This episode is hosted by Trevor. Today we have Colin Broadmoor to talk about his new article The Hungry Ghost of Late Capitalism, fandom in general and how capital and empire have weaponized fandom to push the narrative of buying their brand as an act of identity. Colin is a contributing editor & cyber-culture analyst for Blood Knife Magazine . Blood Knife Magazine is a digital magazine about cyberpunk, sci-fi, horror, neon, knives, blood, and capitalism.
Co-produced & edited by Aaron C. Schroeder / Pierced Ears Recording Co, Seattle WA (www.piercedearsrec.com). Opening theme composed by T. Beaulieu. Closing theme composed by Dustfingaz (https://www.youtube.com/user/TheRazhu_)
