YO! Our public episode this week got FUBAR'd due to some scheduling problems but that makes this a perfect opportunity to release something from our patreon feed by POPULAR demand. I (Jake) made this a while back after playing the video game Disco Elysium and people seemed to like it. If you hate this and want us to get back to calling Barack Obama "cheugy" or whatever don't worry, we'll be back to that next week. Here's the original description: ---------------------------------------------------------- That's right, we're youtube video essayists now. Not really, there's no video, you don't have to watch me dressed up like Evrart Claire or whatever for an hour during this, it's just a podcast. I (Jake) played Disco Elysium recently and decided I wanted to make something to process its rich marxist themes and whatnot so here we are. That said, MASSIVE SPOILER WARNING, if you have not played this video game and think you might want to at some point, you may not want to listen to this, as the whole plot is dissected. If you're a Disco E freak or you're just curious though, enjoy. MUSIC: British Sea Power - Disco Elysium OST
