Workers of the World Unite with the Mandatory OT Podcast
What's up to my surly salamanders and ferocious fig-eating bats!
Welcome back to the BNP y'all! I have a sizzling and spicy episode this week, one I've been looking forward to sharing, featuring the eloquent and inimitable hosts of the Mandatory OT podcast, Chris and Dave.
Mandatory OT is a podcast out of northern Appalachia that discusses theory, history and organizing from a scientific socialist and intercommunalist perspective. Mandatory OT is affiliated with the West Virginia IWW, Definitely check out their podcast here: https://soundcloud.com/mandatoryotpod.
We had a fantastic and fruitful conversation, so much so that it was too much for just one ep. So this is Part One of my chat with the Mandatory OT hosts and Part Two will drop next week.
In Part One we talk about the history and circuitous road that led to the founding of the Mando OT podcast, how work so often radicalizes people, some techniques for talking to your co-workers about union drives and activism, and much more.
Big thank you to Chris and Dave for taking the time to hop on the BNP and pontificate about how we can achieve working class solidarity and revolutionary collective consciousness, in order to build a better, more just society that works for All, not just a few.
Thank you for listening and supporting the BNP y'all! Make my world glow even brighter by becoming a patron for as little as $1/month at www.patreon.com/noetics. I can haz mobile BNP studio in Managua? Mew?
Don't forget to rate, review, subscribe and spread the word about the BNP! Oodles of amazing karma pours upon those who do.

One Love,
