Talking the Enshittification of Everything with Cory Doctorow

As Big Tech firms continue to push AI down our throats whether we want it or not, we thought it was an ideal time to sit down with author, Big Tech critic, and intellectual Cory Doctorow to talk about his theory of enshittification.

Doctorow has a way of making complex ideas around Big Tech (social media, AI, and e-commerce to name a few) simple and legitimately funny.

We had a great time chatting with him about how we can return the web to a pre-enshittified era, saving public discourse, protecting ourselves from our AI overlords and more.

This week, Dr. Nola Haynes sits down with Congresswoman Suzan DelBene (Chair, Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee) to discuss why affordability has become the defining issue of the election, what Democrats are doing to win back the House, and why there are no “cookie-cutter” candidates in the fight for Congress.

Together, they explore the expanded Child Tax Credit, lowering health care costs, supporting caregivers, the importance of Black voter engagement following changes to the Voting Rights Act, and why DelBene believes winning swing districts requires candidates who reflect the communities they serve.

After his narrow victory last week in Michigan, Tim went on News Nation to talk about what’s next in this critical battleground state as Dems vie for control of the Senate in November.

This week, Nat, Chad, and Matt examine two stories with major implications for American power. First, they break down the growing concerns over U.S. munitions stockpiles, why Patriot and THAAD missile shortages matter, and how countries like Iran, China, and Russia may be adapting their strategies to exploit America’s political and military vulnerabilities.

Then, the conversation turns to the global energy market, where Chad and Matt trace a series of dramatic oil price swings tied to announcements about the Iran conflict. They explore allegations of market manipulation, why geopolitical messaging can move billions of dollars in minutes, and what happens when war, energy, and financial markets become deeply intertwined.
