KunstlerCast - Conversations: Converging Catastrophes of the 21st Century

Alan Berman is the creator of the Psychohistory Prediction Engine: an open-source map connecting the people, money, and machinery that run things in our world. The site is self-funded with no institutional backers, and free for public use. Berman's essays can be found on Medium / X for free and act as entry points to explore the Engine. I only encountered Alan for the first time a few weeks ago. He's young, in his 30s, and has had an interesting background in martial arts training (the gym he owned was run out of business by the Covid Lockdowns), as well as radio production and a spell as a standup comedian. Get to know him. . . I plan to get him back on later this year. His website is called Moketchups.com.  ("Moketchups" is a gag by standup comedian Dave Attell.) You can find the Psychohistory Prediction Engine there. The KunstlerCast theme music is the beautiful Two Rivers Waltz written and performed by Larry Unger

On this summer break podcast. Dennis Morriseau is an interesting friend of mine with a political history worth recounting. He was the only US Army officer in the USA who refused orders to Vietnam after several in-uniform protests — including one at the White House gate, noted by Walter Cronkite on CBS-News at the time — and he beat the court-martial that resulted.  Dennis went on to run for Congress in Vermont 3 times 1970, '71, 74 .  Bernie Sanders was on Dennis's campaign staff in the '71 election, and we'll hear more about that. After politics, Dennis went on to found and run the popular Burlington, VT restaurant:  Leunig's Old World Cafe (since renamed Leunig's Bistro). He lives in West Pawlet, VT in an art gallery on the Indian River called LOST & FOUND ART. He Winters in Belize.
