Show Notes
Special Announcement! I am joining Lenore and Jacob of Socialist Shelf for their new project, Worker' Lit, specifically the current events podcast, Unfit to Print.
Aysha U. Farah and Jen Big Nasty join the shelfers to... no wait, I'm seeing they're just joining the pod. Straight up. They're members of the show now. Let's goooo! We're excited to announce that this feed will be rebranding, with the umbrella name, "Workers' Lit." This is not because we're getting rid of The Socialist Shelf (you couldn't escape us that easily), but because we're adding a second show to the feed: "Unfit to Print," a weekly news roundup that starts with a structured summary of the last week's events and then launches into a more relaxed discussion of the current state of affairs. That's right, two episodes a week! Listeners, you asked for current events, you asked for more content, you asked for more Aysha and Jen, now you're getting it all! Were extremely excited to bring Aysha onto the Socialist Shelf side and Jen onto the Unfit to Print side. This is going to be a lot of work, but we're extremely excited to grow this project and hope y'all will be along for the ride! Please support us by sharing, leaving a review, listening, and telling your friends!
