Money on the Left
Welcome to the podcast feed of the Money on the Left Editorial Collective. We are an interdisciplinary platform that reclaims money’s public powers for intersectional politics, drawing on Modern Monetary Theory and constitutional approaches to money to forge new paths for left critique and practice.
This feed serves as the single audio home for all Collective programming, bringing you regular interviews, political economy analysis, and special series on culture and aesthetics—including Money on the Left, In the Loop, and Superstructure.
Presented in partnership with Monthly Review.

Money on the Left
Superstructure: 1 - Critique After Bernie (NEW TRANSCRIPT!)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We are thrilled to present the very first Superstructure episode rereleased with a brand new transcript, brought to you by the generous effort of friend-of-the-show, Mike Lewis.
Framed by a cold open from Chapo Trap House’s recent Bernie retrospective, hosts Will Beaman and Maxximilian Seijo inaugurate the Superstructure podcast with a discussion of the failures of a reified left wing imagination. To chart a path forward for an MMT-informed leftist praxis, they critique reductive castigations of spectacle, damaging affirmations of scarcity and zero-sum politics as well as a burgeoning ‘anti-woke’ left-right coalition.
