We talk to Johann Hari about his excellent book "Lost Connections: Uncovering the Real Causes of Depression – and the Unexpected Solutions." He discusses the way neoliberalism contributes to depression, the way different cultures and countries deal with it and his own battle with depression. Really important discussion. Trigger Warning: we briefly discuss Ayn Rand's sex life.

related bonus eps: https://www.patreon.com/posts/196-woke-regime-25581357 & https://www.patreon.com/posts/manufacturing-2-25697135 I'm unlocking this episode because it's the 16 year anniversary of the start of the Iraq War and somehow the media and lots of liberals think regime changing Venezuela (under Trump, of all people) is a good idea. Max Blumenthal reports back from Venezuela and talks about the opposition there, as well as AIPAC here and Meghan McCain "crying over AIPAC, which is one of the most sociopathic institutions."
