135 - The Matrix Resurrections with Emily Leedham: Kiss Me Thru The Phone
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Labour journalist and friend of the show Emily Leedham returns to discuss her new Shift Work newsletter covering Canadian labour news every week, and the brand new instalment in the Matrix series. We discuss the film's relationship to capitalist realism, changing notions of personhood and queer identity, optimism, activism, and love.
