(Crosspost from an episode Sean and Tarence did for those who missed it.) Introducing Year Zero, a new miniseries on political economy hosted by Tarence.

We'll be using the book to discuss the chaotic times in which we live, but don't worry: you don't have to have read it to follow along in the conversation. You just have to be willing to face the past, present, and future with a perfected thousand year stare...
