9. Matt II (2028) – The Sensation of Density: Years of Boldness and Prudence

Energized despair. Fugazi. Climate politics on the inside and the outside. Machiavelli and Hanna Pitkin. This self-consciously literary chapter situates the reader (and your hosts) in the midst of social movement decisions and strategizing as Kate and the FBF crew grapple with a surprise political offer…and conflicts around hierarchy in movements. What are Matt and his naïveté standing in for? Is Kate a fox or a lion (or both) – and while we’re at it, which of those are your trusty virtue-filled co-hosts?!

Stock up on gooey turkey wraps and sick burns, press play, and take a listen.
