Will Harry and Meghan bring down the monarchy? Ash Sarkar is joined by gal-dem political editor Moya Lothian-Mclean and Novara Media's very own James Butler to discuss how we ended up with a family of dysfunctional aristocrats at the very top of British society, why republicanism is still so marginal, and the collision course between celebrity culture and 1200 years of feudalism.

Derick Varn is a podcaster (Pop The Left, Mortal Science), author, editor, poet, and part of the Zero Books staff. Derick is one of the most knowledgeable people on the left and is someone I highly recommend engaging with.

We discussed some of the influential thinkers and movements to emerge from 1968 France, their relevance to today, and more.

C Derick Varn - 1968 & Hearbreak

In late March PTO spoke to Adam Tooze whilst he was in New York as the Covid19 crisis was escalating. In today's episode we return to some of the issues we discussed back then, including the pandemic's role in the rise of China, the increasing entwinement of government and private corporations in the United States and Europe and the return of austerity politics.

Bhaskar Sunkara joins me to talk about the violence in Kenosha, Wisconsin and collusion between the far right and the police, whether the frightening prospect of a second Trump administration makes a rerun of the 2016 election result less likely - in spite of Joe Biden's underwhelming policy platform - and we also talked about the prospect of the American right breaking from its relative economic orthodoxy and moving towards advocacy of a meaningful industrial policy.

There is no more fundamental form of work than work that provides us with food. Yet most of us have only a vague sense of the round-the-clock work done to put food on our plates – which some workers say is like 'sacrificing your life' to feed the rest of society. Can that last? 

As part of Novara Media's Future of Work focus, Sophie Hemery and Craig Gent have been out talking to workers throughout the food supply chain, from dairy farmers to wholesale traders and grocers. They join James Butler in the studio. This work is supported by the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation (London Office). 

Our special thanks to Matt Huxley for his production work, and to 65daysofstatic for their music.

Lola Olufemi joins PTO to talk about her new book, Feminism, Interrupted: Disrupting Power.  We chatted about the history of black feminist organising, the problem with mainstream liberal feminism, and the generational divide in feminist circles over trans rights.

In 2017 Labour, under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, achieved 40% of the vote in a general election – increasing their share of the vote by 10%. Two years later, in December 2019, that fell to 32% – as the party slumped to its lowest number of seats since 1935.

What explains the difference between those two results? What went right, and wrong, for Jeremy Corbyn? And can Keir Starmer be trusted to retain socialist policies through to 2024? All that, and more, is covered as Aaron Bastani talks to James Schneider, former head of strategic communications for Jeremy Corbyn.

Alison Phipps joins PTO to talk about her new book, 'Me, Not You: The Trouble with Mainstream Feminism'. We chatted about the MeToo movement and what it reveals about the mainstream of feminist politics, how violence against women is necessary to the project of capitalist globalisation and how the image of the imperilled white woman has been central to the project of empire both formal and informal.
