The Storm Returns: Protests, Justice in the Moment, and Podcasting
from Shades of Jade Podcast · host Sam Wooldrik
In this engaging return conversation with Michael Storm of Toward Anarchy, hosts Sam and Michael dive into the realities of podcasting, the growing role of AI in art and creativity (including Michael's hands-on experience training early language models), the frustrations of social media account suspensions, and why Michael avoids generic life coaches in favor of fascinating guests. The discussion turns deeper into Michael's anarchist perspective on voting, the failures of the education system, self-defense and justice (especially regarding predators), the dynamics of protests like Occupy Denver and anti-ICE actions, and the difference between organic movements and paid agitation. Packed with candid insights, personal stories, and Michael's signature wit, this episode is a thought-provoking mix of podcast life, culture, and liberty-minded philosophy.- Check out Michael’s show here: https://www.towardanarchy.com/ - To find all my deals, visit: https://mydeals.page/7fu7 - Want to be a guest on Shades of Jade Podcast?
