Bette Dangerous ‘Speakeasy’ Registration

Looking forward to seeing paid members Sunday, 2/26, 4 pm PT, to meet our guest Jen Senko, director of the “Brainwashing of My Dad”

I spent yesterday gathering up my reporting from a year in war, while also offering some new reflections. Please have a read or a listen - the pod versions are unlocked for everyone.

There is something powerful about reporting on the ugliness of war while mother nature is showing us who’s really in charge - I woke up to shocking images of flooding in my neighborhood and surreal snow dumps, a reminder that we are all guests on this earth. Even the birds are quiet this morning as they assess the damage.

I am working on an investigation inspired by an interview with Jen Senko, the award-winning author and filmmaker of The Brainwashing of My Dad. Older adults have been the target of the right-wing industrial outrage complex, and we have a job ahead of us deescalating them. Paid members will have the opportunity to meet Jen at our ‘Speakeasy’ Zoom, 4 pm PT - that’s California time.

I’m sure many of you saw the latest edition of When Qarens Attack, and until we do something about Fox News, and the various tech platforms that are straight radicalization channels, I believe these pod Qarens and their male counterparts will continue to proliferate.

This is an invasion of the body snatchers - as Jen Senko said on RadPod. Have a listen to our interview with her, and please consider watching her film and supporting her work.

Bette members, please register at the link below - scroll all the way to the bottom - for our ‘Speakeasy’ Zoom with Jen. If you are not yet a paid member, please consider becoming one. For the price of a dinner out, you’ll get an annual subscription to news delivered daily that is not sponsored by a billionaire, dark money, or hedge fund. Corporate news has been part of the fascist creep - and I am working hard to be a counterweight to bullshittery. For monthly subscribers, it’s the cost of a Venti vanilla latte with oat milk plus tip. I hope my news is just as tasty.

🤍
