Somewheres, Anywheres, Sex Nerds feat. Bryan Quinby

Show notes (as published)

Another week is upon us, and that means another Silicon Valley company has reinvented loan sharking. Riley ( @raaleh ), Milo ( @Milo_Edwards ), and Olga ( @rocknrolga ) reached out to someone with extensive knowledge in how payday lenders screw over the poor: Bryan Quinby ( @MurderBryan ), host of Street Fight Radio in Columbus, OH. They discuss a loan-sharking payday lender for your rent, and the liberal fixation on books like J.D. Vance’s “Hillbilly Elegy” and its British equivalent, David Goodheart’s “The Road to Somewhere.” These books are bad, don’t worry, but they’re also deeply invested in the idea of valourising reactionary tendencies as natural and good things. Which is why we gave them the Trashfuture treatment. The article Riley references by Tom Whyman is here: https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/yp7m5v/how-theresa-may-understands-people-as-somewheres-and-anywheres. A friend of the show was in a car accident in the US and needs funds for surgery.
