PREVIEW: No Logo (Daedelus) Jul 29, 2022

Show notes

In which Sean and Andy finally start getting mercenary and talk shit behind the paywall. This week we tackle the blinkered stupidity of last week's 'Starbucks baristas are bourgeois' discourse. Is there even a crumb of meaning that we can glean from this meltdown? Anyways, we had fun with it.

Ep 188: Bin Pool Reich w/ Sean and Andy Jul 27, 2022

Show notes

What do inflation, the London heatwave, 'communisateur' Los Angeles Truckers and the 1990s hardline band Vegan Reich have in common? They are all part of this brand new news episode featuring Sean and Andy! Plenty of scorching takes within about agricultural production, based bin men, inflation as capital in decay and how much means of production must be destroyed before Andy can rest at night.
