Recorded March 14, 2021. It's been one year since the COVID-19 pandemic started so Adam and Peter do a retrospective on the past year. They talk about protests in Senegal, a CIA base in the Sahara, the impact of the pandemic, and the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests -- how the dialogue has somewhat shifted but that doesn't mean a substantive change in policy.

Friday Dec 18, 2020
Recorded December 13, 2020. Adam and Peter are back. Peter talks about the Ohio police shooting of another Black man -- Casey Goodson, Jr. Adam talks about Brazilian security guards beating up and killing a Black man in Brazil, racism and slavery in Brazil, and systematic anti-Black racist oppression and Black-led movements against it are global. Then, for the bulk of the episode, the guys talk about the leaked audio of Joe Biden meeting with Black civil rights leaders and how much he disrespected Black people (again) and Black political demands. Black people helped Biden win the election but Biden said he won't do shit for Black people (not surprising). Adam closes with it a special mention of nationwide union of musicians that was recently formed.
