the Hello and welcome to another episode of Politics Theory Other, a podcast from Tribune magazine.

My name is Alex Doherty and my guest today is Leader Maxwell. We spoke about

We discussed the contrasting nature of the disclosures of Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden

and the way Manning's leaks placed her outside the lineage of respectable whistleblowing.

We also talked about the relationship between Manning's gender identity

and how her experience of living under Don't Ask, don't Tell, in the US military,

informed her broader critique of American foreign policy.

And we also chatted about the post-truth era

and whether a return to the certainties of the pre-financial

crisis period is possible. Today's show is brought to you by PTO supporters on Patreon and also

by Haymarket Books, which has a great many left-wing titles that might be of interest to listeners.

a major publishing initiative of the radical left in affordable paperback editions.

The peer-reviewed series seeks to publish the best of critical Marxist theory, with titles

monographs, translated texts and reprints of classics across the bounds of

academic disciplinary agendas and across the divisions of the Marxist tradition, the series

aims to foster vigorous intellectual debate and exchange on the left.
