June 23, 2019 23:04 - 33 minutes - 23.2 MB

This is fight study, where we use professional fights to study the science and art of fighting.

We also discuss what fighters are willing to do when there's no safety net for their health or future—it's co...

Today we sit down with historian, author, and podcaster David Parsons of the Nostalgia Trap podcast to cover a variety of topics that are rarely discussed in-depth: from the nostalgia trap of Ken Burns documentaries, anti-capitalism, the Vietnam War, loneliness and the search for community, Howard Zinn and Noam Chomsky as gateway to psychedelics and Terence McKenna, reactionary hippies, and then the often most ignored part of the Left—Left physical culture. Things such as sports, working out...

28 – Politics of Avengers and Other Comic Book Movies w/ Matthew Rozsa

June 12, 2019 18:00 - 53 minutes - 48.6 MB

Comic book movies are inherently political. When it's about a global catastrophe, that's political. When you world-build, that's political. When you have characters so powerful they can own the world, that's political. Whether the writers intend to or not, comic book movies are political thought experiments. And that's why they're such wonderful teaching tools for politics, especially for those who think they're only interested in the entertainment aspect.  For this topic, we brought on pol...

June 03, 2019 00:00 - 12 minutes - 11.5 MB

Anthony Joshua vs. Andy Ruiz Jr. was real life Rocky. Just as Apollo Creed gave an unknown Rocky Balboa a title shot when he had no one left to fight, Anthony Joshua decided to fight Andy Ruiz Jr. when his opponent fell out.

24 – Jack Allison Experience w/ Jack Allison

April 21, 2019 12:00 - 1 hour - 71.4 MB

Like many of you, we at Southpaw have wondered, how would someone like Jack Allison react to Joe Rogan Experience questions? Joe Rogan is famous for bringing on interesting personalities from Twitter, yet so far—no Jack Allison. So we, as the JRE of the Left, have decided to take matters into our own hands and ask Jack those pressing JRE questions, such as "Have you tried elk meat," " Have you had run-ins with a lone star tick," and "Do you shock your protein while in heat?" Jack Allison ha...

Bonus Preview: A People's History of the United States (Pt. 3 of 3)

March 21, 2019 15:46 - 2 minutes - 2.4 MB

How would history read if it wasn't from the grand narrative of those in power, but just as it happened? Including all the warts. And since there are so many books that highlight the grand narrative, then we don't need a repeat of what we already know. What we might then need to balance out all that we think we already know is a book that highlights all the warts.
