For the meat of the episode, we feature part three of Bursts conversation with Paul Z. Simons about his experience of the Rojava Revolution going on in northern Syria. The Rojava Revolution began in 2012, as an outgrowth from the insurgency of the PKK and other Kurdish groups in Turkey that's been locked in an off-and-on civil war for 30 years. Paul, a post-left anarchist from the U.S. talks about his experiences in Rojava in October of this year of their multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, feminism revolution.
The Rojava Revolution has been described as anti-state, anti-capitalist, feminist and ecological, however in the conversations Bursts has had on what's gone on in Rojava with students of it, little has come out in terms of how the Rojava experiment has been ecological or anti-capitalist. So, in this conversation Paul and Bursts spoke about Paul's understanding of economic models, property rights, modes of exchange in Rojava as well as discussions of it's war-time and long-view approaches towards ecology in Rojava.

Presenting du13's "MESSAGE from the FUTURE II"!
Dec. 5, 2015, 12:53 p.m.
Tonight, through the shopworn, flyspecked magick of radio, we will be receiving another urgent communiqué from du13, the future descendant of du8!
I've been too scared to listen to this message alone--so I'll be hearing it tonight along with you guys in real time as it spills out of WREK. And ohhh, sacred shit...WHAT WILL OUR FUTURE HOLD?!!! Last time, du13 did not pull any punches, and his horrific revelations of what awaits us in the future terrified me to my core! It shook me up so thoroughly that in my sleep, I peed the bed for two weeks running--and I mean running. This time, I'm just going to curl up for the night in a goddamned wading pool. I have a feeling this one is gonna make me start sleepshitting...!
