309 TEASER – Further Conversation About the Politics of Anger and The Idea of Violence
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
