This post contains a list of every main episode of Activist #MMT, in chronological order. For all previews available exclusively to patrons, go here. All my episodes with the podcast Historic-ly can be found here. The Activist #MMT candidate interview series can be found here.
My goal for Activist #MMT, the podcast, is to balance academic concepts with personal stories, of how MMT changed average people and their thinking. When I interview academics, my very-first episode (or section) with them is generally their personal story. I also believe my interviews with activists give important perspective on how MMT is affecting and perceived by laypeople.
