  • Always my go-to listen

    This has got to be the best political podcast I listen to by far. Both guests and hosts provide incredibly sharp Marxist analyses of current events both in Australia and around the world, as well as drawing on history and practical action. A must listen for anyone left wing who wants to be politically informed.
