- Episode 67: Let's Ask a Socialist
Months before Collateral Banter, Danny T. started a podcast called Free Radical with a friend. Danny T., in this episode known as "John," quizzes his socialist friend "Reed". They discuss capitalism, immigration, labor, utopia, China, and dissent. Can workers create change without becoming oppressive? And what's the role of technology and digital capitalism today? It's a long episode that you will hopefully enjoy.
This episode was originally recorded on April 23, 2018.

1 hr - Episode 64: A Very Special Guest, Prez D.T., Calls into the Show
*Very strong and offensive language is used in this episode.*
It appears as if the host of this episode is "George Lopez" and he gets a call from an unexpected but special guest. They banter about wrestling polar bears shirtless, Marco Rubio's "small hands" comment, to uncovering Danny's real father. If everybody is making up reality, why can't we?
