Description
We all know the system isn’t working. Our governments are corrupt and the opposing parties pointlessly similar. Our culture is filled with vacuity and pap, and we are told there’s nothing we can do: "It’s just the way things are."
In this audiobook, Russell Brand hilariously lacerates the straw men and paper tigers of our conformist times and presents, with the help of experts as diverse as Thomas Piketty and George Orwell, a vision for a fairer, sexier society that's fun and inclusive.
You have been lied to, told there's no alternative, no choice, and that you don’t deserve any better. Brand destroys this illusory facade as amusingly and deftly as he annihilates Morning Joe anchors, Fox News fascists, and BBC stalwarts.
This audiobook makes revolution not only possible but inevitable and fun.

A must!
Fantastic book,Russell narrates it brilliantly,by far the best audible book I’ve had the pleasure to listen so far! Makes you think how is it that we’ve allowed these corrupt corporations take over and control everything?only together can we make them fall and take our world back

Certainly gives you reasons to think!
I loved that the book was read by Russell. Loved the accent, the humour and the British slang. I am very appreciative of the views, facts and theories of our politics and rule. This book makes you think about all that. I think I now have to go to another of Russell's books as I believe that I got the wrong one which I had intended to. Lol, I am glad for the error.

Like my heart and mind spoke with a British accent
Every second was immensely enjoyable. I feel so in tune with all the thoughts and opinions expressed in this book. Russell Brand is an excellent performer and comedian and delivers his words with eloquence and humour. I can't wait to listen again and will encourage everyone I know to as well.

I absolutely loved this book. Insightful, important, mind opening, and HILARIOUS.
Very much enjoyed it and has influenced my thinking about current politics.
Should be compulsory reading at all learning institutions!

interesting ideas and challenges
In this book Mr. Brand offers thoughts on revolutionary new systems to replace the current order but neglects to compare the very real contexts of these alternate systems. Anyone who has ever participated in true Democracy understands the utter insanity of what he proposes, including the fact that he bases his concept of "the people" as some entirely benign altruistic entity just waiting for a system that frees them.
On paper and told with a good bit of ol' Bri'ish humour these sound like simple, feasible goals. Except the world and people are far more complex than Mr. Brand gives them credit for by a long stretch.
This is a wonderful fairytale of dreams and even ideals to strive towards and the world desperately needs true revolutionaries but even Mr. Brand is forced to admit what happens after revolutions: Napoleons and power vacuums and suffering once the social highs are sated and people realize that things actually have to work, day-to-day, now.
In the end the reality of Mr. Brand's "revolution" is to call upon every citizen to be an active administrator of their government... which, hell, is exactly the fix for the current system.
Tearing down the current order doesn't "free" the people, it forces them to fend for themselves and, worse, allows the winners of said current order buy up the rubble at fire sale prices. There's untold precedent for this, which, again, Mr. Brand ignores because hey, revolutions are both sexy and easy. Destruction is easy.
Picking up the pieces again, making it all work again, THAT is hard.
And all of this completely sidesteps the fact that we exist in a world of nations who are all entirely willing to take advantage of said revolution for their own means.
This book is fun for what it is and there are good challenges and thought experiments in here. But in the end Mr. Brand's "Revolution" is a house of sand built on a foundation of bullshit.
