Mentions in Episodes:
- Episode: Center-Left COLLAPSE As Trudeau Faces RESIGNATION Calls
Podcast: Breaking PointsObviously, people say 'man' in George Orwell's book 'Homage to Catalonia.' But it's much more of a thing in 'For Whom the Bell Tolls.'
- Episode: Center-Left COLLAPSE As Trudeau Faces RESIGNATION Calls
Podcast: Breaking PointsBut I've conflated 'Homage to Catalonia' and 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' while making fun of young people for not reading, which is utterly embarrassing. So it's quite all right.
- Episode: Timothy Denevi on Hunter S Thompson and the Art of Journalism
Podcast: The Daily StoicI love 'Homage to Catalonia,' but there are parts of it where he talks about what it was like as a colonial administrator, knowing colonialism was wrong. It’s a lot like Thompson—he was caught up in enforcing it, and it shows how it destroys him as a way to argue against it. Thompson does a very good job at illustrating this.
