ICYMI - March on Bunga

We looked to identify the key political oppositions that will characterise the net decade in our anniversary episode 400.
The 2024 Reading Club was launched. We delved into Benedict Anderson's classic and essential Imagined Communities. Are nations being undone?
Populists who criticise the Left for being too anti-EU? We looked at Portugal's election with Catarina Príncipe.
Did the millennial left try to mount a coup from within the computer? Was it all about media? Alex talked to Benjamin Studebaker.
And our series on emotionalism continued with two episodes:
How have we gone from a concern with happiness to one on mental health? Ashley Frawley had her take.
Alex talked about how to take control of time, and the withdrawal from hyperpolitics and hypermodernity.
