I think that, of all the political commentators that I follow, Tony most aligns with my own viewpoints,. His episodes are on the exact topics that interest me (catholic socialism, national-internationalism, christopher lasch, etc.), but it has been increasingly difficult to listen to this show because of how insanely long the episodes are. I am a patron because I believe in his work but find it a chore to get through up to 6 hours of content in one drop between the public and backroom episodes. ... more
Remarkable look at all the inner contradictions of nation and migration
This podcast is constantly dividing the left against itself. We need more cheerleaders and fewer annoy academics applying ideological litmus tests.
Vivek Chibber, in a few sentences, exposed the feeble and faulty understanding of political economic reality of the host, who is better at LARPing as a lefty than being one.
I’ll give it another listen if Gabriel Rockhill is invited.
Really enjoyable discussion and good guests. Good balance of deep dives on thinkers, and current events, etc. Love that the host has a thoughtful tone and lets his guests speak without interruption, while also adding his own thoughts that enrich the episodes. As a Canadian I would love more canadian content! I loved your episode about Canadian healthcare!

A show that blends political philosophy, history, and political economy through deep-dive conversations with scholars, organizers, and commentators. Across episodes, listeners get rigorous analysis of Marxism, liberalism, nationalism, and modern culture, often framed by geopolitics and contemporary policy debates. The host surfaces provocative theses, invites contrarian viewpoints, and leans into long-form discussions that connect classical theory to today's events. Noteworthy is the willingness to challenge orthodoxies, feature cross-disciplinary guests, and examine how ideas translate into political strategy and social change, making it a compelling listen for strategists and researchers evaluating left-of-center perspectives.
