Michael Brooks, beloved Leftist Youtuber and Podcaster, dead at 37
Like many of you I am stunned by the sudden loss of one of our brightest stars, Micheal Brooks died yesterday at the age of 37. An incredible man who lived an incredible life, this episode is a tribute to him. I play 4 clips and discuss them in between tears and try to pay homage to the man that inspired me to start this podcast. I along with Left Twitter mourn his passing and feel his loss. RIP Michael Brooks, I love you and will try to emulate the empathy and compassion you showed others so readily.

Tales of corruption, corruption, and yet more corruption!
We go through a whole host of articles covering the wealthiest and most powerful people in the world, how they're benefiting from this pandemic, and a brief story about my own frustrations with being a cog in someone else's wealth making. We talk about Joe Kennedy vs. Ed Markey and why Ted is basically just a family name concealing a Pete Buttigieg agenda. and ICE is even more of a disgusting fascist institution than you may have believed! Lot of bad news folks, but I promise it's all worth listening to.

What went wrong with Not Me Us?
I go into my experience as a Bernie volunteer and why I'm conflicted over who to vote for in November. From my point of view Bernie put us all in a situation where no choice is a good or even remotely adequate choice. Thank you all for your patience I've been in a bit of a mood since this crisis started but I'm glad to be recording again!

Joe Biden is a monster! COVID-19 is an indictment of capitalism failures!
We discuss Katie Halpers recent interview with Alexandra Tara Reade, I express my internal conflict over what to do should Biden ultimately face Trump. The world has never needed Bernie Sanders more than right now, but the powerful in the country seem determined to stop him at all costs. All the while COVID-19 has many of us trapped at home and makes the argument for why we need a socialist form of government to combat global crises. I cover an article which I link to here https://www.counterpunch.org/2020/03/20/capitalism-is-an-incubator-for-pandemics-socialism-is-the-solution/
