Die Arbeitswelt im Umbruch. Dieses Bild wird oft genutzt, um die Veränderung der Arbeit beispielsweise durch die Globalisierung oder die Digitalisierung zu beschreiben.

“It’s safe to say that Charlie Brown would probably find Christmas in China the most vulgar and offensive exploitation of the holiday imaginable,” was my first thought after watching the timeless Christmas feature in which he stars on a brisk—but far from cold—Christmas morning just before calling my family on Skype.

Here is the audio from last week’s podcast. I apologize for the delay, I was a bit ill and did not have quite the vocal stamina to maintain the podcast. As a result watch for another one later today, as I’ll be recording an episode about Thanksgiving in China. It’s a bit of an injustice to talk about environmentalism or construction and infrastruct…

Con-Dawg and Spence-Bruff came back from Fall Break with a vengeance and with some words to say to their massive, worldwide audience. On tap tonight were topics ranging from crazy sports press conferences, prison shanks, signed photos from that a-hole Hitler, and the Radiohead cover band playing next door during the show. If none of those topics gr…

Bizzy and Bruffy returned from a one-week (or two-week?) hiatus to ramble and rumble and waste an hour of your time. We were going off of a combined 5-to-6 hours of sleep the night before and were relying on the inverse property theory of “Little Sleep Equals Big-Time Radio” first put forward by a certain Wolfman named Jack. Hey, hope you enjoy. Co…
