“Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the feels.”
We are HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for everyone trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism. We’re here to answer all of the questions about love, friendship, family, and even work that you might want to ask two people who have spent adulthood trying to apply their radical political analysis, more or less successfully, to their personal lives.
We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and Sarah Jaffe, a journalist and author based in New Orleans.
