May 28, 2022 Ep 12: What Does Gun Control Look Like In Canada? w/ Scott Martin AKA Pinko Punko
First, some words on the Texas shooting, and about how capitalism creates violence and suppresses the solutions that actually work--because they aren't profitable.
Then, as a follow-up to Episode 10 (the Great Gun Debate), I talk with Scott Martin (Pinko Punko on TikTok & YouTube) about what gun control looks like in Canada, where we don't have very many mass shootings.
NOTE: The interview portion of this episode was recorded before the Texas school shooting.

May 11, 2022 Ep 11: How capitalist governments screwed up the covid response, w/ Nora Loreto
They screwed up. We know they did. But Nora found out exactly why and how. In this episode, I interview Nora Loreto (of Sandy & Nora Talk Politics) about how neoliberal politicians and journalists serve a system that prioritizes profit and its own maintenance over human life. We also discuss the question: how afraid of long covid should we be? What amount of fear is helpful at a personal level?
Nora's new book is Spin Doctors: How Media and Politicians Misdiagnosed the COVID-19 Pandemic.
