Description

We chat with Christen & Char from AK Press about publishing, printing, and left media as a whole, and what it's like to work in a cooperative modeled business. What does the future around publishing look like given the internet & conglomerates monopolizing the publishing industry? What can we learn from the post-truth era, and what impacts does it have on how the left can organize and use post-truth to its advantage?

Climate Change got you down? Worried about the fact that *everything* seems to be getting worse? Wondering how we got to this point in the first place, and what can we do to build a more resilient future? We take a look at historical pastoral & agricultural societies to see what worked and what didn’t, as well as what resources we have today to make better decisions to build equitable systems. We don’t just discuss ecology and history but also take a leftist perspective on prepping, foraging, homesteading, weapons, community-building, and basically anything that needs discussing during late-stage capitalism.
