It has been one year since the death of Mike Davis. Californian, educator, activist and writer, he left a long list of books detailing America's working class, the myths and realities of Los Angeles, the global proletariat, climate change, urbanism and ecology. We take a look through his books, talk about his career and what his legacy means in an age with L.A.'s Virgil no longer with us.

1 hr 15 min - Grief, Gaza (188)
Ryan and Drew talk about the news of the moment coming out of the Middle East, the news industry's response and how social media has fueled hate in the wake of this intense conflict.
