Breaking News: Crazy Town Joins the Newly Formed Department of Entropy
Manage episode 452207724 series 2491141
Rob, Jason, and Asher talk about joining the new Trump Administration, at least until Elon Musk eradicates it. They explore the implications of Trump 2.0 through three reality-bending lenses – shifting baselines, entropy, and the upside of down – and three ways of responding: resistance, resilience, and regeneration. They decided they couldn’t stomach a fourth R – respect.
We’ve added something new to this and future episodes: VIDEO! If you’d like to feel even more like you’re in the room with the Crazy Town gang, please check out the video and let us know what you think.
Warning: This podcast occasionally uses spicy language.
Sources/Links/Notes:
- Daniel Pauly’s 1995 article, Anecdotes and the Shifting Baseline Syndrome of Fisheries
- Randy Olson’s op-ed in the LA Times, Slow-Motion Disaster Below the Waves
- Video of Howard Dean’s speech with the infamous “Dean Scream”
- NASA’s description of the second law of thermodynamics, the entropy law (Be sure to read it before the incoming US administration repeals the laws of thermodynamics!)
- Thomas Homer-Dixon’s book The Upside of Down
