Anarchist Geography w/ Simon Springer
I speak to Prof. Simon Springer about anarchism, geography and how he brings radical politics to the academy. We cover many topics through the lens of equality and non-hierarchy, and argue on whether we can survive the environmental apocalypse. This episode is one for the books!

Strikes & Violence w/ Neil Coetzer
I talk to Neil Coetzer about the violent state of labour disputes in South Africa. Not only does labour make itself guilty of violence, but sometimes the capital-state retaliates. We consider difficult questions like where to draw the line on violence, and what are the underlying structural inequalities that need to be addressed.
