Season 3 Episode 41: Richard Wolff Debates Branko Marcetic on Vaccine Mandates

Two of our favorite guests (Prof. Richard Wolff and Jacobin Staff Writer Branko Marcetic) return to hash out a disagreement on vaccine mandates. Prof. Wolff is critical of such mandates on workers' rights grounds while Branko has strongly endorsed them in Jacobin. Ben Burgis is, just this once a moderator instead of a participant in a debate.

Before the debate, Ben chats with the GTAA crew about his article in The Nation on Daniel Muessig, who's about to head to federal prison for 5 years for non-violent cannabis offenses:

After the debate, Ben chats with Matt McManus (filling in for Jenn for the philosophy segment) about his latest piece in Areo Magazine debunking the idea that postmodernism is some sort of "neo-Marxism":

....and in between those there's the debate!
