      • The 13th: Modern Problems Require Modern Solutions

        We're joined by abolitionist (yes, literally the original definition) and blues rock bassist John Burnett (@john_b_ill) to discuss his time in the Louisiana Correctional System and the hidden slavery that continues to thrive in America.


        We talk about mandatory minimums, brutal guards, modern plantations, and the insidious nature of human exploitation in capitalism.

        So yeah, good vibes all around. Follow us (@djtomhanks and @_tonywestside) and the show (@UnelectableA) if you want, and check out additional content on our (free) Patreon.

      • Marxist Gunsteader

        Matt (@djtomhanks) and Tony (@_TonyWestside) are joined by special guest Greg the Marxist Homesteader (@ih82tweetdood) to discuss rural radicalism, communes, and responsible firearm ownership. He gives us some tips on arming the left, joining a socialist gun club, and deescalating right wing extremism.


        We also talk about the police violence and far right terrorism in Kenosha, and what that portends for the rest of the country. Can the Democrats meet the moment? Will the fascists continue their domination of law enforcement and government?

      • Dateline Chuco Town: Status Quo Ya Termino

        Matt (@djtomhanks) and Tony (@_tonywestside) talk with Environmental and Fair Housing Attorney Verónica Carbajal (@VeroForMayor) about her Sunrise/DSA endorsed campaign to become the first Latina Mayor of El Paso, Texas.  She talks about her life devoted to environmental justice, historical preservation, and housing rights, and what she brings to the table for the Paso del Norte.  


        Vero also touches on how her campaign is adjusting to COVID, and the challenges as well as benefits this brings. We go into the weeds for a discussion of the intersection of housing efficiency, public bathrooms, and desert wildlife preservation that is a lot more interesting than that might sound. In fact, it's actually quite based.

      • The Truman Project

        We're joined by Kenzo Shibata (@kenzoshibata) of the Class Time Podcast (@ClassTimePod) and Twitch channel (twitch.tv/classtime) to talk about school reopenings, Chicago politics, American Empire, and the future of the Democratic Party.


        After Matt (@djtomhanks) and Tony (@_TonyWestside)catch up on current events and consider the ongoing debates about voting for neoliberals, we debut a new weekly history segment with a look at the Navajo Code Talkers.

        Then, we sit down with Kenzo, a Chicago teacher and member of last year's @CTULocal1 contract negotiation team, to get first-rate perspectives on the realities of education in the time of Coronavirus. He gives some larger insights into the local dynamics between Mayor Lori Lightfoot, the Chicago Police Dept, and the various unions and other constituencies vying for influence on the local government.

        We then take a look at Biden/Harris ticket, and discuss some of our expectations for the potential administration. We finish up with a discussion of foreign policy, Belarus, and whether we can keep the Lincoln Project from starting a hot war.

      • Killmonger Did Nothing Wrong

        We're joined by Aaron Thorpe (@posadist_trapgd) from Vanguard Army Podcast for a conversation touching on Atlanta politics, leftist communities, and the international 'big podcast' industry.


        He tells us about the radicalizing effects of 9-11 and the 'war on terror,' and the time he fell in a vat of commie juice. Aaron then gives us the play by play of his painful run in with the Wakandan National Guard, and reveals once and for all whether all cops are truly bastards. (Spoiler Alert: they are!)

        He even recounts occasions when he cried. Were they tears of joy or anguish? You won't believe the answer, so listen to find out on another exciting episode of @UnelectableA

      • Guillotines, TikToks, and Demon Dicks

        We got a jam-packed double episode extravaganza! In the second hour, we're joined by special guest Esperanza Fonseca (@endclasssociety) for a fascinating discussion of her recent article (A Socialist, Feminist, and Transgender Analysis of “Sex Work”) responding to DSA Resolution #53.


        Esperanza relates her experiences as a prostitute, and explains why she believes a proper dialectical materialist analysis ultimately concludes that DSA's decision to pass the resolution was in error.

        But before that, Matt (@djtomhanks) and Tony (@tonywestside088) run through the news of the week.
