No Illusions #44 – South Africa & Zimbabwe
Posted on 14. Feb, 2012 by Cameron in Podcast
First podcast for 2012! Sorry it’s been so long between shows – this episode took me FOREVER to edit. Blame Ira Glass.
Anyway… I’m fascinated with the long-term effects of colonialisation. We all know that colonialisation is usually a disaster for the indigenous population while the colonial power is occupying their country – but what about once they leave? Does it get better? Or worse? And why?
Today’s show has two guests – Adam Shand talking about his recent trip to Zimbabwe and Petros Kondos talking about why he and his family are emigrating from South Africa.
The No Illusions Podcast #43 – Operation Ajax
Posted on 08. Dec, 2011 by Cameron in Podcast, US politics
Why do the Iranian people distrust the United States? Because they “hate our freedoms”, as Bush said about Al Qaida? Or do they have genuine reasons?
How many of us know the history of America and England’s involvement in the illegal and covert overthrow of the democratically elected government of Iran in 1953?
My guests today are Daniel Burwen & Ash Aiwase, two of the guys behind Operation Ajax, one of the most exciting apps I’ve seen developed for the iPad so far.
Check out the trailer:
I chatted with Daniel and Ash recently about how Operation Ajax came about and how the iPad can make a dent in the Universe.
