Today’sepisode(78 mins) is a conversation withMichael O'Rourke. Michael is a postman and independent scholar who also teaches at Independent Colleges Dublin. His most recent book, Queer Insists (For José Esteban Muñoz), was recently published with Punctum and CriticalTheory.com in its list of best books in 2014. My thanks to Michael for bringing me to Dublin in July for the Laruelle in Translation series which also allowed me to sit down and have this conversation with him. 

At the top of the show I give some thoughts on the recent attack in Paris and the wider context it comes out of. 

The music in today’s episode is“Farewell to Floss” byThe Blue Ducks. Head over toRecords on Ribsto support them and other great artists.
