Shownotes Transcript

Crossover episode! Jay (from ep. 67 on Asian American leftist politics) and Teen join our friends (and token white dudes) Kristofer Nivens and Ryan Salisbury of the anti-imperialist, anti-fuckery, anti-capitalist podcast Neighbor Science (http://www.neighborsciencepodcast.com/) to discuss memelord and presidential candidate for real Andrew Yang. We talk about universal basic income, automation-driven job loss, and whether Yang is addressing a real world problem, or trying to find a 'third way' in an era of extreme political polarization.

Intro Music: "Baraka" by Philip Glass Intro Voice Track: Andrew Yang on the Ben Shapiro Show Outro Voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Qf2EX0d9AY
