57. This is how we save humanity from climate catastrophe - LIVE SHOW

Season 1, Ep. 57

We live in a time of crisis and catastrophe - and it goes much further than COVID-19. Capitalism is driving the world to the edge, as ever more concentrated ownership, major corporations and Big Finance put profit before human comfort, happiness and even existence. Is the climate emergency going to doom us all?


I'm joined by two brilliant guests - Mathew Lawrence and Laurie Laybourn-Langton, the authors of the new book 'Planet on Fire' - which sets out a new vision for the world, reimagining production, consumption, exchange, work and leisure, "based on principles of equality, deep freedom, solidarity, sustainability and democracy."


Also - how the Bristol's police's claims of serious injuries collapsed, and what that means.


If you're feeling downbeat about everything, this is for you!

  • Jason Arday SMEARS Fall Apart

    09:35|
    Prof. Jason Arday was hounded to death after a media campaign so intense, so vitriolic, so unrelenting, that it went beyond what you’d expect if he was a Cabinet minister guilty of grave corruption or harm to others. But he wasn’t a Cabinet minister, he was a university professor the vast majority of people had never heard of, and he wasn’t guilty of corruption or harm to others.
