Socialism and Simpsons soundclips. Posadism and pro-wrestling. A somewhat tri-weekly leftist podcast based in Portland, OR, talking with people about their cultural obsessions and offering plenty of our own recommendations. We try to make socialism more fun with pop culture refs, you could say. Contact: @givingthemic on Twitter // Givingthemic@gmail.com // www.facebook.com/givingthemic/

87. Mark Levin's American Marxism: The Book - Part 1
Part 1 of 2-parter, the whole conversation is already available for patrons at http://Patreon.com/givingthemic. Part 1! Mark Levin's American Marxism book! It's a best-seller! Burning up the charts! It's really dumb and has no real idea what it's talking about, but that ain't going to let it stop from being yet another salvo in the Culture War! We welcome back Prof. Andrew Hartman(from ep. 81) and Jason(from ep. 38?) to go over this book. Thrill to discussions of why Mark Levin thinks that Marcuse was a member of "The Franklin School", how he's doing some sorta where Nietzschean thing with morality, and other heady concepts. - Check out Andrew Hartman's book, _A War For The Soul Of America: A History Of The Culture Wars_ - Help us make the show! www.patreon.com/givingthemic - Find us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/givingthemic - Questions/comments/suggestions for great local Korean food: givingthemic@gmail.com - facebook.com/givingthemic/ - - Main theme by The Mysterious Breakfast'r Cereal on SoundCloud @chiptheme - - All items trademarked and copyright their respective owners.
