"Year in Review" (w/Richard) - Episode 19 - Left POCket Project Podcast

I'm baaaaack! Richard and I recorded this discussion a few weeks ago, once I had gotten back from Mozambique (though still in Brazil) as a sort of "year in review." We discuss the yellow vests protests in France, recent proposals for a Green New Deal in the US, and much much more.
