The O.N.A.N. one is deliberate; a reference to Onanism (masturbation, but also coitus interruptus) coming from a biblican story about a bloke named Onan.

#234 - The Value of Something Weird

I am utterly gutted by the recent passing of Leo Panitch, who was the editor of The Socialist Register and a mentor to so many people like me, so I did what odd-ball podcast hosts do and I turned to the mic to get out my feelings about his legacy and what he meant to me. After a 25-minute eulogy, I replay a B-Side chat that I did with Leo back in 2017. I tricked him into talking about his life by asking him questions about people who were near and dear to him, like Ralph Miliband, Tony Benn, Jeremy Corbyn, and so on. 

Rest well, Leo. And may the rest of us re-engage with his work and legacy.
