| 0:00.0 | You're going to. Hello everybody and welcome back to Red Menace. So for this month's episode of Red Menace we actually decided to do something a little different. I know last month we actually decided to do something a little different. |
| 0:24.0 | I know last month we promised that we were going to read Marx's work on the Paris Commune and we are going to read that for next month. |
| 0:29.7 | So if you have already read that or are in the process of reading that, we just basically have a little |
| 0:33.7 | a little extension to finish reading that before our next |
| 0:36.7 | month's episode on that text but for this month we did a little |
| 0:39.7 | crossover with Rev Left radio and interviewed JMP, Allison and I both, interviewed |
| 0:44.4 | J. Malefawad Paul on his new book, Demarcation and Demystification |
| 0:48.7 | philosophy and its limits. We think it works really well on both shows because obviously what we do on |
| 0:54.4 | Rev Left radio is about you know communist philosophy and theory along with |
| 0:59.1 | history and politics and organizing etc. On Red Menace we really focus on philosophy and theory and and Allison loved it as much as I did and we decided that we're just going to do a double interview. |

| 1:29.8 | J. Malfa-Wad Paul on his book, Demarcation and Demystification. |
| 1:34.0 | Enjoy. |
| 1:35.0 | Okay, my name is Joshua Mufaulad Paul. |
| 1:38.0 | I'm a philosopher who teaches as contract faculty at York University in Toronto and much of my work is on the philosophy of Marxism. |
| 1:48.4 | Absolutely and we're very happy to have you back. I mean at this point you've been on |
| 1:52.1 | Rev left so many times it's hard to keep |
| 1:53.8 | track but everything you do is is hugely influential to me and so that's why you're on again |
| 1:59.9 | and I do want to say I think I don't want to speak for Allison but I think I can safely say that you |
| 2:05.0 | know you really have been a huge influence on me and Allison as individual |
