    173. The UNREAD Story of Christmas

    This week, we explore the diverse pre- and early- Christian traditions that have lent themselves to our modern understanding and celebration of the Christmas Holiday. We talk about how those traditions have combined to create the modern holiday that is celebrated by billions of all faiths today, and how much 'Christ' there really is in Christmas to begin with.   Please consider joining our Patreon to provide material support as we work on our Easter episode: www.patreon.com/leftunread   Follow us: @leftunreadpod @gluten_yung @poorfidalgo   Email us: leftunreadpod@gmail.com   Theme music courtesy of the inimitable Interesting Times Gang: www.itgang.bandcamp.com   Happy Holidays LU Fam!

    172. Unchained

    This week we discuss the blooming relationship between Donald J. Trump and New York Mayor-Elect Zohran K. Mamdani. Is it love...or something more pragmatic? We also talk about our love for rock and roll music, and the impending AI bubble burst.

    171. It Ain't October 1917

    This week we took some time to catch up on current events which have transpired since our last unscripted recording, including the recent NYC Mayoral Election which saw Democratic Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani crush Andrew 'The Sex Pest' Cuomo in all but one borough. I think we all know which one was the holdout. Cam and Evan take time to discuss their particular views on the role of electoral politics in a socialist project and whether it cans till be useful to take part knowing the limitations inherent.

    This week we conclude the two episode miniseries we began last week with Dick and Don of Fourth Reich Archaeology.

    168. Spectacle in the Age of the Jackal I feat. Fourth Reich Archaeology

    The LU Boys are joined this week by Dick and Don of the Fourth Reich Archaeology podcast for part one of a two part series on Guy Debord’s 1967 work The Society of the Spectacle and his 1988 followup Comments on the Society of the Spectacle. We use these works as a lens to decrypt the first year of the Trump 2 administration and the explosion of violence and confusion that has followed in its wake.   All interstitial music provided by the excellent Angleton’s Orchids (Don).   You can unearth the secrets of the Fourth Reich on Twitter: @fourthreichpod @angletonorchids @leftunreadpod (Twitter and Instagram) @poorfidalgo @gluten_yung   You can subscribe to us on Patreon at: www.patreon.com/LeftUnread   You can reach out to us at: leftunreadpod@gmail.com Suggestions, questions, and hate mail welcome.   Theme music by Interesting Times Gang.
