Every few weeks, it seems, another example of so-called cancel culture is dominating the headlines and trending on social-media platforms. The refrain “you can’t say anything these days” has become a slogan of cultural politics, particularly on the right. And yet there’s a wide gulf of opinion on what the term “cancelling” means—and whether the phenomenon even exists. In this special episode, we examine the issue with Representative <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/tag/alexandria-ocasio-cortez">Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez</a>, the YouTube video creator Lindsay Ellis, the comedy historian Kliph Nesteroff, and the writers Jay Caspian Kang and William Deresiewicz.

Peloton's Executive Shuffle, Peter Thiel's Meta Exit, and the Future of Fintech with Jeremy Allaire

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss one of the most celebrated thinkers of the twentieth century. Walter Benjamin (1892-1940) was a German Jewish philosopher, critic, historian, an investigator of culture, a maker of radio programmes and more.  Notably, in his Arcades Project, he looked into the past of Paris to understand the modern age and, in The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction, examined how the new media of film and photography enabled art to be politicised, and politics to become a form of art. The rise of the Nazis in Germany forced him into exile, and he worked in Paris in dread of what was to come; when his escape from France in 1940 was blocked at the Spanish border, he took his own life.

In Our Time

The fight over the filibuster brings up some deeper questions that we as a country are facing. How do we make space for disagreement without ending up at a stalemate? Can we use the tools given to us by previous generations without turning them into weapons? And how do we decide which parts of our system should be changed – and when it's time to change? The filibuster can hold legislation hostage, stop bills from ever reaching the Senate floor, and lead to hours-long speeches in Congress, but it can be hard to understand what a filibuster actually is, why we have it, and how it impacts the country. In this episode, we look at how the ongoing battle over the filibuster's future is in some ways a battle over its past.

Black Educators matter because “being educators is in our history.”

“Black teachers are an endangered species and we’re at risk of being eliminated.” - Beverly Cole (1986)
Born and raised in Alton, IL, Tiffany Smith’s humble beginnings started in the projects. When they moved into a house, she recalls a close knit, protected Black community. Later she witnessed White flight, although race wasn’t a prominent factor for her growing up. In fourth grade, she recalls a teacher that took a liking to her and would take her home to play with her daughter. In high school, Tiffany was a regular teenager, but she realized she wanted out of Alton. Northern Illinois University was her ticket out! She didn’t know what she wanted to major in but after babysitting her twin cousins, she realized she loved kids and early education was the way to go.
“Live your life by design and not default.”
From humble beginnings to teaching abroad, Tiffany spent 10 years in early education, teaching in IL, MN, Morocco and Abu Dhabi! She’s now getting her PhD in Organization Development Policy & Development asking how we can keep African American teachers in education. She’s still developing her role in this space but envisions contract work partnering with schools in the recruiting, retention and restoration of Black educators. In her experience abroad, she enjoyed the shared sense of identity amongst the many shades of melanated people, and how they connected because of their differences. She wonders of a future where we don’t have to think about race. Tiffany hosts a podcast, “Abroad in Education”, speaking with African American EdPats about their experiences working internationally.

Sleep Bedtime Story - Gulliver's Travels

No dish of General Tso's, chow mein, or beef and broccoli is complete without a fortune cookie at the end. In fact, factories churn out an estimated *three billion* of these folded confections every year, mostly for the U.S. market. So how did fortune cookies become not just a quintessential part of Chinese takeout, but also an American cultural icon? This episode, we crack open the history of the fortune cookie to get at the conflicted origins—or, at the very least, the winning lottery numbers—hidden within. With the help of author Jennifer 8 Lee, we trace the origin of this oracular cookie back in time: from a court case pitting one set of cookie pioneers in San Francisco against their Angeleno rivals, all the way to the tiny town that may have started it all...a town that's (gasp!) not even in China! Your fortune today: listen carefully, and all will be revealed.
