I'm not a podcast person, but I'm a socialist. Amber's writing was pretty fun, easy to read, and descriptive enough to give a good slice of life of someone who has been in many different places on the left from 2011 to 2021. It reads like a diary at times and in-depth political analysis at others, which can be a lot of fun. You'll find no gossip here about the podcast she was on. As amber says, this book is great for who often find themselves in wikipedia holes.
