On this week's edition of the show, hear from two Tallahassee DSA community-organizers who sit down for a report on disaster relief in the Florida panhandle six weeks after the devastation of Hurricane Michael. In addition, Cosby and Paul contemplate the pro's and con's of political organizing in the "big tent," dissect sectarian shenanigans, and explore the limitations of electoralism before closing on a discussion of the future of the DSA.
