AGITATORS ANONYMOUS the Alan Averill Podcast

Has your city turned into an endless procession of cranes building high rises and skyscrapers with unnamed and unseen tenants? all the interesting and curious places in the city razed to the ground to build apartments no one can afford that seem to sit empty or boutique hotels designed for moneyed tourists, artist and locals have had to move out as they can no longer afford the rent....and the character and heart ripped from the place? but would anyone even want that anymore anyway? welcome to Dublin right now, I discuss that and also a new theme tune for the podcast made by AI among other nonsensesupport the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillcheck out the new live Primordial single athttps://open.spotify.com/album/2ICgeQaeDqeRF8n9DoQG3c?si=OBQG399STP-l9wQqx39wbgPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...

As promised todays podcast is a spicey meatball, a sideways, darkly humorous but relatively serious look at Scotlands new Hate Speech legislation, Irelands own version waiting in the wings, why a variant might be coming to a country near you soon, why right here right now and what this means for freedom of speech and civil liberties. Also includes a Kenneth Williams reference and some other tongue in cheek nonsense.....support the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillcheck out the new live Primordial single athttps://open.spotify.com/album/2ICgeQaeDqeRF8n9DoQG3c?si=OBQG399STP-l9wQqx39wbgPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...

This weeks podcast is a statistical indulgence, I love maths and numbers so this is manna from hell! heavy metal hell.....an article came out publishing the most popular metal band from each country via Spotify stats, so I dig into those, what they mean, who cares, and what they say about rock and metals place in streaming culture. Primordial represented Ireland so I mull over that as well and wonder why i didn't tackle all the new Hate speech laws instead.....the pass of least resistance meets my obsession with statistics! support the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillcheck out the new live Primordial single athttps://open.spotify.com/album/2ICgeQaeDqeRF8n9DoQG3c?si=OBQG399STP-l9wQqx39wbgPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...

Continuing on from the podcast of a few weeks ago today I mentally stumble across thoughts on why elements of the modern Western technocratic state shadows the old Soviet system, the new AI Google Gemini image creator, who controls the past controls the future, do you know any European leaders anymore? 2 + 2 equalling 5 and why we need to defend common ground, consensus and freedom of speech....and some dumb Dad humoursupport the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillgo and check out ELUSIVE GOD right here :https://elusivegod.bandcamp.com/https://linktr.ee/elusive_godhttps://www.instagram.com/elusive.god.doom/https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Elusive_God/3540457868https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdhOHm13mrEPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwidefor professional band backdrops or other requests contact :alan.averill@gmail.comVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...

Before we begin part 2 of the why nothing makes sense political discussion let's have a Heavy metal interlude, I'm joined by Joe from Gama Bomb for volume 15 of our random chats about mainly heavy metal but more or less anything. This one covers important business like the price of a pint in Dublin, which one of us used to sniff solvents as a kid, which gig from Irelands gritty past had people being stabbed with syringes outside and what we think of the new Kerry King logo.....support the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillgo and check out ELUSIVE GOD right here :https://elusivegod.bandcamp.com/https://linktr.ee/elusive_godhttps://www.instagram.com/elusive.god.doom/https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Elusive_God/3540457868https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdhOHm13mrEPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwidefor professional band backdrops or other requests contact :alan.averill@gmail.comVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...

Where did the phrase gaslighting come from? are we being gaslit all the time, how do we know when news or media is real or fake? why does it seem to be so difficult to make sense of the world right now and is it going to get better or worse.....I think you know the answer to that one! but what can we do about it? what happened to the mainstream media, journalism, its financial structure model and why deathscrolling is as old as Ancient Egypt! support the show over athttp://patreon.com/alanaverillgo and check out ADVERSARY right here :Alas, a Peaceful Death single/demo: https://youtu.be/bU0o1weE1Is?si=Kg-jQ07ONAbQNPJdBandcamp: https://adversary0.bandcamp.com/communityPrimordial on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6...sponsored byMetal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwidefor professional band backdrops or other requests contact :alan.averill@gmail.comVerminous Serpenthttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl...Dread Sovereignhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4...
