205. How Can You Defend Those People?! Empathy in an Era of Mass Dehumanization w/ Sarah Bennett 23.09.2026 1ч 6минOur society exhibits a suicidal lack of empathy. We are witnessing mass death, violence, displacement on a global scale, all normalized and obfuscated by generations of bourgeois media and propaganda.How do we begin to push back against it in order to fight for a more sane, sustainable, and equitable world? In this episode of Colonial Outcasts we go inside the isolated and near-invisible world of US women’s prisons with former defense attorney and photojournalist Sarah Bennet. She is the author of “Looking Inside: Women with Life Sentences,” a long-term photographic project about women convicted of homicide and sentenced to life in New York State. The book follows them inside prison, after release, and in everyday life afterward, using portraits plus personal materials like letters, drawings, Polaroids, and handwritten notes to show that they are more than the crime that led to their sentences. The project resists stereotypes and asks readers to consider how punishment, memory, identity, and rehabilitation shape a life over decades.This is a challenging topic. Hope you enjoy!Link to Sarah’s book:https://www.kehrerverlag.com/en/Sara-Bennett/978-3-96900-238-4https://www.amazon.com/dp/3969002389?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallback -

Big Bend Betrayal: The Federal Assault on Our Public Lands 16.09.2026 17минOur first Doc! The US Government is building a pointless wall through America's last wild border. This flagrant breach of public trust begins in Big Bend and ends in your backyard. Watch the full documentary with NO ADS at https://www.rfemedia.com/or on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/c/ColonialOutcastsDO NOT be distracted by “the pause.” Bulldozers are tearing through protected desert, sacred grounds, and decades of federal protections along the last truly wild stretch of the US-Mexico border. “Big Bend Betrayal” goes inside the fight between local conservationists, concerned citizens, border communities and a federal government contract awarded to a major Trump donor. You will see how ludicrous this border construction is, and how it is part of a larger normalization campaign to break the protections on all public lands in the continental United States. The end goal: privatize everything. After the midterms on Nov 3rd, the assault will continue… -

199. THE US IS RUNNING OUT OF OPTIONS: Iran, Ukraine, Venezuela & the Crisis of American Power 31.08.2026 1ч 50минA bombshell leak to the Washington post on Sunday, August 31st, demonstrated that US General Officers in the Pentagon are vying for increasingly finite assets and matériel across Combatant Commands, limiting the military viability of interventions in Iran, Ukraine, and Latin America. This episode examines how and why that is. Here is our general outline: Part 1: Russia–UkraineWhy did the CIA Director urgently fly to Russia?The US trying to freeze the Ukraine conflictNATO’s fragilityCan the US rebuild its industrial base?Part 2: Iran, Sanctions & Economic WarfareThe limits of military forceThe new sanctions / economic isolationIran’s capacity to withstand the warIran’s international partnersPart 3: Venezuela & Latin AmericaSecuring Latin AmericaThe Venezuela dealLong-term objectivesChina & multipolarity in the AmericasFinal synthesis:● The three sections ultimately connect:○ Ukraine: limits of US/NATO military power.○ Iran: limits of US military and financial coercion.○ Venezuela: attempt to compensate by consolidating influence closer to home.● Central question: Is the US adapting to a declining relative position—or attemptingto reverse it through increasingly aggressive economic, military and politicalcoercion? -
198.

FOLLOW US: https://www.instagram.com/rfemediaGUEST: https://www.instagram.com/free.palestine.tvLaith Marouf unveils the reality on the ground in defiance of western media's obfuscation.In the wake of an open letter from Western "Revolutionaries" parroting CIA and imperial talking points with the cloaked aim of delegitimizing Iran's resistance against an unceasing U.S. and Israeli global aggression, West Asia is proving its resilience through its ability to withstand desperate attempts to divide and conquer populations in Lebanon, Syria and Iran along sectarian, national or religious lines. Laith speaks on the current status within Lebanon, Syria and the shifting dynamics of power that Iran has managed to assert. These new material changes has exposed western failures in its goals for division and the growing momentum of revolutionary unity manifesting in Lebanon, Syria and West Asia as a whole.Laith Marouf is a long-time political activist, award-winning journalist, and political commentator working in media since 1999.

197. US Imperialism Bad, Iran Regime Also Bad: An Open Letter From The “Left” 26.08.2026 1ч 26минDr. Behrooz Ghamari-Tabrizi, himself a former political prisoner, models what a letter of solidarity written to Iranian political prisoners might look like: https://www.jadaliyya.com/Details/47613/An-Alternative-Open-Letter-to-Iran%E2%80%99s-Political-PrisonersI'd say subscribe to https://www.rfemedia.com/ for the full episode but we forgot to get to Dr. Ghamari-Tabrizi's solidarity letter until the very end. So enjoy the full episode for free!Our argument is not a new one: that western intellectuals who purport to be anti-imperialist often do the work of imperialism by bothsidesing human rights abuses and war crimes, thereby manufacturing consent or at least fostering an information atmosphere of moral confusion so people find it challenging to pick a side. This directly aids and abets both Imperialism and the War State. Enjoy! -
194. Averting Apocalypse: Taking on Climate Collapse in a Hopeful Way w/ Michael Mezzatesta 13.08.2026 1чGet the full episode with no ads at: https://www.rfemedia.com/We really have to talk about climate catastrophe in an non-apocalyptic way in order to get people productively on-side. Besides, there's plenty to be done. The horrifying research I did for this episode might turn me into an environmental activist from a geopolitical position - things are going to get wild. States will collapse, wars will happen. Gone will be the days of carrier strike groups or even drones as global supply chains break down and all the evangelicals will be euphoric seeing that the end is nigh. There are going to crisis cults popping up everywhere - UFO cults, AI machine god cults - 4 billion people could die in the 25-30 years, and the bottomline is that we here at RFEmedia will still be transmitting this podcast and our Thursday livestream, if we live, from the Great Lakes region of the continental United States.Today we are joined by friend of the show, Michael Mezzatesta, a storyteller working at the intersection of economics, climate, and culture. His work reaches tens of millions of viewers each month and is recognized for making complex economic and climate issues accessible to a mainstream audience. He has an economics degree from Standoff university and champions a post-capitalist world. He is the host of the Better Future Podcast, the links for which are in the description.

192. Out of Ideas, Pentagon Crowd-Sources Iran War Planning to Troops: Live Q&A w/ Greg Stoker 03.08.2026 1ч 22минSubscribe to https://www.rfemedia.com/ for exclusive content and updates. It’s been about a 8 months since I have done any sort of military analysis on my platform because it not exactly the best mental health exercise and two and half years of posting everyday was exhausting, but times have changed. I’m getting back into it because things are escalating and the dynamics of modern warfare are changing faster than a lot of people, definitely military commanders in the Pentagon, can keep up with. Also, other conflicts are poised to pop off across the globe. There is also a fascinating lack of acceptance that warfare has been democratized against Imperial military elements like carrier strike groups and large, hard-site military bases, which can now be threatened across vast distances by relatively simple and cheap munitions. Also we really don’t have those because our defense industrial base is about making money, not about force-readiness. So the pentagon is now crowd sourcing to troops for innovative ideas to regain the initiative against Iran while being actively hamstrung by Data center vulnerability in the Gulf. Its tricky. Some Americans may cheer on Iran blowing up Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia and Palantir tech targets in Saudi Arabia and other GCC states due to their massive unpopularity here at home. Some people might get ideas. The information dimensions of this conflict are uncontrollable too so check out our Colonial Outcasts live stream episode about all of this tonight at 5pm EST on YouTube or our primary Platform, Substack.

190. Why Are Tech Billionaires Moving to Argentina? w/ Marianela Pereyra 28.07.2026 1ч 2минCheck out https://www.rfemedia.com/ for the add-free episode. Yes, you can subscribe for free and get ZERO ads.They are moving due to: libertarian leadership, sovereign diversification, and geographic isolation. They fear global systemic collapse, and don't believe in borders or nation states like us peasants. We start today’s episode with some negligible Argentine world cup controversy, then move onto its idiotically colorful anarcho-capitalist president, Javier Milei and his notorious allegiances to both the state of Israel and trans-national tech billionaires like Peter Thiel. The US government wants to use the right-wing government of Argentina to serve as a mini Israel in the region - a bulwark against any left-wing movements in Latin America in order to bring it under the complete influence of the US and Israel. This is a complicated subject, but this initiative is founded on what are called the “Isaac Accords,” which are modeled after the Israeli normalization deal, the Abraham Accords, meant to establish US/Israeli hegemony over all the governments of West Asia. The core question here though, is “why are billionaires moving to Argentina?” Very excited for this episode, we’ve got a great guest and a lot to cover.You can follow Marianela here:https://www.instagram.com/thefuddhist/Source List:https://fortune.com/2026/07/16/the-global-rich-peter-thiel-safe-haven-argentina/https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/7/27/hondurass-hernandez-returns-home-after-trump-pardon-how-it-happenedhttps://www.reuters.com/world/europe/greenland-freedom-city-rich-donors-push-trump-tech-hub-up-north-2025-04-10/https://www.texastribune.org/2025/04/24/starbase-texas-election-space-x/https://www.prospera.co/en -
188. War and Women, Life, Freedom: Interpreting Iran in the Media w/ Sarah In Tehran 23.07.2026 1ч 23минThe Imperial Media wants you to believe that Iranian society is a binary - either the people all yearn for freedom and regime change, or they are all religious fanatics shouting "death to America!"We do not trade in binaries around here. It is time that we speak to someone who actually lives there and understands the Western Media Apparatus. To that end we are joined by Sarah In Tehran, a media studies graduate who works in documentary film, to discuss rabid zionist monarchists and the media bias they promote, what the conversations in Iran are, and what actually happened with the Women, Life, Freedom movement in 2022. The amount of imperial propaganda being pumped into Iran by outlets like Iran International is truly prodigious and clearly resembles the Radio Free cold war model.

187. Elite Panic: New Political Terrorism Watchlist Drops, Are You On It? 22.07.2026 1чCheck us out on https://www.rfemedia.com/ for so much more!It is Wednesday and we’ve got a heck of a show here for ya! Something just happened exactly like we said it would last November when the State Department designated “Antifa-linked groups” in Europe as Foreign Terrorist Organizations. We said it would come back home and be used as a pretext to silence, delegitimize, debunk, and prosecute us or anyone else who challenges the oligarchic power that controls the state.We also discuss the State Departments “Cuba Report,” which has a two-fold purpose: to delegitimize progressives of all stripes as part of a hostile foreign influence network, cut back on freedom of speech and of the press, and to justify the expansion of the national security state. The other purpose is to justify regime change in Cuba with the prospect of direct military intervention. This entire document is a confounding slurry of distorted history and absurd conspiracy theories. It is meant to gin up and invent the reality of enemies within and without while asserting that all of these enemies are connected. However, we know the truth.
