Season 5 Episode 6: Aamon Hawk on "Yedolf"/Nick French on Analytic Philosophy (Podcast Version)
Episode description
You know those animations we're always playing of American conservatives as characters in Lovecraftian nightmares? The creator of those, Aamon Hawk, joins us on this episode! We watch his latest ("Yedolf") and a few older videos and chat with him about what he does. In the second half of the show, Jacobin's Nick French talks about his recent article, "How Analytic Philosophers Have Made Sense of Capitalism":

Ben wrote about French's piece (and a previous Jacobin article taking the opposite view) here:

Last but not least, philosophy professor Ryan Lake joins us on the postgame for GTAA patrons to talk about Tim Pool's love of James O'Keefe and hatred for--we're promising we aren't making this up--Plato, Kant, and Bertrand Russell.
