Susan and Stylianos sit down with Gen-Z representative and NYC-DSA Steering Committee Communications Coordinator Kaarthika Thakker to talk about how she found her way to socialism and the DSA. They get into organizing in the digital space as it compares with organizing IRL, and the ways in which remote workers in the tech sphere are particularly primed for unionization efforts.

Stylianos and Susan discuss the Democrats' Will They or Won't They relationship with unions before diving into a socialist philosophy of getting swole and organizing at the gym. Finally, they touch on the Arrest-Mas that never was and the liberal obsession with law and order and proceduralism.

Stylianos and Susan discuss capital's latest crisis: the Silicon Valley Bank collapse. Somehow problems for capital always seem to become problems for the rest of us. They get into the financialization of capital and what that means for an economy that moves according to vibes instead of widgets. Finally, they spend a bit of time on the return of great power politics, since the 90s are back but only when it comes to big pants: geopolitically it's looking more like the 50s.

Explaining more socialist concepts, today Susan and Stylianos ask, what is a non-reformist reform? How do Democrats and Republicans make reforms to capitalism, and how can Socialists? They also explore the happenings in Michigan with right to work, and what the US House Democrats are doing about DC bail and voting laws.
