Australians came to the ABC's The Killing Season in droves, their fascination with the Rudd-Gillard struggle as unfinished as the saga itself. Rudd and Gillard dominate the drama as they strain to claim the narrative of Labor's years in power. The journey to screen for each of their interviews is telling in itself. Kevin Rudd gives his painful account of the period and recalls in vivid detail the events of losing the prime ministership. Julia Gillard is frank and unsparing of her colleagues.

John Taylor Gatto's Weapons of Mass Instruction focuses on mechanisms of traditional education which cripple imagination, discourage critical thinking, and create a false view of learning as a byproduct of rote-memorization drills. Gatto's earlier book, Dumbing Us Down, introduced the now-famous expression of the title into the common vernacular. Weapons of Mass Instruction adds another chilling metaphor to the brief against conventional schooling.

In How Propaganda Works, Jason Stanley demonstrates that more attention needs to be paid. He examines how propaganda operates subtly, how it undermines democracy - particularly the ideals of democratic deliberation and equality - and how it has damaged democracies of the past.

John "Shrek" McPhee (aka The Sheriff of Baghdad) and guests talk guns, tactics (both in the field and in life), as well as recent books, movies and television shows on related topics.

In 1965, the US government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the 20th century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile. But these events remain widely overlooked, precisely because the CIA's secret interventions were so successful.

You’ve heard of middle America. Big Towns is a conversation for mid-sized America: places too big to be small towns and too small to be big cities. A two-day summit in Lafayette, Louisiana, Big Towns brings together leaders from around the country, hosting conversations with big thinkers about mid-sized city stuff like housing, healthcare, work and quality of life. We help mid-sized cities find ideas that fit.

This book is an invitation, a heartfelt one, to step away from the noise and actually engage in meaningful conversations about America, our America, in ways that feel increasingly rare these days. In our current climate, it often feels like we talk just to reply, rather than truly listen. Politics and money dominate every discussion, steering us away from the core of what this nation stands for. But to uphold the principles of Liberty, Freedom, and those inalienable rights we all cherish, we must relearn how to engage meaningfully. That’s the very heart and soul of American Pie.

You have more power than you think—to ignite real change in America. Millions of Americans feel ignored by a government that no longer seems to listen. Popular policies stall, money drowns out public voices, and the system feels rigged—regardless of who holds office. The question isn’t whether we need change. It’s how.

From politics to prophecy, this is a call to heal, to rebuild, and to reveal the holiness at the heart of the modern State of Israel.

The dark arts have long been part of global politics, but digital systems expand their scope and scale. Yet success in secret statecraft depends on political context, not just sophisticated technology. Lindsay provides a general theory of intelligence performance—the analogue to military performance in battle—to explain why spies and hackers alike depend on clandestine organizations and vulnerable institutions.

Hosted by college students Jaysen and Trevor, The Filibustered Podcast is where real political talk meets chaotic group chat energy. We break down national, state, and local issues with no press pass, no political pedigree — just curiosity, frustration, and a little hope.
