3/4 of the Regrettable Century(Kevin, Chris, and Jenny) join us in a pod crossover to talk about their fave subjects, revolutionary pessimism and Gothic Marxism. We contrast it with utopian science fiction(like Kim Stanley Robinson), ask if there is a Higher Power("IT WAS ME, AUSTIN! IT WAS ME ALL ALONG!"), podcasts as radicalizing vector, Texas, shit-talking militant atheists, also get into the future, automation, and human flourishing. That kinda thing.
