Taking What's Ours - Intro to ACORN

We talked with our new friend & comrade Jack (@_jackhy) about ACORN Manchester & ACORN Liverpool. Jack is the newly elected communications officer for ACORN Liverpool (and Siyang is a big fan of his tweets) This episode kind of functions as our introduction to ACORN. Towards the end we talk about the red specter of the Northern republic; the peoples commissar Andy Burnham; & anti-maskism and the severely legitimate distrust of the government in Liverpool. Enjoy worm that's an order. Stay safe, eat out, communize the world 2020 peace Joe-ker xx

Marxist Economics & Coronavirus: an interview with Professor Edmund Hardy

We sat down for interview with 'the don' Edmund Hardy, to discuss global capitalism, marxist economics, and the unfolding Corona-crash. In the intro we chit chat about everyone favourites app Next Door. Around 31:07 is the interview if you wanna skip the ice cream and move straight to the brain food. Lot's of fireworks were going off in and around Edmunds house during the interview, which adds a certain je ne sais quoi to the mix.

Season 2 Episode 1: The Return

Siyang and Joey are in isolation due to an outbreak in their Cambridge lighthouse. They apply their vulgar marxism and cynical delirium to the present state of things. There is a lengthy discussion of work and organsing in the education sector, and a reasonable bit of banter. Peace xx

School's out for Summer?

Schools in the UK never closed - as educators have been running them for the children of key workers and others - but now the government is trying rush schools into resuming a full service, against the advice of SAGE, NEU, BMA, and many others. We caught up with NEU organiser Ellie for an emergency mini-sode, to find out what's going on.

The hosts are quite pleasant and funny. I enjoy listening and an endorsement by Vijay Prashad is enough for me.
