  • (Ep 33) Stop Cop City: True Crime Against People and Planet

    (Ep 33) Stop Cop City: True Crime Against People and Planet
    Sep 13 2024
    What happens when the very land we live on exposes the multigenerational trauma being experienced at the hands of white supremacist state violence? What is it called when peaceful protestors are murdered by law enforcement to protect state interests? How do we respond when even the most “progressive” politicians end up bought out by the very entities they claim to stand against?

    We had to jump through hoops to get this episode to publish for listening -- multiple digital transfers, various friends helping with editing, files mysteriously corrupting. It was worth every second and every helping hand -- in this episode, we hear from powerful organizers and faith leaders on the frontlines of the Stop Cop City movement: Reverand Keyanna Jones Moore, Minister Matthew Johnson, musician River-Michael, and the mother of the late activist known as Tortuguita, Belkis Terán. They share with us a 101 introduction to what's happening in so-called "Cop City" in Atlanta (as just one of many such training facilities in 47 states across the United States of America) and we explore the state's strategy that combines
    • creating more poverty by divesting from communities and unraveling safety net programs;
    • criminalizing poverty with "crack downs" on homelessness, substance use and addiction, etc. and;
    • increased militarization of law enforcement

    *TRIGGER WARNING - this episode contains dialogue related to historic racial trauma, police brutality, state violence, and mental health. Please take care of yourself when choosing to take in heavy content, and proceed with mindfulness.*

  • (Ep 32) Connecting Appalachia & Palestine: Interview w/ Tiara - Part 1

    (Ep 32) Connecting Appalachia & Palestine: Interview w/ Tiara - Part 1
    Apr 8 2024
    Starting off April on the right foot: no fools here, just Chelsea and Tiara sitting down for what was supposed to be a primer on the situation in Palestine, but turned into a conversation that had to go on for two whole days and six hours of content.

    This is the first of the episodes that came from that content, and in this episode, we get to know Tiara better as a fresh face to cohost the podcast with us. She tells us about the grief that compelled her to stand in at a direct action in solidarity with Palestinians in October, and how that vulnerability in sharing her grief has transformed the lives and hearts of her own family members. We do our best to pull on the threads that are woven between Appalachia and occupied Palestine, and touch on the importance of paying attention, holding space, and reciprocity. We start to dig into the geopolitical history of the land and its people that led to the current genocide, but we cover that much more in depth in next week's episode.

    *TRIGGER WARNING - this episode contains dialogue related to genocide, settler colonialism, white supremacy, anti-semitism, and violence against human beings (including children)*

  • (Ep 31) It's All One Big Conspiracy!

    (Ep 31) It's All One Big Conspiracy!
    Mar 25 2024
    SEASON TWO is back, this time with two new cohosts to make the show extra fun!

    In this episode, we introduce our new cohosts that are joining Chelsea on the show: Sierra (from episode 8) and Tiara, two additional loudmouthed and badass Appalachian women to raise hell and make good trouble with us. We declare ourselves a fullblown conspiracy podcast as we touch on everything from Amazon to Kate Middleton to AIPAC to Epstein to the Irish Prime Minister and on and on. As we tend to do in the show, we bring it all full circle around the idea that our liberation is inherently interconnected and none of us are free until al of us are free.

    *DISCLAIMERS: This podcast SHOULD NOT be considered legal advice at all, even if one of our hosts works for a Public Defense office. If you need legal office, please reach out to a lawyer. Also, this show is for entertainment purposes only; all of our comments are based on the reporting of others and solely represent our opinions, which are not to be represented as factual when we comment on individuals, organizations, or structures.

    *TRIGGER WARNING: We cuss a lot, so you probably don't want to listen to this on the speakers at work. This episode in particular touches on topics which may be sensitive for some individuals including gun violence, state oppression, and the genocide in Palestine.
