    Ep 66: Cancel Capital Factory!

    In this episode, I talk with two Cancel Capital Factory activists, Lenna and Saf. They are Austinites, tech workers, and founders of this campaign, as well as members of the local chapters of the Palestinian Youth Movement and PSL, respectively. Capital Factory is an Austin-based "startup accelerator," that brings together venture capital defense contractors, and Israeli surveillance tech in unholy matrimony.

    Jacob is one of my co-hosts on Workers' Lit, an activist in the Atlanta area, and an author. His new book, They Called Her Rebel is a fantasy novel about fighting against an oppressive system and organizing for revolution, along with magic and elves and orcs. It's such a fun story, and in this episode, we talk about it.

    Ep 64: International Solidarity w/ Madeline Pendleton

    One of my favorite digital educators, loved by marxists, hated by blue maga, Madeline Pendleton joins me to talk about their trip to Cuba a few weeks ago. This flotilla (Madeline flew) was to bring aid, learn about Cuban socialism, and come home to educate americans. We also talked about some common CIA lies regarding the DPRK, and the actual truth about that nation.

    Ep 63: Dutt's Fascism and Social Revolution ch5

    Originally recorded in October of 2025. Trying to get these all out asap for y'all. I still believe this to be the best book on the rise of fascism in Europe, and we can learn a lot from that (and how to defeat it) read along here: https://www.marxists.org/archive//dutt/1935/fascism-social-revolution-3.pdf if you'd like to support this project, I have Patreon tiers beginning at just $2.50/month: https://www.patreon.com/HowtheRedwasWon?utm_campaign=creatorshare_fan
