Every house is haunted. In each episode of Family Ghosts, we investigate the true story behind a mysterious figure whose legend has followed a family for generations. Grandmothers who were secretly jewel smugglers, uncles who led double lives, siblings who vanished without a trace, and other ghostly characters who cast shadows over our lives in ways that might not be immediately obvious. We are all formed in part by our familial collections of secrets, intrigues, and myths. By engaging with ...

What happens when life puts obstacles in your way that you just have to tackle? Turns out three Rugby League icons might be able to help. Making it in elite sport, staring down the competition, overcoming challenges in the game and in life after rugby, Adrian Morley, Shaun Lunt, and Barrie McDermott know what it takes to keep moving forward. From the highs of big wins to the tough calls of retirement, Changing Rooms is about what happens when the final whistle blows — and how lessons from Rugby League translate into resilience, growth, and finding a new path. The conversations are raw and no-filter — stories of comebacks, transitions, and big turning points that show what it really takes to adapt when everything changes. They’re perfect for young people facing life transitions from education to work, fans of sport seeking insight beyond the game, or anyone navigating career or personal change. Join us as we swap stories from the pitch and beyond, and share the lessons, laughs, and honest truths that can help you figure out your own next move. Whether you’re looking for resilience strategies or just some inspiration from people who’ve been there, you’ll get insights that reach further than the game — from the Changing Rooms Squad. About the Hosts Adrian Morley Adrian was never just tough — he was one of the most feared forwards in Rugby League, the first British player to win both NRL (National Rugby League) and Super League titles, and a leader who thrived in the biggest moments. After years at the very top, he knows what it means to push through pressure, face down setbacks, and then figure out who you are when the roar of the crowd fades. Shaun Lunt Shaun’s career had it all — Grand Final wins, England caps, and the highs and lows of playing for some of the biggest clubs in the game. But he’s also been brutally honest about injuries, mental health, and the personal battles that shaped him. Now, he brings that same openness to coaching and mentoring, offering lessons on resilience and reinvention that hit home well beyond sport. Barrie McDermott Barrie built his reputation as one of Rugby League’s fiercest enforcers, a no-nonsense presence for Leeds Rhinos and Great Britain. Since hanging up his boots, he’s carved out a second career in broadcasting, combining sharp analysis with the same humour and straight talk he was known for on the pitch. Barrie’s story is about toughness, loyalty, and how to evolve when one chapter ends and another begins.

"What the hell is water?" Art, music, literature, drama. When the frontiers of human potential slam against capitalist industry, a force that can't be stopped confronts an object that can't be moved. Capitalism twists and redirects culture and imagination into a revenue stream, limiting to its flow the ideas we're allowed have and drowning all the rest. At the nexus of pop culture and "Pop Culture" struggles Superman, swimming against the current. ---------- Special thanks to our Lovable Sidekicks: Better Possible Futures, Kourtney Smith, Walt Lewellyn, Kafka, The Black Casebook's Very Own Nightwing, JD Lunt, Ambird, Mr. Pig from the Intervention, Travis Armstrong, Chris Marks, Wirecats, Sheeee-itttt, VoidTek, Mars Hottentot, Richard Bell, TakoTuesday, Joseph, and Knife Money ---------- Errata: I mention that the Boravians are speaking Czech.

Finally, the definitive Marxist take on Lex Luthor. Just what we've all been waiting for. The strange flavor of 90s foreign intervention, the eventual goal of capitalist policing, and why you should never trust a homeless shelter (it's not what you think) all tie together into the stories of two of the world's most famous mad scientists - one a product of capitalism, the other a perpetuator.

What do heroes leave behind? The answer should be obvious. The contest for control of the world economy entered a new age at the end of 1991. Socialist forces were in retreat as the then-second largest superpower, the USSR, crumbled under pressure from more than 70 years of capitalist onslaught. Its splintered masses would be powerless to defend themselves against instantaneous pillage and plunder by the avaricious. Half a planet away, the ostensible beneficiaries of capitalist success, the US working class (including the writers and artists behind Superman), would find their rights and livelihoods under immediate and vicious attack as well, although you wouldn't know it by asking them. An ideology of righteous violence befits a class of owners who need the workers to fight their wars, and it limits the imagination of a class of workers who need each other if they ever hope to win their own freedom. What do heroes leave behind? More heroes. It's time to grasp what that means. ---------- Issues covered: The Legacy of Superman #1 ---------- Special thanks to our Lovable Sidekicks: Better Possible Futures, Kourtney Smith, Walt Lewellyn, Kafka, The Black Casebook's Very Own Nightwing, JD Lunt, Ambird, Mr. Pig from the Intervention, Travis Armstrong, Chris Marks, Wirecats, Sheeee-itttt, VoidTek, Mars Hottentot, Richard Bell, TakoTuesday, Joseph, and Knife Money ---------- Email: collectiveactioncomics@gmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/collectiveactioncomics Twitter: https://twitter.com/CAComixPod Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/cacomixpod.bsky.social Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/collectiveactioncomics…

Superhero comics are cycles of endless strife, dialectical tides pushing and pulling between too often oversimplified representations of "evil" and "good." As if on a journey from vulgar physical form to enlightened spiritual ascendence, superheroes die and are reborn over and over, with little consideration that this time might be the last. What happens when an economy does the same? How do we allow it to rise and fall like the characters in our funny mags? Like the souls in our bodies?

What does it mean to be "super?" What does it mean to have "power?" The Death and Return of Superman has us asking these questions in an era when it was less and less appropriate to do so. It was also a time of deep unrest, being the first sprout from the seeds of counterrevolution the previous decade. The ostensible leaders of resistance to such reaction were about to take us on quite the merry chase, and many liberals in the US were relieved to be "represented" once again, despite all evidence to the contrary. Join us. Join us as the Man of Steel dies and with him, our tomorrows. We may yet see them reborn.

From oil fields to poppy fields to killing fields, the United States lays claim upon the Earth. Overwhelming force in service of the export of capital requires constant presence and insistent justification.

In the corporate-funded presentation of politics, the actions of a "destined" few among the "everyday" many are highlighted and made to seem necessary and inevitable. This is reinforced by an entertainment industry that delivers these narratives in flashy and convincing ways. This trope of the "heroes" being removed from or above the masses serves only those currently benefitting from our belief in it. Further, any "hero" speaking truth to those in power can be undercut in so many ways, and can never properly represent us. *We* are the only ones who can save the world.

It's a brand new season here at Collective Action Comics! Last time, we cringed as Ronald Reagan molded the world for a capitalistic and mean-spirited Justice League to thrive in. Now, we must stare horrified into the storm of war. New York has been attacked. An oil-rich scapegoat has been chosen. All that's left is for George W. Bush to whip the country into a frenzy of bloodlust, and he knows just the costumed heroes for the job... ------------------------------------ Be sure to follow the show at https://www.instagram.com/collectiveactioncomics/ or https://twitter.com/cacomixpod…

Setup: What do cannabis and kryptonite have in common? Punchline: Comics publishers and US Presidents have no idea what they actually do to people. Today we sit down with senior staff writer for ScreenRant Shaun Corley( https://twitter.com/CorleyonthShore )as he hits some key notes on the history of superhero comics and their often antagonistic relationship with illicit drugs and their subsequently cozy partnership with US law enforcement propaganda. You can find Shaun's interview with comics creator Zack Kaplan here: https://screenrant.com/metal-society-zack-kaplan-new-scifi-comic-robots/…

As an idea, Superheroes are inherently right wing - at least in some regards and with only a cursory investigation. Foremost recipient of this criticism is Batman, and generally rightly so. But is there more to him than the surface-level misuse of capital? The Black Casebook is in the studio with CAC to present Batman as the shifting reflection of many philosophies and many, MANY personal masks.…

Are things really as bad as they seem? No. They're so much worse. In this season finale, we conclude our deep dive into power and influence. We see how the Reagan era truly marks the point of no return for the capitalist world. We'll learn just why we're made to believe that other countries are evil, despite the United States doing everything it accuses our "official" enemies of and far more. Our travels this season have taken us from New York (or possibly Gotham or Metropolis?) to the Middle East to Russia to a small Vermont town with one weirdly prominent cinema marquis and back again. Oh and also we're going to space in this one. They've also taken us through electoral politics, international warmongering, the militarization of the police, and ultimately the complete handover of power from the people to corporations. Not to mention the complicity of for-profit media in normalizing all this unspeakable horror. We've seen this all through the dirty, broken window into the era that is the Justice League of J.M. DeMatteis and Keith Giffen. We could not have asked for a better example of the toxic effect right-wing politics has on even the most "liberal" outlets of pop culture and, eventually, on the most fundamental aspects of our lives. Thank you for joining along the way. We couldn't have done it without you.…

What makes a country "free?" Is it the right to do whatever you want all the time? Some of the time? Within reason? The United States fails to meet any of these arbitrary qualitative plateaus. Is it the right to food? to housing? to basic dignity? The US is lightyears from approaching this definition. Is it the right to be physically subdued by a mind controlled child of unspeakable magical power? Because the US is a nation under the thrall of big business, that's the closest to the truth, unfortunately. ***LINKS TO ACTIVIST ORGS TO FIGHT LA MUNICIPAL CODE 41.18*** --- https://nolympicsla.com/ --- https://streetwatchla.com/ --- https://cangress.org/ (LA CAN) --- https://ktownforall.org/ --- https://dsa-la.org/ --- https://www.pslweb.org/…

Y'ever get the feeling you're just screaming into the void? Have you ever felt like you can only ever express your dissatisfaction by breaking something? Or possibly by performing an ancient ritual to give you an all-seeing eye and the power to shape reality? Your feelings are valid! In this episode, we tackle the idea of the utility of rage and protest, and (importantly) we cover why anger isn't just useful but is also very often *necessary.* Also there's some magic and some punching and a child gets his feelings hurt. The Justice League, baby! Head's up - there's BIG content warning on this one for police violence. Check out the show's instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/collectiveactioncomicspodcast/ Our much less active Twitter account (we really should get on that) here: https://twitter.com/ColComix/ Send us comics you like or hate, and we'll find a way to relate them to radical politics somehow!…

And then you'll make even more money by stealing from the labor of everyone who works for you. But where are you going to put this money? Who's going to keep an eye on it for you?

It's pretty convenient that all of the enemies of the United States happen to be very strong and also very weak at the same time, right? It's also pretty cool that they're definitely not normal people like we are, because they all like the same things and have no opinions, agency, or autonomy. Or is that...us? In this episode, your host discusses some primo examples of American media flailing between panic and patronizing "our" most hated enemy and how the Justice League of the 1980's and its readers were the trickle-down victims of that dissonance. There's also some sweet-ass missiles.…
