We've been sitting on this audio for a while-- one of our many conversations (of which only some have been recorded). In this solo (Jess + Brendan) episode, we muse and ramble over a wide variety of topics, including houseplant stewardship, nature-cultures, music theory and the prescriptive power of language.
In this episode we chat with up-and-coming scholar and resident commie Archer Thomas about modernism, post-modernism, and what might come next. Warning: this conversation goes places.

In this episode we sit down with Umi, the founder of UmiFeeds, a food rescue organization based in Atlanta. We talk about food rescue (what it is, why it's important), homelessness, food security, and how to "spread love through food." Thank you for joining us Umi!

In this free-wheeling episode, Jess and Brendan chat one on one about the current state of things. Topics covered include Kamala Harris as VP, accelerationism, the Gadsden Flag, liberal paradox, community gardening, and autism.
Hello! Who is a criminal? Is utopia possible? What do postmodernism and intersectionality have in common? We interview sociology professor Dr. Desmond Goss to discuss these questions and more. Let's further unpack, aloud, what a post-police society would look like and discover why abolishing the police is simply one link in the chain. Much love and thanks to all our friends and listeners!
