This Wreckage

Author, journalist and cat dad @coreypein joins us to gives us some important updates on what he described in last year's excellent 'Live Work Work Work Die': the hyper-capitalist hellscape of Silicon Valley, the over-under on a big Bezos hog reveal, the dark powers that our new tech overlords hold over our of lives, and how we might fight back against them!

AP Andy comes across a fellow radical exile Blair Taylor washed ashore on a beach in Nayarit, Mexico. The two post-anarchists discuss the life and work of curmudgeonly communalist Murray Bookchin as they watch dolphins frolicking in the sunset. Topics include radical muncipalism, Bookchin's concepts of democracy and citizenship, Blair's Institute for Social Ecology and the formation of the Symbiosis network with DSA-LSC, Black Socialists, Cooperation Jackson, the PKK and Rojava, Bookchin's criticism of Bernie Sanders, and others, and what sort of kinky things the old man was getting up to in Vermont.

Collectively, we get at the heart the Putin problem and... SING SONGS!

Join us as we dissect the dystopian world of The Handmaid's Tale, the ur-text of liberal anxiety around the impending neo-theocratic counter-revolution.
