A leftist reading group where at least one of us (usually Eric) will not have done the reading.

Why is Russia the whore of Europe? Is being a whore really all that bad? What would Dostoyevsky think about going to therapy? These questions and more, tactfully evaded in this episode of Eric Didn't do the Reading.
We're starting the year off right by talking about one of the freakiest little freaks world literature has yet to produce. In this episode, we discuss the first half of part 2 of Dostoyevsky's Notes from the Underground. We also fully litigate the unforgivable crime Eric committed in an IHOP in 2019.
In our ongoing quest to become the least accessible podcast on the internet, we explain the middle third of Dostoyevsky's Notes from the Underground using League of Legends, the Old Testament, and of course the Burning Wheel

Eric, Kevin, and James talk about prehistory and the article How to change the course of human history (at least, the part that's already happened) by David Graeber and David Wengrow.
