Summary

It's TRASH-A-FADA AGAIN. Riley and Alice teamed up with Jamie, Andy, and Sean to bring you a history of Sp!ked - we answer the question: how did everyone's favourite Koch-funded contrarian take machines grow out of an obscure British Trotskyist sect from the 1970s, and the corollary to that question, why are Trotskyists so weird? This bonus episode is in addition to all this week's TF episodes, so enjoy! Check it out, then go subscribe to their feed (this is the apple link, but they can be found wherever you get podcasts), and more importantly... buy Andy's book about the strange history of Posadism, entitled: I Want To Believe.
