À propos de cet audio

“Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the feels.”


We are HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for everyone trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism. We’re here to answer all of the questions about love, friendship, family, and even work that you might want to ask two people who have spent adulthood trying to apply their radical political analysis, more or less successfully, to their personal lives.


We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and ⁠Sarah Jaffe⁠, a journalist and author based in New Orleans.

    Episode 36: Being Taught Not to Feel
    Feb 27 2026

    Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism.


    We're back! And we have thoughts on masculinity, heterosexuality, and capitalism. First about the Olympics, and the pleasures and misfires of watching sports through the lens of the nation, and then we answer a letter about being a "lonely male," and how to learn to be comfortable with feeling.


    Stuff We Talk About:

    Men's Freestyle Skiing Big Air Final (Highlights)

    I, Tonya

    Red Army

    Miracle

    Craig: No Crying Shame

    A.S. Hamrah on Tech Won't Save Us


    We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and ⁠Sarah Jaffe⁠, a journalist and author based in London.

    Episode 35: Patience is a Practice, with Kelly Hayes
    Jan 26 2026
    Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism. This week is a special episode, so it's dropping on Monday. We're bringing you a very special guest, Menominee author, organizer, journalist, editor, podcaster, and friend of the show Kelly Hayes. Kelly is just out with a new book that she's edited, a collection of letters to comrades from comrades, for moments when the struggle feels hopeless. It's a form of advice book, and so we thought it would be a great time to get Kelly on to talk about her work, and her concept of "social deskilling," which has been so important to us here at Heart Reacts.Stuff We Talk About:Kelly Hayes, Read This When Things Fall ApartKelly Hayes and Mariame Kaba, Let This Radicalize YouKelly Hayes: Organizing my ThoughtsKelly Hayes: Movement MemosMovement Memos: We Must Burst Our Algorithmic Bubbles and Build Together Across Difference (the Social Deskilling episode)Our social deskilling episode, if you missed itIf Anyone Can Pull off a General Strike, It’s MinnesotansIs Marriage the Building Block of Society?

    Jan 8 2026
    Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism. We're back, we survived the holidays, and we have some thoughts on emotional libertarianism to share with you. Some of you have asked what we mean by this term, which we've used occasionally, so we took the opportunity to dig into it a little bit. And then, we answer a question about what it means to be a romantic, anyway.We need your questions!!
