This week we took some time to catch up on current events which have transpired since our last unscripted recording, including the recent NYC Mayoral Election which saw Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani crush Andrew 'The Sex Pest' Cuomo in all but one borough. I think we all know which one was the holdout.

Cam and Evan take time to discuss their particular views on the role of electoral politics in a socialist project and whether it cans till be useful to take part knowing the limitations inherent.

This week we conclude the two episode miniseries we began last week with Dick and Don of Fourth Reich Archaeology. We continue our discussion of Guy Debord’s The Society of the Spectacle and try to make sense of the explosion of violence and fake disclosures that have dominated the first year of the second Trump administration.

The LU Boys are joined this week by Dick and Don of the Fourth Reich Archaeology podcast for part one of a two part series on Guy Debord’s 1967 work The Society of the Spectacle and his 1988 followup Comments on the Society of the Spectacle. We use these works as a lens to decrypt the first year of the Trump 2 administration and the explosion of violence and confusion that has followed in its wake.

This week we return to Iberia in the late 11th century to see how our old pal Rodrigo Diaz de Vivar is handling his second brush with exile from the royal court of Alfonso VI. He learned a lot during his first brush with freelance mercenary work, and this time we'll see him put those skills to work as he attempts to realize his loftier ambitions.
