In the second part of our discussion on Palestine we look at the events of The Al-Aqsa Flood, October 07 2023, as well as the surrounding media environment, the hostage situation that has ensued, and some key figures involved in the promotion and enablement of the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.
We will be discussing Israel's war crimes and taking an initial look at the widening war in Part 3, coming soon.

In the first part of our discussion on Palestine we do our best to cover the past 100 years. Through Britain's Mandate for Palestine, the formation of the State of Israel, and the continued project of displacement, occupation, apartheid and genocide that led to the events of October 7, and the horrific events we are currently witnessing.
We will be discussing The Al-Aqsa Flood in Part 2, coming out on 19th January 2024.

In the first half of our discussion on the global climate crisis, we discuss the difficult reality we find ourselves in: quickly passing milestones, after which there's no turning back. We look at some of the past decades, discuss key facts and statistics about our rainforests and oceans, laugh at some reactionary discourse, and do our best to grapple with the scale of what this means for our species.
