514: Policing Bodies: Law, Sex Work, and Desire in Johannesburg
Sex work occupies a legally gray space in Johannesburg, South Africa, and police attitudes toward it are inconsistent and largely unregulated. This results in both room for negotiation that can benefit sex workers and extreme precarity, where the security police provide can be taken away at a moment's notice.
There is growing concern about the appropriate role for police, if any, in society. Many people around the world are examining policing in response to incidents of violence within marginalized communities. In recent decades, police have taken on additional responsibilities as administrators of social welfare and adopters of community policing.
Yet, it remains an open debate whether policing and criminalization bring additional security and human rights protection, especially for historically stigmatized populations. Within this social context, Thusi examines the policing of sex work in Johannesburg, and whether a human rights approach to sex work should ever contribute to more policing, even if the policing is limited to sex workers’ clients.
Challenging discourses about sexuality and gender that inform its regulation, Thusi exposes the limitations of dominant feminist arguments regarding the legal treatment of sex work. This in-depth, historically informed ethnography illustrates the tension between enforcing a country's laws and protecting human rights.

GRID-
grid-locked-is-the-power-grid-america's
Have you ever wondered what would happen if the US power grid failed?
Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "The finest heart and health supplement in the world!": https://www.briannicholsshow.com/heart
In this episode of The Brian Nichols Show, we explore that question and more with special guest Robert Bryce - host of the Power Hungry podcast. They start off discussing the fragility of the US electric grid, using the 2021 Texas blackouts from Winter Storm Uri as a case study. Bryce explains how the crony capitalist approach to electricity pioneered by Enron made systems more vulnerable to disruption in California. He also argues for the need to embrace nuclear power to ensure grid reliability and meet climate goals.
The two delve into energy subsidies, with Bryce highlighting how solar and wind get hundreds of times more federal funding per unit of energy than nuclear power and other sources. He calls this distortion of the market "terrible for the poor and middle class." When it comes to solutions, Bryce asserts that strong, bipartisan federal government support for nuclear is essential.
On threats to the grid, Bryce warns that it is vulnerable not just to severe weather events, but also physical attacks, cyber-attacks, and even internal sabotage by environmental groups. Yet he says many policy decisions to address undermine reliability based on emotion rather than sound engineering.
Bryce concludes by emphasizing the need for clear-eyed, sober decision-making on energy and power. He plugs his new docu-series "Juice: Power Politics and the Grid" which provides an in-depth look at these issues.

652-empathy-understanding-key-strategies
As libertarians, we often focus on individual liberty and personal responsibility when discussing how to solve America’s problems. But it's also important to consider the perspectives and experiences of those around us.
Many Americans are struggling with a lack of economic opportunity and have been left behind by the current system. Increasingly, these individuals are looking to government as the only viable solution to their problems.
In this episode, we explore how libertarians can use empathy and understanding to better understand and connect with others, and ultimately sell libertarian ideas to a wider audience. We discuss the importance of listening and asking questions, as well as the role of storytelling and building trust. We also address common misconceptions about libertarianism and offer strategies for combating them. Tune in to learn how you can use empathy and understanding to more effectively advocate for libertarianism.

567-anthony-fauci-to-resign-in-december
Today we're talking about the announcement that Anthony Fauci is resigning his post at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Jeffrey Tucker joins me to talk about why we should be happy that a man who has been a part of the HHS since 1984 is finally stepping down, how much harm Fauci has done to public health and the trust in science, as well as what it means for our country moving forward.
We also discuss how this announcement should be a call to action for all of us, who have been fighting against government overreach into our lives, to continue fighting.

517-why-is-this-military-veteran
On today's episode of The Brian Nichols Show, I'm joined by Hayward City Council candidate Michael Lema, who is seeking to bring liberty based solutions to Alameda County!
"I decided to run because, in March of 2020, I got out of the Marine Corps after serving five and a half years. And I got back in mid-March, March 15, and I went to go work my first job as a normal person again.
And they laid me off right after my first day.
They're like, "Hey, come back in two weeks, this whole COVID thing is serious. We'll call you when it's time to come back to work."
Two weeks rolled around, I call them back like, "Hey, I'm ready to go back to work.", and they say, "Like not yet, call us back in another two weeks."
So I call them back again in two weeks. And they're like, "You know what, we'll just call you." And so I was laid off for two months, and I couldn't take it anymore. So I got a new job, which is my current job, now as the lead journeyman electrician for a crane company. And that was going great. I got sent off to the field, though, to a national laboratory, where I'm at.
And my boss had given me an envelope with a paper in it saying I'm allowed to drive. And I was really confused. Why he said, "Well, in my county and in my state there was a statewide curfew that you were not allowed to drive after 6 pm."
And that was the tipping point for me."
