Happy 40th! The By That I Mean podcast issues our 40th episode before our 38th and 39th (which will be a double-episode with Chris Godwin!) because reasons.

Asia Coleman rejoins us to address the unintentional hiatus, the rise of #BlackLivesMatter, the need for more new political movements to push legislative change, the inadequacy of body cameras to stop police killing innocent black men, and the right-wing viciousness that won't stop devolving as we enter the 2016 Presidential election cycle.

Thank you for listening to the BY THAT I MEAN podcast! It is a production of the MFP Studio Studio in Los Angeles, CA.

The 37th BY THAT I MEAN podcast wonders why we're stuck in a reality centered around profit and undercompensated labor, and breaks down the various ways it breaks each of us down.

Our reality is still one where men are not equal to women. Our reality is still one where non-white people are still considered less human, or something other than the default of humanity. Our collective models of reality no longer fit the truth of our lives, and so many of our discussions are getting harder and breaking down what should be common ground because we aren't talking about the greater systemic processes at play.

Episodes 35-37 of the BY THAT I MEAN podcast explore the ways in which our entire country and American society have been reorganized around short-term profit and predatory capitalism. You can listen to them all to hear the whole conversation, but any one of them also stands alone.

The BY THAT I MEAN podcast continues to dismantle reality in our 36th outing. My conversation with Ikoi turns to the perils of organizing a society around fear, loathing and naked greed - and the predatory capitalism we must let go to move ahead.

Our reality is still one where men are not equal to women. Our reality is still one where non-white people are still considered less human or something other than the default of humanity. Our collective models of reality no longer fit the truth of our lives, and so many of our discussions are getting harder and breaking down what should be common ground because we aren't talking about the greater systemic processes at play.

These next episodes of the BY THAT I MEAN podcast explore the fictitious nature of our shared dominant realities (the stories we individually and collectively tell ourselves about what is "real" or ought to be). We talk about the vulnerability and emotional nature of memory. We realize that there is one dominant illusory "reality" around which our whole society has become reorganized: the idea that short-term profit is an inherent moral good.

In the 34th BY THAT I MEAN, Ikoi and Seth ignore the political outrages of the week and focus on one crucial subject the US media won't touch: K-12 education, specifically the "school reform" movement. We learn that the demonization of teachers and teaching is being used as a smokescreen to hide the true purpose of the "school reform" movement, which is to profitably privatize yet another desperately-needed public good - the promise of a good education for every American citizen. And of course the Koch brothers are in on it.

The supersized 33rd BY THAT I MEAN podcast is action-packed with news that the news didn't give you. Ikoi Hiroe and Seth Pierson discuss inspiring citizens and politicians in Texas fighting a Republican crusade to legislatively ban abortion, a defense contractor leaking details of the secret government and warped priorities of America's post-9/11 "security" state, and how to navigate the perfect storm of broken systems that currently stand in the way of progress. Finally, we update you on what's going on in Egypt - where a democratic revolution ended a dictatorship, elections resulted in an oppressive religious theocracy, and the theocracy was deposed by a military coup.

The BY THAT I MEAN podcast now has a 32nd flavor and a new host, the excellent Ikoi Hiroe! America operates with broken 20th century systems in the 21st century, and if we don't vote we'll have our ability to control our government taken away from us. We have so much to unpack, and so much to unlearn. The Supreme Court nullified a large part of the Voting Rights Act the day before it killed DOMA, and it may try to destroy affirmative action next.

Seth brings aboard the magnanimous, brilliant and hirsute Chris Godwin for the spirited and wide-ranging 28th episode of BY THAT I MEAN. We struggle mightily to detail precisely how fucked we all are thanks to the sequester and the Republican Party, and we are sickened that our perverse political system is inflicting suffering on poor people while enriching the rich. Our epic conversation is continued in Episode 29.

The tremendous 27th time we convene the BY THAT I MEAN podcast, Seth uncovers another of Asia's many fears. We break down the bullshit fiscal cliff. We then discuss the horrific Newtown shooting rampage, the "doomsday prepper" movement, and the possibility for commonsense gun safety measures to actually become law. Finally we urge Democrats in the Senate to reform the filibuster, to stop Republicans from completely derailing our government.

If the BY THAT I MEAN podcast has told you once, it has told you 25 times: only one major political party in America thinks most of you are worthless scum, and loves democracy so much that they are trying to destroy it. It's time to end that party. Humanity has real shit with which to contend, so get to the polls on Election Day and get rid of the delusional bastards who promise only to make everything worse.

Seth, Asia, and Chris make the 22nd episode of the BY THAT I MEAN podcast a fateful threesome! We don't talk about LIBOR. Obamacare will mostly happen! Asia resents a loveless Ramadan.
