[Episode 27] The Jeffrey Epstein & JPMorgan Love Affair

We hope you're all enjoying Unredacted Tonight with comedian, author, and activist Lee Camp on the d@w channel, as part of our efforts to expand the content of the Friends of d@w program.

In this episode, Lee Camp takes a sharp and unfiltered look at how big banks, such as JPMorgan Chase, enabled Jeffrey Epstein for years while reaping massive profits. From shady cash withdrawals to billionaire connections, this investigation digs into the financial networks that protected Epstein and allowed his crimes to continue unchecked.

You’ll learn how Epstein became one of JPMorgan’s “most important clients,” why executives like Jes Staley defended him even after his first arrest, and how the bank profited by expanding its access to the world’s wealthiest elites. Lee breaks down the absurdity of billionaires paying Epstein for “advice” and exposes the double standards of a justice system designed to shield the rich and powerful.

But this show isn’t just about Epstein. Lee also tears into political hypocrisy, the mainstream media’s selective outrage, and the way elites escape accountability while ordinary people suffer. From corporate corruption to government gaslighting, every segment delivers a mix of hard-hitting facts and biting satire that you won’t see on mainstream late-night comedy shows.

If you want comedy that actually challenges power, connects the dots, and exposes corruption, this episode is for you.

[Season 2 Episode 14] No Risk, No Return: Capital VS Labor

A popular myth propagated ad nauseam may begin to sound like the truth to some. It is no different for the “risk” theory of profit: the claim that capitalists “create” profits by assuming risk to capital. This theory was born out of the rise of the financial bourgeoisie as a dominant class; from the standpoint of this class, as Marx points out, “production is just an unavoidable middle”. For the financial bourgeoisie, it is a pure case of M to M”, the attempt to convert money into more money by buying and selling financial assets.
But the “modern portfolio theory” is an extension of the same ideas on risk theory that Frank Knight first posited in the 1920s. Its irrationality can be best understood by quoting the popular investor Charlie Munger, who famously remarked that “much of what is taught in corporate finance is, frankly, twaddle”.
In this episode, we explore the risk theory of profit with Prof. Wolff and ask: Is this theory a good representation of profits under capitalism?

The Dialectic at Work is a podcast hosted by Professor Shahram Azhar & Professor Richard Wolff. The show is dedicated to exploring Marxist theory. It employs the dialectical mode of reasoning, a method developed over millennia by Plato and Aristotle, and continues to explore new dimensions of theory and praxis through dialogue. The Marxist dialectic is a revolutionary dialectic that not only seeks to understand the world but also to change it. In our discussions, the dialectic comes into play, aiming to address the pressing life crises that we face as a global community.
