À propos de cet audio

Southern-rooted conversation between two leftists—a Gen Xer and an elder millennial—digging into politics, culture, and history with a mix of intellectual curiosity and lived experience. We cut through the shallow, outrage-driven narratives that dominate social media to examine the deeper forces shaping our world - the Epstein class. Grounded in working-class perspectives, we challenge assumptions, dissect leftist ideas and strategy, and foster a community committed to honest, nuanced dialogue instead of echo chambers.

  • Who are the waste people?
    Aug 14 2025

    In our debut episode of We the Waste People, two Southern metalheads — a Gen X’er and an elder millennial — kick things off with a rapid-fire Q&A to size up each other’s leftist politics and let you in on where we're coming from. We launch our Class Discussion series with Nancy Isenberg’s White Trash, the book that inspired our podcast’s name and unpacks the deep roots of America’s class system—showing why working-class whites deserve a better political home than MAGA. Then, in Lifestyles of the Looting Class, we drag billionaire Peter Thiel into the spotlight — exposing how his empire fuels mass surveillance, authoritarian politics, and the unholy marriage of Big Tech and the security state.
