エピソード
  • PLEASURE
    2024/12/09
    Live, in front of a seductive studio audience, Sarah and Max bring to a climax the first intoxicating season of What Do We Want? (a podcast about what brings social movements together and drives them apart) with an episode on PLEASURE.

    They are joined by dazzling special guests Sita Balani and Zrinka Balo, to explore salacious questions including:
    • Should we prioritize activism being pleasurable?
    • In a world of work and worry, is taking pleasure itself an important form of activism?
    • And in our quest for collective liberation, what kinds of sacrifices can and should we expect of ourselves and others?
    It’s podcasting that goes beyond the pleasure principle and puts its finger right on the most sensitive questions.

  • SHAME
    2024/12/03
    We, an unnamed collective, must sanctimoniously inform would-be listeners that the SHAME episode of WHAT DO WE WANT? (a podcast about what brings social movements together and drives them apart) has been summarily cancelled.
    The hosts, Sarah and Max, have been found preemptively guilty of causing grievous harms to the left by asking questions including: Is pride enough? Should we wield shame? And should we cancel ourselves?
    (Also, did you hear that they invited a response from the scandalous radical writer Sophie Lewis, author of Abolish the Family and Enemy Feminisms? OMG!).
    ...And by the way, “comrade,”… what made you want to listen to this f*cked up podcast anyway? Don’t you think that kind of behaviour is a little… problematic?

  • FANTASY
    2024/11/25
    Why do so many people insist on believing in systems that hurt them?
    Why do so many of us dwell in fantasy, rather than facing reality?
    (Wait, is dwelling in fantasy an option? Why weren’t we told?)
    In this episode of WHAT DO WE WANT? (a podcast about what brings social movements together and drives them apart) Max and Sarah dive deep into the murky waters of FANTASY, desire and illusion to ask questions like:
    • How do we break through destructive ideologies?
    • How can we win arguments (and when should we)?
    • And should we just abandon activism?
    Then we’re joined by veteran Toronto-based activist, movement trainer and editor Sharmeen Khan, who tells us about the state repression that broke her fantasies and what she dreams of now.
    It's podcasting that accompanies you right to the precipice of Mount Doom and helps you throw away your Precious.

    ACTION ALERT! Our guest, Sharmeen, is facing outrageous, repressive charges for standing up for Palestinian human rights. Read Naomi Klein’s summary of the case, and please consider donating to the legal defence fund or signing the letter demanding the charges be dropped.
