Introducing the Life After Empire Podcast

The Life After Empire Podcast is a place for patient reflection and sharp polemic, curiosity and candor, unity and struggle. We will strive to surface our contradictory impulses, ideas, and actions, as we work toward resolving the contradictions that shape our wider world.  

Starting today, you can find the show on Substack, Spotify, or Apple Podcasts. 

Life After Empire will bring you probing interviews with people who have forced us to think, and monthly discussions of the books featured in our After Empire book club.

In our first episode, you’ll hear our interview with Gabe Levine-Drizin, whose recent article on the relationship between Israel and Latin America spurred a wide ranging conversation about the politics of history, the utility of settler-colonialism as a conceptual framework, and the role that Israel has played in world affairs beyond the Middle East.

Soon to come, we will sit down to discuss the latest book by Yanis Varoufakis, Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism.
