This episode features a conversation with Catherine Liu about the rise of the PMC and the death of traditional liberalism. Is the PMC a class that has overcome capitalist relations in order to shift social outcomes in its favor, or is the Professional Managerial Class merely the servants of capital working to create ideological justifications for continuing under the reign of capitalist relations.

The Diet Soap podcast began in 2009 in response to the economic crisis of 2008. Since then it has gone through many transformations, including becoming the podcast for a critical theory imprint out of the UK. Today the Diet Soap podcast is running under its original name for Sublation Media.Sublation Media includes a book publishing effort for critical theory and left politics, a magazine that covers current events and theoretical issues, youtube videos on theory and politics, and finally the Diet Soap podcast. The podcast is where we continue to interrogate the left and each other while having a good time.
