It’s another music episode! We chat about Paul Robeson, a way too talented guy who was a football player, actor, singer, civil rights activist, communist, and a correctly typed Aries. We also get into some rabbit holes about classical music and occult stuff because well, it's us. Link to the playlist for this episode is here.

Despite the best efforts of Dave and Dan and our pesky cats, we manage to record an episode talking about the movie The Young Karl Marx. Marx is a wife guy. Engels has drip. Christine does a bad French accent.   Check us out on social media: Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/teach-me-communism?ref_id=10068 Instagram: @teachmecommunism Twitter: @teachcommunism Gmail: [email protected] Patreon: Patreon.com/teachmecommunism  And like and subscribe to us at Teach Me Communism on YouTube!   Solidarity forever!

Let’s talk more about food! We cover organic farming, grazing management, the ethics of eating animals, and wrap up with our overall thoughts on how capitalism affects our relationship with food and how we’d handle it instead.

What does corn have to do with capitalism? A lot, apparently! Find out how this weird grass has taken over almost every aspect of agriculture.
