We’re joined by filmmaker, storyteller, and poet Zachary Marlow, who tells us about his personal journey in relation to alcohol consumption. He shares how he was driven to drink to escape the alienating aspects of our capitalist hellscape, relating this addictive drive to society’s destructive addiction to capitalism. Marlow is one of 3 hosts of the Moneyless Society podcast – a show that aims to envision a world free of the corrupting influence of the profit motive. This project is closely tied to the work of the Moneyless Society nonprofit, which is actively building out a networking and resource hub through which people can use their skills to satisfy the needs of society without the exchange of money. Follow Moneyless Society on FaceBook, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, and support them on Patreon. You can listen to their podcast on all major platforms (Google, Apple, Spotify, etc.) Escape from Capitalism Cocktail Makes two drinks1 med.
