Well, we've made it to the end of 2024 and the end of our run on Mark Fisher's Capitalist Realism. In this episode, we unpack these last two ideas, talk about Stalinist Bureaucracy and why it's relevant to talking about work today, some updates on this podcast, and some thoughts on the recent UHC CEO shooting. So, grab a holiday-themed emotional support beverage, enjoy, and have a happy new year!
