art and Politics | Benjamin and Marcuse

    Our friends told us our episodes could get kind of boring at times... so we decided to make an episode where we read two essays and discuss them, 'cause that's what our audience wants! Postmodpod is back with its magnetic aura broaching on the sensual, yes we are art, but are we praxis?

    On Celebrity Speeches and Platforms of Passivity

    Originally intended to be an episode on politics and media, your favorite hosts got derailed and decided to stick to one topic and expand upon it. This episode of postmodpod looks at cinema celebrities Bong Joon-ho, Joaquin Phoenix, and Marlon Brando, and what they did to politicize their platforms. Spoiler alert - not enough. Giving a speech isn't enough.

    On Art and Capitalism

    Things postmodpod hates the most, the bidding starts with: "Nationalism!"  "Nationalism going once!"  "Conservatives!" "We've got Conservatives on the left!" "Fascists!" "It's yours! Fascism is yours, don't let them steal it from you!" "Distribution of wealth in Art Markets!" "Ah the artists stole from you, fascists. Going once, going twice! SOLD" In this episode we look at some capitalist b******t, what's new. In this case; Art Markets. How art institutions and rich people use art for financial gain, and the problems it creates for artists and their work.
