Fordham Professor of African American Studies Mark Naison was once a Columbia student who was present for the occupation of Hamilton Hall back in 1968. He provides context for the protest, how the risk of community outrage helped the students achieve success, and weighs in on the current wave of university protests and the consequences facing his own students at Fordham today. Naison also just happens to be a terrific storyteller who opens the ep by describing how he ended up in one of the most enduring Chappelle's Show segments and what it was like to have Lana Del Ray in his class.

Bill Mitchell, professor of economics at the University of Newcastle and the man who coined the term Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), joins Bad Faith to explain how liberals failed to resist the rise of neoliberalism, how conservatives were able to wrest back control after the progressive movements of the first half of the 20th century, and how progressives can offer an alternative critique of globalization that resist both conservative culture war politics, and liberal weaponization of identity politics.

Journalist Zaid Jilani joins Bad Faith to elaborate on his recent controversial criticisms of Matt Taibbi. Are leftists simply angry that they can't control where Taibbi's interests have taken his reporting? Or has Taibbi taken a reactionary approach in response to bad faith attacks from liberals -- and, if so, is he justified? Is the left correct in mourning that, these days, his ample skills are rarely applied to issues that concern the left? Is it fair to accuse him of falling victim to audience capture? Or is Taibbi right that it's important to focus on criticizing liberals because they are, in fact, more dangerous and hold more institutional power than the right?
