in which I tell a story about Mark Twain and oil pipelines before the good part of this podcast begins, which is a great conversation with the brilliant @aprilanson.bsky.social and Alex Menrisky.
Among several reasons to recommend this episode is the lengthy good faith discussion of what fascism is, both during my convo with @aprilanson.bsky.social & Alex Menrisky, & during the Q&A that followed.

Inspired in part by Alex’s great book, published this year by @uminnpress.bsky.social
Everyday Ecofascism (Vandal Live at 2025 Quarry Farm Symposium)
with April Anson, Alexander Menrisky, & Jeffrey Insko

Last month, I gave a presentation on Silicon Valley, energy systems, and environmental sustainability based on some of the work of I've been doing in the area for the past five years. Some of this will appear in Imre Szeman and I's co-authored book on the topic. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGWu...
