The Dream Team

This week we are re-running an episode from season 3: Neuro-linguistic programming, or NLP, is the communication technique used by coaches and cult leaders alike. John James Santangelo—a fan of Napoleon Hill— is an NLP expert who gives Jane a crash course. Jane is mesmerized, and according to Santangelo, might've even been hypnotized.

This week, producer Dann Gallucci (filling in for host Jane Marie) sits down with journalist and author, Mary O'Hara, to talk about our big, beautiful - and shrinking - social services in the US, from the perspective of a UK transplant who's 2014 book "Austerity Bites" (10th anniversary version is out now) looks at the impact of the austerity measures put in place in the UK after the 2008 global financial crises. Spoiler - they we're and remain terrible for the average UK citizen. Perhaps a lesson for US voters at a time when the dismantling of government institutions and the slashing of social services we've taken for granted for decades, are contributing to an ever-growing income gap that has so many Americans feeling pretty helpless.
