We got a lot of feedback on episode 304 (about Anger) and episode 305 (about political transition and in particular the sections on violence) and we thought, hey, maybe we can just continue both of those conversations together, in a very special bonus episode, and see if that dialogue generates anything interesting. Spoiler alert: it did. Also, we did some sketches. I know we usually do so maybe I don’t need to say that, but, I don’t know, I just wanted to make it clear because I think the sketches in this episode are great.Full Ep Here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/309-we-respond-103318727

In 1944, the precursor to the CIA published the ‘Simple Sabotage Field Manual’. Now declassified, sections of this document are sometimes spread online framed as a guide to disrupting left-wing movements. In this special bonus episode, the Wrong Boys read the document, and are surprised by what they find. full ep: https://www.patreon.com/posts/307-simple-field-100810339 Links:PDF: https://www.cia.gov/static/5c875f3ec660e092cf893f60b4a288df/SimpleSabotage.pdfText: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/26184/pg26184-images.htmlTheme Song by Emil Kjølhede:emilkjoelhede.bandcamp.com

We continue our re-release of the fan favorite Library Socialism trilogy with the final of the OG trilogy. This time, exploring the philosophical alternative to hierarchy, the notion of cooperative difference, and the dynamic tension of mutually dependent opposites. We explore complementarity as a natural fact, analytical framework, and ethical imperative. Hierarchy, reciprocity, nature, life, death, grasping and loss are just some of the topics touched on as the Wrong Boys try really hard not to talk about the meaning of life.Transcript Available: SRSLY WRONG 200 – Library Socialism & Complementarity (Transcript)Support our show on Patreon: SRSLY WRONG | Creating a utopian comedy podcast | PatreonJoin us on the Library Socialism forum, Usufruct Commons.
