Hi, everyone. It's Riley here. Usually this would be Nate, but Nate is on holiday. I'm coming to

you before the beginning of this episode of Rittenology, the sequel to the book club episodes where

Alice and I talk about books, with in this case guest, Quinn Slobodian, author of Crack Up Capitalism. It was a very interesting

conversation, and we're releasing it out on the free feed as part of our promise to treat

this basically like Britonology, where episodes will be, will come down from the $10 tier to the $5

tier to the free tier, slowly and overtime. We're releasing this one on the $5

tier because the first couple we were finding our, on the free tier, excuse me, because in the first

couple we were finding our feet, and now we have the first episode on the $10 tier ready for you,

should you want to experience it now. In that one, we talked about Timothy Morton's hyper-objects, philosophy and

ecology after the end of the world. So do check it out if you're interested, if you want

book club again and can't get enough of us talking about things written on pages. Anyway,

enjoy this episode about crack up capitalism with Quinn Slobodyan.

See ya to a sec.

Hello, everyone, and welcome back to the third episode of the still tentatively titled

Brain Zone.

We decided Rittenology was too derivative of Britonology.

It wouldn't make sense outside that context.

You just decided that. I liked it, but you were like, no, I don't make sense outside that context. You just decided that.

I liked it, but you were like, no, I don't think so.

Oh, I didn't say that.

Well, I liked it.

I thought you decided that.
