Episode description

INTRO:
The conclusion of the series on psychoanalysis politics and discord servers. In this episode, Adam from the Red Library podcast joins us to wrap up the discussion.

WARNING:
Wes have marked this episode as explicit because there are definitely some of those naughty f-bombs in the episode. Additionally, the audio is sometimes not ideal because we had to record outside of our children's regular nap time. I tried to do some minimal editing to help get rid of some of the background kids/family noise but some still made it in. (Sorry about that.)

TOPICS:
We talk about lots of stuff. Here are some of the big ideas in this episode. 

  • Imaginary identification
  • What is "the left"? 
  • The left & universals V. The right & particularity 
  • JA Miller & the psychoanalytic school 
  • The four discourses, especially the discourse of the hysteric 
  • S1 & S2 
  • Is psychoanalysis "revolutionary"?
