  • What’s Love Got to Do With It?
    2025/02/21

    In this week's episode of Capitalism Hits Home, Dr. Fraad delves into the concept of "Love," coming just a few days after Valentine's Day. She examines how America has undergone a significant revolution in recent history—a transformation in the meanings and practices of love. Love and marriage no longer "go together like a horse and carriage," as Frank Sinatra's 1955 song once claimed. Today, most Americans are single, and the majority of marriages end in separation or divorce. This podcast explores the reasons behind this profound shift.

  • Marriage and Capitalism
    2025/02/11

    In this week's episode of Capitalism Hits Home, Dr. Fraad explores the global shift in household structures, which stands in stark contrast to traditional marriage norms. As the fundamental unit for creating and sustaining human life, the family is undergoing profound transformations. Just as the nuclear family once replaced the feudal family, new and diverse family structures are now emerging in place of the nuclear model, as marriage declines and new patterns of child-rearing and family formation take root.

  • Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire: Trump and his Supporters
    2025/01/10

    In this week's episode, Dr. Fraad discusses what the Trump administration means for the American people. All but the wealthiest American men, women, and children will suffer while billionaires Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will lead the proposed agency, DOGE( the Department of Governmental Efficiency). They plan to cut government jobs, job protections, and aid for poor and working-class people, especially the most vulnerable members of our society. The cuts will protect the wealthiest from interference with their profits. However, we can fight back!

  • Why Did Trump Win?
    2024/11/15

    In this week's episode, Dr. Fraad explores why and how a convicted felon who was found liable for sexual assault was chosen to lead America. Americans and particularly white American men are frightened. They have lost family wages and their wives as well. White women have lost the lifetime financial support of their domestic labor and child care. Americans have no Left Party to explain their lesser lives. Why not? This podcast begins to explain it.

  • History of Childhood
    2024/11/01

    In this episode, Dr. Fraad discusses the history of childhood. To quote the most well-known historian of childhood, Lloyd deMause, "The history of childhood is a nightmare from which we have only begun to awaken." We all begin life as children. Our history must be claimed. Feudalism and capitalism cast children as private property to use, abuse, exploit, or love. This podcast explores our common history through a Marxist lens. In case we need the footnote it follows: Lloyd deMause The History of Childhood. Psychohistory Press, New York. 1974
