The Don Quixote of Fish Biologists | Dave Cannon | #192 HR
My friend Dave Cannon, a fish biologist, recounting his experiences and sharing his views on various environmental issues. As a child, his interest in nature was sparked by fishing and catching snakes, which later led him to a career in fish biology.
He has worked in various capacities, including in Idaho dealing with endangered salmon and steelhead, and facing abuse from ranchers and miners. In this section, he discusses the challenges that biologists face in protecting natural habitats and preserving threatened species. Later in the section, Cannon talks about his efforts to create a movie about ADD and its causes.
He notes that he believes ADD is a dysfunction that needs rehabilitation, and that the structures of the human mind remain unchanged, leading to the same evils being recreated. He also discusses Hollywood's desire for a one sentence logline to pitch the movie and mentions that his movie may follow a non-traditional, scattered format like a Robert Altman film. In this part of the transcript excerpt, the speaker also discusses his vision to make a full-length feature film about a scientist known as the Donkey, a biologist who is passionate about making a difference by reaching the masses in a unique way.
Cannon is facing challenges in finding the right people who are passionate about the environment and mental illness, and who can help him create a compelling story about psychology and sustainability. Throughout this section, Cannon touches on various environmental issues, including loss of biodiversity, bycatch fishing, and climate change. He also discusses the interconnected nature of these crises and the urgent need for action. Additionally, he talks about the term "soul nostalgia," a type of environmental grief loss experienced by those who have lost their home or their immediate or environmental surroundings

Saving the Planet by Going VEGAN! | Jeremy Gregory | Tindakan | #191 HR
My friend Jeremy Gregory speaks about Tindakan, an eco-social justice organization that works to expand the capacity of non-profits advocating for eco-social justice. The organization seeks to inspire positive action in communities through events like concerts, festivals, and workshops. Gregory explains his personal journey to becoming more focused on animal rights and protection as he grew older, inspired by a National Geographic article he read at a young age. He also talks about a new project called the "Global Coffee Solution" that aims to develop sustainable coffee growing methods that do not harm ecosystems or endanger wildlife. Additionally, Gregory discusses the importance of having a positive mindset and incorporating meditation and pranayama into one's daily routine, and the challenges of finding time for activities we enjoy as we get older.

Chris Jeffries Homeless Romantic - Pigs Will Fly
One day time will die
and love will bury it
love will bury it
love will bury it
one of these mornings i'll pop these strings
and kill my marionette
and kill my marionette
i'll beat my dead horse and force him to drink
and blow the wheels off my chariot
the wheels of my chariot
the wheels of my chariot
now i'll never get to heaven
now i'l never get to heaven
now i'll never get to heaven
one day i'll put down my rifle
when i'm too weak to carry it
too weak to carry it
the bullets don't fit in it
one day I know pigs will fly
and it will be hilarious
and it will be hilarious
a priest will marry us
one of these days will turn into night
The Homeless Romantic is a revolving cast of musicians who help bring my songwriting to life. The music is a disjointed poetic look the life of a 21st century vagabond.
Hopping freight trains, dumpster diving, and various forms of petty crime in order to continue traveling and living. The disappointment of a traditional lifestyle, the rejection of everything conformist and the experience over 10 years, going from apathy to empathy.
“If Lou Reed had lived in the ’30s and had an affinity for moonshine instead of heroin, he would sound dangerously close to the delicate rootsiness of what Chris Jeffries is creating. Combining the swagger of Mr. Reed with the bad-luck living and roaring fingerpicking of folk stalwarts like Lead Belly, Jeffries creates a sound that could be plucked straight out of your granddaddy’s Crosley. This three-song, self-titled EP also conjures images of Chris Adolf’s pre-Bad Weather California project, the Love Letter Band, which, like Jeffries himself, was stripped down, slightly psychotic and teetering on the verge of its own classification. Although Jeffries calls on a myriad of influences, he is close to creating a sound that is uniquely his own — and right at home on any chain gang.”

The Soil Food Web | Dr. Elaine Ingham | Agriculture & Biology | #187 HR
My friend Dr. Elaine Ingham explains the concept of the soil food web and emphasizes the importance of nurturing a healthy soil ecosystem for plant growth. The soil food web consists of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, nematodes, and microarthropods, all of which play a crucial role in providing nutrients to plants. By reintroducing these organisms into the soil, plants can communicate their nutrient needs and receive the necessary minerals. Dr. Ingham also discusses the functions of the soil food web, including nutrient cycling, building soil structure, promoting plant health, and preventing the growth of disease-causing organisms. She highlights the detrimental effects of toxic chemicals and pesticides on soil microbes and encourages the use of compost, cover crops, and organic methods to rebuild soil structure and promote a balanced ecosystem. The video also covers topics such as the effects of different organisms on soil health, the importance of avoiding harmful nematodes, the risks of introducing different biomes into compost, and the impact of smoking and cannabis cultivation on soil contamination. Dr. Ingham concludes by recommending experimentation and observation of local conditions to understand and enhance soil biodiversity.

The Conservative CANNIBAL: Austin Harrouff | Matthew Brockmeyer | #188 HR TRUE CRIME
My friend Matthew Brockmeyer discusses the case of Austin Harrouff, a man who in 2016 claimed to be a werewolf and murdered two people in Florida. We explore the myth of werewolves and its potential influence on real-life criminal behavior. We also discuss the issue of class and privilege in the United States, as Harrouff was a student in physical education and came from a privileged background. We also discuss the case of John R. Douglas and Mark Olshaker, who were convicted of murdering five women and two children in a home in 1984. Douglas, who claimed to be a werewolf, believed that he had been cursed to kill children to protect them from evil. The hosts discuss the implications of dangerous mental illnesses and the use of shock therapy as a form of treatment.

WTF is Wrong with Libertarianism? | Vivek Chibber | Capitalism and Marxism #189 HR
My friend Vivek Chibber discusses his journey into academia and his experiences as a left-wing social theorist. He explains how his upbringing and his personality led him to pursue academic research, and how he was fortunate enough to find a good place to do his Ph.D. and obtain a decent job. Chibber touches on the concept of empathy and how it is an inherent aspect of human beings, but notes that it is difficult to build a politics based on empathy alone, as it can clash with our desire to defend our material interests. He argues that capitalism forces us to make immoral decisions in order to succeed, and that success in many occupations requires engaging in what he calls "correctly sociopathic behavior."

What Led to the COUP in MALI? | Martin A. Klein | Professor of History | #185 HR
My friend Professor Martin A. Klein discusses the factors that led to the coup in Mali. The coup was prompted by the soldiers' frustration with their losses on the field and their perception that the civilians weren't providing adequate support. This, combined with corruption, the fall of Gaddafi in Libya, the emergence of radical groups, and racist ideologies held by some groups, created instability in the country. The professor also highlights the involvement of Western powers and the challenges faced by civilian governments in providing support to the military. The coup in Mali is not an isolated incident, as there have been several coups or attempted coups in the country over the years due to various factors such as religious issues, nationalism, and soldiers' grievances.

Laytonville Murder Mystery: Who Killed Les Crane? | Matthew Brockmeyer | #183 HR TRUE CRIME
My friend Matthew Brockmeyer discusses the murder of Les Crane, a medical marijuana dispensary owner, who was killed in his home in Laytonville, California in November 2005. Les was known for his generosity and community involvement, often giving back to the food banks and opening a community center for kids. He operated his dispensary within the legal gray area of those times and had some trouble with law enforcement, including having money confiscated from him. The video explores various theories and suspicious events surrounding the murder, including rumors of a large sum of money, the sudden resignation of Sheriff Tony Craver, the death of District Attorney Norm Roman, and the potential involvement of the police or outlaw culture in Northern California.

What The F#@K are Microplastics? | Dr. Danielle Green | #183 HR #microplastics
My friend Dr. Danielle Green, an associate professor at Anglia Ruskin University, talks about her background and what drove her to ecology. She explains how she fell in love with marine life and the ocean as a child and decided to study marine life to conserve and help save the ecosystem. The conversation then shifts to microplastics pollution in the Falklands, and Dr. Green explains that her research has shown that microplastics pollution in the Falklands is as high as in the UK. She talks about her trip to the Falklands in 2015, where she sampled different parts of the East Island, including some remote little islands off the Falklands, and found high concentrations of microplastics. Dr. Green also talks about the implications of microplastics pollution on wildlife, including seabirds and fish, and how microplastics can affect their feeding and reproductive rights.

The Truth About Anti-Depressants | Robert Whitaker | Mad in America | #180 HR
My friend journalist Robert Whitaker discusses the truth about anti-depressants and the need to bridge the gap between the public perception of mental health and the evidence-based reality. He uncovers the historical perspective on psychiatric treatments and how the long-term studies in the 1960s and 1970s revealed the questionable efficacy of these drugs. Whitaker emphasizes the importance of making the scientific literature known to the public, as studies have shown that individuals who were stabilized off psychiatric medications had better outcomes compared to those who regularly took their medications. He also discusses the ironic truth about antidepressants, highlighting that they do not fix the "low serotonin" in depressed individuals but instead disrupt normal serotonin function and can lead to relapses and dependence. Whitaker argues for a more comprehensive understanding of mental health conditions and the consideration of alternative approaches to treatment.

The World's Most Dangerous Marxist | John Bellamy Foster | #182 HR
My friend John Bellamy Foster, a professor emeritus of Sociology, discusses his journey towards Marxism and his interest in environmental issues. He explains how his involvement in the anti-Vietnam War movement led him to philosophical readings, and how subsequent events like the coup in Chile and economic crises reignited his passion for activism. Foster explains Marx's ecological critique of capitalism and how the concept of "metabolic rift" highlights the alienation between humans and nature caused by capitalism's focus on profit over sustainability. He also discusses the evolution of Marxist theory, the rise of financialization and its relationship to economic stagnation, the changes in the global labor market, and the rise of China. Foster touches on his book "Trump in the White House," which explores the relationship between Trump and neo-fascism. He also highlights the need for a fundamental transformation of society to achieve ecological sustainability, emphasizing the importance of degrowth and planning, and the need to shift towards zero net investment in rich countries. Foster concludes by emphasizing the urgency of investing in saving the planet and promoting sustainable human development, democracy, and equality.

Guy McPherson Ph.D. | The End Of The World | Evolutionary Biologist | #81 HR
My friend Dr. Guy McPherson Ph.D stops by to discuss the end of the world as we know it! Accordion to Dr. McPherson climate change and biodiversity collapse will kill of all human life by 2030. We discuss the different feedback loops that are creating an exponential collapse scenario including heat sinks of asphalt and concrete cities coupled with increased air conditioner usage. We also discuss the history of the greenhouse effect and the scientists who first discovered our role in the climate crisis. We also talk about the greatest comedian and modern day philosopher, George Carlin. This is a hilarious and frightening conversation with a brilliant and compassionate human being!

Ebook
https://www.amazon.com/Killing-Natives-Retrospective-Guy-McPherson-ebook/dp/B0993SCYY3/
This new edition of “Killing the Natives,” critically evaluates the original edition published in 2004, McPherson’s book focused on cultural criticism. Nearly two decades of hindsight, along with the subsequent accumulation of evidence, allows for an important retrospective analysis. Earth is now experiencing a Mass Extinction Event, abrupt climate change, and the ongoing needs and desires of nearly eight billion people. Excerpt:"I think the original version of Chapter 1 has held up quite well since it was written. I was naïve about several topics when I penned Chapter 1 some two decades ago, yet the basic ideas I was attempting to transmit are still important and timely.It has become increasingly clear that we have failed in our, “responsibility to use our wealth and power to preserve—rather than exploit—other cultures, languages, and species.” The United States has not served as, “stewards of the world’s capital of natural and cultural resources.” Quite to the contrary, the United States has led the pursuit of life-destroying disaster capitalism.""Killing the Natives" connects the world of economics, the government, and social justice -- three enterprises that are inextricably linked despite the appearance given by laissez-faire economic policies. The intersection of environmental protection, social justice, and the human economy represents rich but essentially uncharted territory.

A Journey Inside the Mind of Dogs | Clive D. L. Wynne Ph.D. | #176 HR
My Friend Clive D. L. Wynne discusses his research on marsupial mammals in Australia, highlighting the cognitive abilities of species like quokkas and fat-tailed dunnarts that are often considered unintelligent. He also emphasizes the importance of early life experiences and socialization in shaping a dog's behavior and ability to form relationships with humans and other animals. Wynne talks about the motivation and trainability of dogs, debunking the misconception that all dogs are primarily motivated by food rewards. He also explores the fascinating ability of dogs to understand human pointing gestures and shares a study that shows how quickly dogs can learn this skill. Additionally, Wynne underscores the need for responsible dog ownership and advocates for adopting from shelters or reputable sources rather than supporting puppy mills. He discusses the history of the dog-human relationship and the origins of domestication, as well as the role of dogs in the lives of historical figures. Overall, Wynne provides insights into the minds of dogs and challenges common misconceptions surrounding their intelligence and behavior.

The Gilgo Beach Serial Killer | Matty Brockmeyer | #168 TRUE CRIME HR
My Friend Matty Brockmeyer stops by to discuss The Gilgo Beach Serial Killer case, which took place on Long Island, New York, involved the targeting and murder of sex workers. The investigation began when Shannon Gilbert, a missing sex worker, was heard pleading for help. Eventually, 11 bodies were discovered, with four linked to a suspect named Rex Heuermann. Heuermann, an architect, was identified through the use of burner phones and his presence at crime scenes. DNA evidence, including a hair found on a piece of burlap, also linked him to the crimes. The serial killer's disturbing Google search history, interest in violent pornography, and potential mafia involvement were discussed. The possibility of multiple serial killers in the area and the correlation between serial killers and hunting were also explored. Additionally, there was speculation about the potential involvement of Heuermann's husband in the murders due to his wife's absence during the crimes.

A Conversation with Sage Francis | Hip Hop Legend | #167 HR
My Friend Sage Francis discusses his experiences touring in Germany and the unique dynamics he encountered with the German audience. He initially felt that the crowd was disengaged and unresponsive, but after his performance, he realized they were just being respectful and showed their appreciation individually. He also mentions that Germany has a strong hip-hop culture and love for graffiti. However, he found it increasingly difficult to promote his shows and engage with fans on social media in Germany due to a lack of social media engagement and the use of different platforms.
Despite these challenges, he still has a love for Germany and would like to return in the future. He also briefly mentions some other countries he has toured in and highlights the beauty of Iceland's landscape. Sage Francis also touches on his collaborations with different artists, highlighting his favorite collaboration with Yann Tiersen on the song "The Best of Times."
He expresses his preference for working in an insular and solitary manner and the abundance of beats he currently has waiting for him. Despite having multiple projects on the back burner, he hints at the possibility of releasing new music in the near future. Additionally, Sage reflects on the responsibilities of fatherhood and how it initially seemed like a daunting challenge, but is grateful for the experience. He also discusses how he and other artists challenged the ego-driven nature of hip-hop by introducing vulnerability and different topics into their music.
Sage Francis also talks about using his music as a platform to address and raise awareness about political issues, such as his songs "Makeshift Patriot" and "Ubuntu." He emphasizes the importance of speaking up through art and shedding light on injustices.
Lastly, Sage Francis discusses upcoming projects and collaborations, including the Strange Famous Fest he organized in Denver, the upcoming album "A Line in the Sky" by Meter Maids, an album by trademark and mopes called "Ham and Eggers," and his own upcoming album which he is determined to finish. He also mentions the challenges of the streaming era and the difficulties in selling physical products, but appreciates the support of those who still purchase physical copies.

Joshua T. Vogelstein | Using Artificial Intelligence in Neuroscience | #169 HR
My Friend Joshua T. Vogelstein, a neuroscientist, discusses his journey in neuroscience and his research on the fruit fly brain. He highlights the challenges of analyzing connectome data and emphasizes the importance of integrating the connectome with other aspects of neuroscience to fully understand cognition. He also talks about the ethical implications of using artificial intelligence (AI) and expresses concerns about its potential harms. Vogelstein introduces the concept of organoid intelligence and its role in machine learning pipelines, highlighting the need for further research and development. He also addresses the nature versus nurture debate in shaping the brain's connectome and emphasizes the importance of asking clear questions in scientific inquiry. The conversation touches on topics like the potential use of hallucinogens in neuroscience studies, the limitations of these studies, and humans' attraction to change. I have admiration for Vogelstein and his achievements as a neuroscientist and family man.
