my buddies over at @YellowDotStudios have a new movie out called You Need This which is about how consumerism is really f*cking everything up pretty bad.
here's my conversation with the film's director, Ryan Andrej Lough. (The film's producer, Adam McKay, declined to speak with me as he was afraid to answer my hard hitting questions.)
movie is available to watch on the internet NOW. links in description.

comedian and activist @maryhoulie travelled to Cuba recently with the medical aid envoy and joined me to chat about the experience, what she learned in Cuba, and why most of us have been lied to about what's actually going on there.
