Podcast episode delving into the theory of podcast listening and convincing me I should probably listen to fewer podcasts. Great podcast! Definitely reading this book asap

I want to just push back on one comment made at the beginning of this episode on Liz Truss's book calling it "stupid" when the policy proposals she makes in her work are the roadmap for dismantling the United Kingdom, establishing a Scottish republic, and reuniting Ireland.

Romance being communist explains a lot about American heterosexuality

I worked an overnight shift in a deli aisle cutting meat and cheese while listening to the Haitian revolution. Probably the worst period of Covid for me, and made me teeter between everything and nothing is possible in the world.

Book sounds great, very enjoyable conversation. I got really into Gilberto Gil and Gal Costa while studying Brazil as an undergrad, I either had no idea or completely forgot Gil went into exile in London. One of the best and most affecting parts of reading history for me is seeing the 'just a guy'-ness of people a hundred or a thousand years ago, the little ridiculousnesses of their lives even when they were making decisions we still tremble at today

Thanks for mentioning the book on the stream Alice, read it over the weekend and it was great! Probably the first time in awhile I've such a textual book. Reminds me of the People of Paper.

Riley, important question, Aaron Dembski-Bowden, Dan Abnett, or Graham McNeill?

Re. the idea that everything that is good in London is essentially coterminous with community spaces, I wonder if this could be connected with the ideology of the suburbs returning to the metropole. As P.E. Moskowitz recently wrote in The Nation: "The suburban doctrine dictates that public space be limited, and conflict-free where it exists; that private space serve only as a place of commodity exchange; that surveillance, hyper-individualism, and constant vigilance are good and normal and keep people safe. It is an ideology that extends beyond the suburbs; it infects everything. Even cities […] have become places where people expect convenience and calmness over culture and community. What is a life of living in a surveilled and amenity-filled high-rise and ordering all your food and objects from the Internet to your door if not a suburban life?" Great episode, and will read the book very soon.

This book doesn't seem to have had any US release- can't even find it as an eBook. Waiting patiently for the special order to be delivered from the UK
