Bonus: the rest of my Phyllis interview https://www.patreon.com/posts/17870986
Phyllis Bennis, of the Institute for Policy Studies talks about debating John Bolton, that time he helped the Iraq War happen, the undeserved rehabilitation of George Bush, and the problem with the way people talk about Syria.
Quote of the ep: "There are Syrians who are calling for US intervention just as there were some Libyans who were calling for NATO intervention. The problem is, they were wrong. And the fact that they were Libyans, the fact that there are currently Syrians saying it, that doesn't make it right. When people say we have to lift up Syrian voices, that's absolutely true. But Syria is a country of 24 million people. The Syrian voice doesn't exist. There are many Syrian voices. We need to hear Syrian voices but if the solution is just we need a Syrian voice to say what I believe, that's not the answer."

Bonus: Peter Doau's "Get Out." https://www.patreon.com/posts/17365352
Gabe & I talk about the handful of Academy Award nominated films we actually got around to see. Gabe saw one. But that doesn't stop us from being major authorities on the subject. We take a stroll down memory lane and revisit the very scary lessons of Forrest Gump. Then I talk to writer Aditi Natasha Kini about the "White Mediocrity of Lady Bird," and why "Get Out" is so good.

Media critic Adam Johnson sheds light on United States of Care, the shadowy organization whose board members include health industry execs and right wing ex-Senator Bill Frist. Adam breaks down the mission statement's language & reveals how and why the organization takes the wind out of Medicare for All's sails. In our bonus we finish our chat with Adam and hear from health care writer Tim Faust who determines that the organization is the... output of a certain mammal.

Bonus with Gerald Horne https://www.patreon.com/posts/16584864
A funny thing happened on the way to Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I tweeted out a post I'd written a few years ago which was a listacle of "The 11 most anti-capitalist quotes from Martin Luther King Jr." I had no idea people on Twitter would accuse me of "whitesplaining," Martin Luther King and cherry picking his words and speeches in order to find the socialisty or capitalism-critiquing nuggets hidden in his free-market-praising rhetoric. I decided to talk to some experts: historian and comedian Justin Williams and historian and prolific, eminent, scholar, writer, radical Gerald Horne. Williams talks to us about Pan-Africanism, Ghanaian independence, and Fred Hampton. Horne talks to us about MLK and W. E. B. Du Bois. Stand by for the bonus on to multi-racial organize, or not to multi-racial organize: that is the question.
