In light of recent developments in the housing market, we are starting another Close Reading series. This time, we are looking at "The Housing Question" by Frederick Engels.

We are joined by C Derick Varn for another listener request. This time we're tackling "Farewell to the Working Class" by André Gorz.

We go on yet another forced march, this time we learn the rules of the game from "The Dictator's Handbook," by Bruce Bueno De Mesquita and Alastair Smith.

We are joined by guests Victoria and Gravesend for a News Roundup. Recorded in September, we reflected on the anniversary on 9/11, the Afghanistan pull out, and their implications for American Imperialism.

On a forced march, this time through the enemy camp, we are joined by Ro to look at Gender Acceleration: A Blackpaper by Nyx Land.

We sit down with guest Xur to learn about blockchain and discuss our latest patron request: two pamphlets by the Distributed Cooperative Organization "If I Only Had a Heart: a DisCO Manifesto" and "Groove is in the Heart: The DisCO Elements."

We discuss another patron request, this time it's a two part essay by Robert Brenner, written as the Soviet Union was beginning to unravel: "The Soviet Union and Eastern Europe - The Roots of The Crisis."

On another forced march from a patron, we attempt to ascend up the mountain of history to tier teal, and review "Reinventing Organizations" by Frederic Laloux.

We are joined by Tiberius to discuss "Right to the City" from "Writings on Cities" by Henri Lefebvre.

We conclude our discussion with Tom O'Brien about "Fundamental Principles of Communist Production and Distribution" by the Group of International Communists.
