Episode 35 - The Gods Must Be F*cking With Us

When we scheduled an interview with historian & populism expert Thomas Frank, we didn't expect to be recording with a right wing faux-populist coup in the background. Turns out, he was an ideal guest. Frank helped us to understand our current political moment by examining history of populism in this country from the 1890s through the Bernie revolution. Virgil and Brie react in real time to the ongoing protests, Brie's groceries spoil, and Paul Robeson sings.
