344: Cyber Master

Governing Through Crime and NCIS Propaganda

The hosts discuss the book "Governing Through Crime" by Jonathan Simon, which explores how the war on crime has transformed American democracy. They analyze an episode of NCIS as propaganda designed to reinforce the idea that "once a con, always a con," discouraging the hiring of former inmates and supporting the prison-industrial complex.
