cw: extensive conversation about incarceration and involuntary institutionalisation, mental health (talk about ‘madness’/’insanity’), mistreatment of sex workers, nature/nurture in gender roles, male violence, class-based violence, sexual abuse, exploitation of prisoners, police brutality, using religion as an excuse to act terribly.  The Library is open!! Let me count the ways women can be sad. We contextualise Fantine’s terrible, no good time with women wanting some human rights, female hysteria being the hot topic of the day, hormones and socialisation, the foundation of criminal physiognomy and pre-written forms.  Nemo sat far away from the mic today and yet still managed to peak while laughing so the audio quality is Choice.    This podcast was produced by Nemo Martin and Julian Yap.

cw: death, leukemia, suicide mention, child abuse, descriptions of violence, ableism, sex work, domestic abuse, mental illness (schizophrenia, paranoia) We work through our sugar rush and carb coma to talk about our new favourite thing: Les Miserables: Owarinaki Tabiji.

cw: police, animal death, ableism, child death, structural racism and classism, antiziganism, police brutality, drug mentions, police shooting, internalised racism This week Nemo, Grace and Stevie build DIY snack receptacles out of our audio equipment, talk calumny about Hugo’s mixing of metaphors, then get on to our most important episode yet: Javert (and also how miseducation about institutionalised racism causes communities of colour to fight ourselves instead of fighting the root of the problem: white supremacy.)

cw: death mention, animal death, fire mention, alcohol mention, sex work.  Elephant poaching, ample backsliding,  gardening God-complexes. We discuss how to live by the tenets of Jean Valjean, factory-based respectability politics  and effortlessly inventing the economy of small towns. Stevie finally cracks and Nemo is thrilled.

SPECIAL - Dumas Grace and Stevie’s first attempt at recording the April Fool’s episode. It’s certainly an episode.
