Ad-Free: Adolph Reed Returns

When Professor Adolph Reed joins the zoom call, Matt welcomes him:

“Hi, Professor, how are you doing today?”

Reed responds: “I can’t complain.” Matt eyes him, incredulous. Reed smiles. “Actually, I can complain. And I’m going to.”

Reed, author of the forthcoming book The South: Jim Crow and its Afterlives and host of the new podcast Class Matters, has a lot to complain about

White liberal #resistance fighters, gun-toting right-wing survivalists, naive (French for “stupid”) politicians, and, in Monday’s subscriber-only episode, Kyle Rittenhouse and Lebron James.

Our favorite (don’t tell the others) unpredictable, thoughtful, funny, and angry guest is back, and we think it’s a good thing to be thankful for this year.

Check it out, and thanks for being supporters of us and independent journalism. Happy thanksgiving.
