The Micro and the Macro

Our first episode in studio as well as in the year 2018 at the then recently finished community radio station. I’m now joined by Jeremy Brock, and everyman worker who plays straight man to my madness.  On this episode we talk about union actions large and small, homelessness, local neoliberal budgeting, an update on that gondola mentioned last episode, and the differences between liberals and leftists.  ps. there will be lost episodes done in studio live but not saved and are thus lost.
