The Regrettable Century
The old forms of the left are moribund and the new forms are stupid.

A clean, honest, and unsentimental melancholy is required; we are cultivating one and would like to share it with you.

First off, please forgive the first few minutes of Chris' audio, we adjusted the levels during the podcast and fixed it. You won't have to bear with it all the way through.
