Ep 399 - Severance/Doppelganger w/ Justin Rogers-Cooper (PREVIEW)
Manage episode 455360553 series 53771
This week we watched the excellent Apple TV series Severance and put it in conversation with Naomi Klein’s latest book Doppelganger: A Trip into the Mirror World. Both texts explore how the concept of “doubles” plays out in capitalist culture, and we have fun talking about the ways they did (and didn’t) blow our minds. From Klein’s refreshing take on the left’s severe mistakes of the COVID era (and how Steve Bannon greedily lapped up the detritus) to Severance’s terrifying vision of a corporation that aims to replace your entire identity, we take the opportunity to look into the mirror at the selves we make, and that are made for us.
