My Name Is My Name is a podcast that focuses mostly on freewheeling conversations with intellectuals within academia and outside. We aim for a tone somewhere between a conference Q&A and the discussion at the bar afterwards. Mixed in will be recorded lectures, book reviews, comments on current events in the worlds of academia, politics, and culture.

Today’s episode (77 mins) features Andrew Dilts talking about his recent book Punishment and Inclusion, how he ended up in political theory, and the relationship between activism and academy. I highly recommend Andrew’s book to anyone interested in understanding American democracy, both historically and where we are at now. At the top of the show I give a rundown on some issues with a recent review of Alexander R. Galloway’s Laruelle: Against the Digital. You can find that review at Review31. Feel free to skip ahead to the discussion with Andrew. The music in today’s episode is again “Farewell to Floss” by The Blue Ducks. Head over to Records on Ribs to support them and other great artists.
