“Just binged the first three episodes! In the face of the new spending bill funding the genocide in Gaza, the illusion of our “democracy” is in crumbles. Your content is so important and very appreciated! Thank you, comrades!”

“Now that I buttered you up lol,
Could you discuss the Smurfs being Communist?
I heard it elsewhere and it was a decent argument for it, but I think this show’s take on it would be entertaining.”

“Sometimes clear-eyed, succinct explanation relayed in a humorous & eloquent way. Occasionally however they completely miss the mark and show a total lack of knowledge or engagement with a number of important movements”

“If you are confused by socialism / communism / and want to know more, or have questions like so what really was “so bad” about Soviet Russia? Who were the Black Panthers and why don’t I know this already? What Broadway show should I listen to next??? Then this is the podcast for you 🥰

“I appreciate Christine’s role in this podcast as a fellow student and non binary person. Without them present, this podcast would just be a dude lecturing me on theory rather than a discussion between student and teacher with varying perspectives/insights”

“I love this podcast. It’s accessible for the novice yet detailed enough for people who think they know something about communism. Their dynamic is great. Neither host is pretentious but both are hilarious. I wish I had a teacher like Grady when I was in school.”

“If this podcast were all Grady, I’d give it 5 stars for sure. But Christine is too often “lost”. I think that slows down the podcast and gives too much of a “cutesy” feel to it.
I don’t dislike her, she just doesn’t add much value to the pod.”

“As someone in their mid twenties who lives to question why we live under a society that doesn’t work for the masses - I think this podcast is fantastic. I’m glad that there are likeminded people putting the commie message out there.”

I’m not interested in podcasts that claim to have...”Read full review »

…and from one comrade to another, Grady has a very nice voice 😅”

“It’s always nice to see people educating others on Leftism. However, they rarely if ever mention or consider Western Imperialism and its exploitation of the rest of the world and how it ties into Leftism. Also MLs stay away unless you want to have an aneurysm.”
