In this episode, Alex and James sit down with Rob and Diego to discuss Guy Debord's 'The Society of the Spectacle', Michigan: Black and Red, 1970. Expect debate on Debord's theories of time and history, about just exactly what the Spectacle is, and whether Debord's imagined communist society could function without commodities.
