Our last podcast of the year!
This week, we're back in the swing of things just in time to send you off for 2015. After watching our Best of Paris coverage last week, get a little glimpse of what's to come for the global climate movement in 2016. Also, I promised a while back that we'd get back to the Chamber of Commerce, so let's dig through the history of this corporate low life scum. And finally, Agunda Okeyo talks art and activism from the global, black female perspective. But first, inspired by Paris, let us walk on silent ground.

Last week, we took to the streets of Paris to bring you updates from the ground as activists responded to the idle talk of the UN climate summit.

This week, let's use some common sense and talk about the rights of man. Next up, Recycled Propaganda, pure white low life scum, grab a seat at the middle east dinner table and from Paris to the globe, climate change can be slowed, if we make it so. But first, life is meaningless – like a blank page so get a brush, a crayon, a pen and paint your way.
**NOTE: there won't be a podcast next week as we'll be in Paris covering the activist response to COP21. We will have a best-of episode the following week. In the meantime, stay up to date via occupy.com/actout

Next, inaction is dangerous game, Stuart Schuffman aka broke ass stuart talks living cheaply and running for mayor, and finally, opt outside, don't buy shit and happy thanksgiving.

This week – it's not our fault. What?? – anything, just pick an issue, a problem, a bombing, a war crime – totally not our fault – especially that hospital thing. What's really going on in Afghanistan and what are we doing besides bombing hospitals? Next up, one of the empire's most worthy adversaries, Abby Martin talks about her new show, corporate media and artistic outlets. And finally, I'll probably get shot for saying this but the NRA is more than worthy of a low life scum award. But first, it's just another Monday in the machine.

Finally, peace in the middle east might not be a reality but the Iran deal could be – thanks to the tireless work of activists like Alli McCracken, director of Code Pink.

It’s our 6 month anniversary! And we’re celebrating with whistleblowers - because everyone loves a whistleblower! From Chelsea Manning to John Kiriakou, we’re breaking down the lunacy of charging whistleblowers as spies and giving you the tools to help support those who speak out against injustices in our government. Next up, let’s take a trip to England where the world’s most disappointing theme park has just opened, and believe me, you’ll wanna see it! Then Silent Bill gives us a rundown of the Secret Society of Super Villain Artists - doing good and having fun while doing it. And finally, here’s how you can join the fight to stop fighting and let diplomacy prevail over war. #NoWarWithIran. But first, we gotta go to the emergency room.
