Public Space Travel Podcast Weekly Warp 2: Portland Boogaloo Welcome to PST's Weekly Warp: our new weekly series focusing on current events that catch our eye. This week we look at Trump's weight-lifting routine, how invisibility is the new norm for COVID data, and the anonymous federal crack down on protests in Portland. Public Space Travel is a podcast dedicated to social/political critique, comedy, and education. Coming from an anti-hierarchy/oppression perspective, we aim for progressive/radical left solidarity with brothers/sisters/trans and non-binary folk of all stripes. We want to discuss and examine topics (or interview people) that you want to hear about, as well as make corrections for things we’ve said.
