Ep. 20: On Euphoria & Gen Z, the UK General Elections, and voting Labour

from SPS · host Platypus

On this episode of SPS, we discuss HBO's Euphoria, what it says about the emerging "Zoomer" culture, and whether Gen Z's cynicism should be taken for granted. Sophia interviews Peter Tatchell, a human rights advocate and veteran activist of the LGBTQ movement. They discuss his experience on the left and his thoughts on Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party. On the second half of the episode, Pamela is joined by London Platypus members, Efraim C., Rory H., Dominic J. and fellow traveler, Rebekah P., at the London School of Economics. They discuss the latest on Brexit & the upcoming election, as well as what it means to vote Labour today. The Platypus International Convention is on April 3-5 in Chicago. The theme is "Socialism in the 21st Century". We welcome ideas for panels! Send us your pitch to [email protected]. You can find audio/video record of past conventions on the Platypus website, www.platypus1917.org. As always send us your questions & criticism, and if you are into the podcast, share it, & hook us up with a review. Hosted by Pamela C. and Sophia.
