In celebration of definitely-real phenomenon of "armistice weekend" and the glories of war, Jack and Geraint review Ian Brown's 2007 anti-Iraq War, anti-Israeli occupation, anti-child poverty protest album The World Is Yours, which contains brilliant Sinéad O'Connor-aided masterpiece 'Illegal Attacks', and some other songs. Jack then presents selected readings from Ice Cube's 2018 Trump diss 'Arrest the President'.

This episode was originally planned to be our patreon.com/reelpolitik bonus for this week, before we realised we didn't have time to get a free one ready before the weekend. Don't worry, though, RP subs, you will still be getting new content in its place!
