The Bottom Line pt. 2: Boot Tartare

Public Space Travel Podcast

Episode 07 - The Bottom Line Pt. 2: Boot Tartare

On this episode of PST, we explore how corporate and political interests align by taking a look at GitHub's contract renewal with ICE and Blizzard's reaction to a pro player sharing his political opinion. We also chat about games, flu-shots, and the body-horror of Lazarus Wolf.

Public Space Travel is a podcast dedicated to social/political critique, comedy, and education. Coming from an anti-hierarchy/oppression perspective, we aim for progressive/radical left solidarity with brothers/sisters/trans and non-binary folk of all stripes.
