New episode: A loooooong time jump and a new part of The Deluge begins with...an imagined article on ecotage, the criminalization of dissent, US climate politics, and many kinds of connecting many kinds of dots for character and reader alike...

Our first Matt episode closes out our coverage of Book I. Is Matt a Markley avatar? Is Kate the main character of the novel? How does this chapter engage myths about wilderness and the West? Can you really impress someone by carrying around Arendt? https://t.co/KC56dIablb

A new interlude episode this week, on the in-universe WSJ article criticizing Tony's in-universe climate book. Come for Emily's office hours on the politics of science, stay for some comments on the humor and functional purpose of the interlude

New episode! Our first chapter with Jackie situates the reader in the Midwest, introduces us to The Actor, queries 21st c. hetero gender relations, shows us the normie POV on climate, and provokes your dear podcast hosts to do a lot of psychoanalysis.

New episode! It's the first Shane chapter, giving us a chance to talk about the invisible infrastructures of fossil capitalism (and of this novel), the politics and culture of the war on terror, the audacity and uncertainty of the text boxes, and more.
