Dylan is joined by economist and bestselling author Yanis Varoufakis to unpack his recent book Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism and why we should be concerned about this new economic and political age.

Journalist and author Lech Blaine discusses his Quarterly Essay Bad Cop: Peter Dutton’s Strongman Politics and how Dutton’s political history and identity inform his approach as opposition leader.

Plus, Aaron Curnow looks back over the history of his label Spunk Records - which has put out seminal releases from the likes of Smog/Bill Callahan, Sufjan Stevens, Aldous Harding and many more - and why he's decided to call it a day after 25 years.
