An Unqualified Guide to the Good Life

Ep. 67: An Unqualified Guide to Politics - Material Culture

Listen Later

Welcome to a new miniseries on Identity and Politics!


In this episode, Nic and Adam discuss the objects they carry with them, as well as the ways in which we interact with material culture inform our identity and our politics.


In the episode, Adam said that Danny Miller called blue jeans the first "post-semanitc" object, when he meant "post-semiotic" (what an idiot).
