KMO

KMO remote-hosts a trialogue between Michel Bauwens, Dmytri Kleiner and John Restakis on establishing a peer-production economy in which economic rents are distributed to every member of a community.

Last weeks C-Realm podcast features an interview with Kevin Carson, following up on themes of ephemeralization and freedom which Carson has recently written on.

KMO speaks with Arthur Stamoulis, executive director of Citizens Trade Campaign about the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which Arthur describes as a corporate power-grab disguised as a trade agreement.

KMO welcomes Kathy McMahon, the Peak Shrink of PeakOilBlues.com, back to the C-Realm to talk about the psychology of predictions…You may be braced for a sudden, sexy collapse, but do you have the gumption to endure the sucky collapse?

KMO welcomes Mark Robinowitz of OilEmpire.us back to the C-Realm Podcast to discuss why both the mainstream political left as well as the right in the United States cannot address the demands of Peak Oil in a realistic way.

KMO welcomes Charles Eisenstein back to the C-Realm Podcast to discus his new book, Sacred Economics: Money, Gift, and Society in the Age of Transition. Charles talks about interest and the economic imperatives that it fosters. If the value of money decreased over time rather than growing via interest, then it would be clear to everyone that the best thing one can do with one’s money is to spend it quickly and close to home. In times of chaos and potential collapse, the best way to preserve wealth is to give your money away to those in need.
