Backlog: C Derick Varn on Baudrillard

As the Radical Thoughts Podcast is no longer active, I am making these old bonus episodes from Patreon publicly available so that listeners don't have to pay for an inactive podcast. - Patrick In this episode, PH sits down with our first recurring guest, C Derick Varn, to give more context to the work of Jean Baudrillard. We discuss his relation to the Situationists, his break with Marxism, and the ultimate conclusions of his theory of simulation and simulacra.

Radical Thoughts is an attempt to read through as many texts in the Verso Radical Thinkers series as possible in order to come to a better understanding of radical theory and its tendencies. Our goal is to find the problems and frameworks worth addressing in order to move beyond radical thought into radical practice. Radical Thoughts is an independent project and not associated with Verso Books in any way.
