KMO welcomes author Dmitry Orlov back to the program for a discussion of keeping people fed in times of turmoil and for a reading from Orlov’s soon-to-be-published book, Reinventing Collapse: The Soviet Example and American Prospects. After that, James H. Kunstler, author of The Long Emergency: Surviving the End of Oil, Climate Change, and Other Converging Catastrophes of the Twenty-First Century, drops by to talk about the fate of surburbia in the post-petroleum era.

Dmitry Orlov appeared in C-Realm Podcast episodes twenty and twenty one.

Toward the end of this episode, I make reference to an interview that I heard with Michael Tsarion on Red Ice Radio.

Also, toward the end of the program, I read a passage from American Vulgar: The Politics of Manipulation Versus the Culture of Awarenessby Robert Grudin about physical and spiritual survival.

I took the Terence McKenna clip that I played between the interviews with Dmitry Orlov and James H. Kunstler from Episode 119 of Lorenzo's Psychedelic Salon: "A Crisis in Consciousness." (No links because that page seems to be broken at the moment.)
