Pushback Talks Season 9 is here with "Word Food"!This season, Fredrik & Leilani return with their signature bite-sized episodes: sharp, surprising, 15-minute explorations of the words that shape our world. Each week, they pick a single word (or two) and unpack how its simple surface hides deeper social, political, and economic realities.Think of it as thought-provoking “intellectual snacking” - quick enough for your commute, rich enough to shift how you see power, privilege, and the systems around us.This weeks episode:Ceasefire: a look at the consequences of a ceasefire motivated by profit rather than humanity and the illegalisation of Palestine Action in the UK.Madeleine (Memory): a taste not only of a delicious French pastry, but also a nostalgic memory triggered unconsciously by a cue encountered in everyday life.New episodes drop every week.Make this your ritual for keeping your curiosity - and your resistance - alive!Support the show
