Scene on Radio is a two-time Peabody Award-nominated podcast from the Kenan Institute for Ethics at Duke University that dares to ask big, hard questions about who we are-really-and how we got this way. The show is produced and hosted by John Biewen, along with collaborators, and distributed by PRX.
Our Season 7 series, Capitalism, tells the story of the world’s dominant economic system - how it emerged and evolved over the centuries - and explores how it might be transformed, now that a growing number of people see capitalism as the problem, not the solution. Produced by John Biewen, with co-host Ellen McGirt and story editor Loretta Williams.

well done! sharing...
But what are the limits? th-cam.com/play/PLhH8w0wcKSeDpkunKyRWBkPCcjiEk6AL7.html
Wow, the TH-cam algorithm did not like this series. 😡
I have read it as well as hearing several of her lectures. I have also read William Canton Jr.'s book "Overshoot", and I am an absolute doomer now. Not because I know the future, its because I know capitalism and humans. Ginsberg wrote of Moloch in "Howl"...look at it again.
The only future is Cybernetic Communism…and so it’s not authoritarianism, we need to educate ourselves in system dynamics & ecology
Why is it not authoritarianism if people are not permitted, must seek permission or pay for permission to engage in or pursue activities that physically hurt no one?
In all history, the common folk are gaslighted and lied to by reigning power, be it emperor or king, pope or priest, president or ceo. The reigns now in the hands of a global corporate hegemony. The chess pieces moved around by billionaires. While most go broke sick and homeless.
Do you have one sided view of socialism?
Not at all. But listen to the whole series for yourself and decide.
At least the ending is favorable for a revolution. By revolution, I mean, a transformation. People hear that word and it signals n their heads violence. I think the 21st Century human being is more mature than the 18th century human being that a transition can be peaceful. But again it depends on your Oligarchy and how much of a rotten attitude they have toward social programs. It is their actions that decide how violent a transition becomes. They can never stop a transition from developing because again, it is their actions that make a transition necessary. How is that? One answer is they became capitalists in the interest of landowners and slave owners out of the ruins of feudal and slave societies. Born into the Oligarchies it is impossible to be anything else. Simple enough reason. It explains why every American corporation are run and operated with a patriarchal hierarchy common to all individual slave plantations of the South. The modern police model policing after the methods of slave bounty hunters. So you see, this is so because there was never a transformation of the slave system. It was modified. The whip is replaced with behavior modification... Out of the ruins of slave society came capitalism in the image of a slave society employing part time slaves disguised as the “hired help”. Equal on the outside until you get inside where partners are not equal.
