Welcome to the weirdest episode of the Epoch yet! Content Warning, we really let our hair down this episode. We discussion Neera Tanden's nomination as Biden's director of the Office of Management and Budget, who will be the first to receive COVID vaccine, and the new possibility of World War 3 - this time with Iran. Jesse mentions the work of Rosa Luxemburg, which you can listen to on this podcast feed. We then move into a pop culture discussion, we recognize Elliot Page, and discuss the parallels between the Star Wars prequels, Game of Thrones, and America politics. LE's offers a bird segment like none other. And lastly, we say once again, Support Sex Workers.
