About this listen

From former New York Times reporter Nellie Bowles comes an irreverent romp through the sacred spaces of the new left.

As a Hillary voter, a New York Times reporter, and a frequent attendee at her local gay bars, Nellie Bowles fit right in with her San Francisco neighbors and friends - until she started questioning whether the progressive movement she knew and loved was actually helping people.

When her colleagues suggested that asking these questions meant she was 'on the wrong side of history,' Bowles did what any reporter worth her salt would do: she started investigating for herself. The answers she found were stranger - and funnier - than she'd expected.

In Morning After the Revolution, Bowles gives listeners a front-row seat to the absurd drama of a political movement gone mad. With irreverent accounts of attending a multi-day course on 'The Toxic Trends of Whiteness,' following the social justice activists who run 'Abolitionist Entertainment, LLC,' and trying to please the New York Times's 'disinformation czar,' she deftly exposes the more comic excesses of a movement that went from a sideshow to the very centre of Western life.

Deliciously funny and painfully insightful, Morning After the Revolution is a moment of collective psychosis preserved in amber.

This is a solid summary of many of the recent culture war issues, and if you haven't been paying attention to them then this will provide a lot of context. It goes deep on San Francisco, and is otherwise a fun summary of everything you love and loathe about this dying resistance against sanity.

Very hard to stop listening, Nellie is an excellent narrator and story teller. I found the subject matter absolutely compelling and in many cases, totally bizarre. Imagine if all of that misplaced energy had been put into legitimate causes, how much better our world could be.
