Unless you were a member in January of 2025, this episode of SOLVED! will be brand new to you! We're slowing down production for a little bit to reorganize our production processes, so enjoy this episode from our archives (and B.Y: before YouTube) where Jay!, Amanda, Deon, and Erin discuss:

 

  • Ch. 1 - Why people love villains
  • Ch. 2 - How plutocracy kills
  • Ch. 3 - Why the path forward is through membership organizations
