Hello everyone and welcome back to RevLeftRadio.

So for today, we're actually launching our brand new project, which I talked about in the intro to a recent episode,

which is our new history podcast, Gorilla History.

I was approached by Adnan Hussein and Henry Haka-Maki to be a third co-host on this project,

and after they explained the dimensions and the perspective of what we're going to try to do,

I was fully on board.

And so I'm really excited about this new project and to launch this first episode, which is a wonderful interview with Vijay Prashad,

we decided to release it on RevLeft as well as on our Gorilla History podcast feed, which I'll link to in the show notes,

I'll link to the Patreon, the Lipson, etc.

So that going forward, you can directly get stuff for Gorilla History.

But as the launch, as the promotion for the first ever episode of our brand new show,

I'm putting it in its entirety, and it is an interview with Vijay Prashad on his newest book, Washington Bullets.

The structure of the show is going to be different than either RevLeft or Red Menace,

and that the first little 15 minutes or so is me, Adnan, and Henry discussing the book before we bring on its author.

And then we have the full interview in the middle part of the episode, and then at the end,

we'll do an outro where we just give some final thoughts on the discussion with the author, on the book, etc.

And that's going to be that three-part structure for Gorilla History going forward,

until and unless we decide that we want to change it or evolve it or whatever.

So I'm really excited about this, and I hope you enjoy this as well. Here it is.

You remember Den Van Boone?

No!

The same thing happened in Algeria, in Africa. They didn't have anything but a rank.
