Insurrect The Record

A workers-focused episode. First we explore the history and present day importance of May Day and then we learn about workers arbitration clauses from Jake Smith.

We try (and almost succeed) to somehow fill an hour with an exploration of the shockingly bland, yet undeniably smart, handsome, and linguistically experienced South Bend mayor's non-existent policy platform. We are also suffering from allergies. So sorry.

This week we are joined by a group of students who, despite being continuously exposed to the rampant cultural marxism that college professors have been unleashing on young people for decades, don't feel like they have as complete a knowledge of leftism as they would like. Listen to our introductory exploration of common questions about socialism!

Forrest and Anders try their darndest to find out what exactly their favorite skateboarding corporatist actually wants to DO!

Anders and Forrest each pick four of their favorite politically tinged (or filled) songs to listen to, discuss, and analyze. Quite a focused episode so you can maybe show your grandma or something.

Part 2 of our tech centered conversation. Chats ranging from automation to European social welfare. Apologies for the mismatched audio!

Anders and Forrest react to Elizabeth Warren's visit to Decorah, go through her platform, and talk about the role she plays in the 2020 race.

A techity tech episode of Insurrtech the Teccord! Alex joins us briefly for an intro before leaving and then Lambros leads us on an exploration of open source software and many other topics. It's a bit rambly but Anders and Forrest are pretty much noobs to this stuff so cut us some slack.

A three part episode! First we look into and counter some of the dangerous bipartisan narratives (eerily similar to those surrounding Iraq in the early 2000's) surrounding the Venezuelan government, humanitarian aid, and its constitution (we still don't like Maduro though, simmer down please). Second we interview Asha Aden about the responses to Ilhan Omar's "antisemitic" tweet, the challenges faced by leftist women of color in the radically inclusive and diverse institution of the United States congress, and the future of interfaith work on at levels of society. Finally, we chill out for some banter with our favorite liberal Geoffrey Dyck to talk 2020 candidates and Forrest calls that by the time this episode airs Sanders will have declared his candidacy.

Our first episode! Some rambly chatting about us, our pasts, present happenings in our country and the bright future for North Korea!
