Now go get some sunshine.

Our inaugural episode begins with Bean's rundown of anti-fascist news from in and around Western New York.  Rawlf then turns to journalist Debbie Bookchin to learn about the revolutionary anarcho-communist movement in Rojava in Syria.  Next is Bean's analysis of accessibility during anti-fascist events, and we close with a lively discussion about--what else--Andrew Cuomo's sharp elbowed rise and fast descent.

Journalist Rebecca Traister writes an intelligent analysis of how miserable Cuomo is to work for, and why this has lead to poor government administration. The New York Time's Daily podcast covers some of the same ground in an interview with journalist Shane Goldmacher. The Intercept reports on how the Working Families Party has risen up from the Cuomo's Sasquatch effort.
