Most of our media are owned by a handful of tech billionaires, but there's one place that still operates like the internet was never invented.

0:10.4

On the new season of the divided dial from On the Media, we're exploring shortwave radio, where prayer and propaganda coexist with news and conspiracy theories, and where an existential battle for the public airwaves is playing out right now.

0:26.3

Listen to On the Media, wherever you get your podcasts.

0:30.0

Good morning, Prokaptan. I hope you are well.

0:32.7

I have a slew of new patrons to thank.

0:34.9

And then there will be some ads.

0:36.3

And then there will be a cool episode about checking my notes here, the importance of the state when assessing our own

1:43.6

patron yet and you can afford to become one,

1:45.7

it really does matter, and I hope you will. You can check the show notes for a link to do that and to learn

1:50.4

more about what you get in return for doing so. Also, in personal news, if you're interested,

1:56.6

as some of you know, I'm going through the spousal visa process for the UK. I just got an email

2:01.2

about a couple hours ago, two, three in the morning, and it let me know that a decision has been

2:06.5

made, R.E. My Spousal Visa. Of course, it only said that a decision had been made and did not tell me
