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 Owen Hathley.

We talked about a newly published

collection of his writings, clean living under difficult circumstances, finding a home in the

ruins of modernism. We chatted about Owen's early experience of writing in the left blog scene of the

early 2000s, why he came to write primarily on architecture and urban design rather than one of

his other passions, pop music.

And at the end of the interview, we talked about Owen's review of K-punk, the collected writings

of his friend Mark Fisher. If you would like to hear the extended 70-minute version of today's

Today's show is brought to you by PTO supporters on Patreon and also by Verso Books who have lots

of excellent titles that may be of interest to PTO listeners. One that you might like to check out

is The Revenge of the Real Politics for a Post-Pandemic World by

Benjamin Bratton. COVID-19 exposed the pre-existing conditions of the current global crisis.

Many Western states failed to protect their populations, while others were able to suppress

the virus only with sweeping social restrictions. In contrast, many Asian countries were able to make much more precise interventions.

What lessons are to be learned?
