You Can't Win


Nov 4, 2019

Mike, our own Professor Pizzagate, returns to sketch a possible history of attempts to dominate the psyche. We start with Foucault's prehistory of psychiatry and the operation of sovereignty and power over time. This transitions into a discussion of the shocking union between professional psychiatry and "mind control" programs like MK Ultra. 

Mentioned: Michel Foucault - Psychiatric Power; Jacques Donzelot - Policing Families;  Colin Ross - The CIA Doctors; Giorgio Agamben- Homo Sacer, The Highest Poverty; Lily Kay- The Molecular Vision of Life.

Intro music by aunti004. Outro: Screamin' Jay Hawkins - I Put A Spell on You.
