  • Pretty Funny, Also 🤔

    Good show. Undoubtedly the funniest of the “revolutions” podcasts. Lots of informative and insightful content. Though I fear they may never know the genius that is Wu Tang v Ninja (1985), aka Ninja Hunter.

  • One of the Best podcasts on politics

    I have enjoyed this podcast for a couple years. And I subscribe to the Patreon. Always very informed. Also the show doesn’t take itself too seriously. Great guests for topics on left politics, socialism, sports, black culture and much much more.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP. 931: THE DEMOCRATS FAILED ATTEMPT AT SOLVING INEQUALITY ft. LILY GEISMER
Q: What role did labor play in this realignment?
Geismer argues that the Democratic Party moved away from labor as a core pillar, favoring growth-oriented sectors like tech and finance, which were largely non-unionized, and thus diverged from traditional labor interests.
EP. 931: THE DEMOCRATS FAILED ATTEMPT AT SOLVING INEQUALITY ft. LILY GEISMER
Q: How did Clinton-era policies differ from earlier New Deal/Great Society aims?
She explains that Clinton era reforms often used private-sector mechanisms and targeted welfare reform rather than universal social democratic programs, signaling a move away from full-fledged social welfare expansion.
EP. 931: THE DEMOCRATS FAILED ATTEMPT AT SOLVING INEQUALITY ft. LILY GEISMER
Q: What motivated you to write a history of the Democrats' shift in this period?
Geismer describes a long-standing interest in how policy makers navigated class-based changes, using the 2010s and earlier decades to trace how market-oriented approaches became central and how that shaped inequality.
EP. 934 BAD ENERGY: AI HUCKSTERS, LITHIUM EXTRACTOS AND THE PEOPLE SELLING OUR FUTURE ft. JOSHUA FRANK
Q: Could you talk about Bill McKibben and his influence on environmental discourse?
McKibben is influential but offers a simplified view of solar adoption; the discussion emphasizes the need to critique capitalism and consider nuanced, systemic factors rather than accepting any single solution as a universal fix.
EP. 934 BAD ENERGY: AI HUCKSTERS, LITHIUM EXTRACTOS AND THE PEOPLE SELLING OUR FUTURE ft. JOSHUA FRANK
Q: What are you working on next, Josh?
Josh Frank describes ongoing book promotion and speaking engagements, with a tour across multiple cities and appearances that expand the conversation beyond the book itself.
