Description
Bad news: Joss is out for this episode. Good news: we've got our first guest! You can (and should) follow him on Twitter @dkpmason.
Jacob and Mason are back this week to finish our discussion on Upton Sinclair's 1906 work of political horror (Aka the life of a member of the hyper-exploited working class) "The Jungle."
What does capitalism do to the human soul? What drives a man to turn on his fellow workers? How low can a person get? And finally, where should we look for our liberation?
