It's going to be a quick one this week on the Epoch. It's our 6th month anniversary and we have low energy and plenty of audio issues. LE open's things with a correction from a previous episode. In the news we talk about the non-action of Baker's COVID response, the Bankers association lobbying the CDC to move Wall Street traders and bank tellers up the line for the vaccine, and the still terrible stimulus package. We move into a brief discussion of movie news with Warner Bros' decision to release movies simultaneously to HBO Max and theaters. After LE tells us about primal COVID robbery, we move into a freeform discussion of American colonial empire, woke capitalism, the rich, climate refugees, and political ideology, closing things out by showing our support and solidarity with the striking Farmers in India. It keeps getting stranger on your Epoch, please enjoy it with us.
