Wow, well, Seattle City Council Member Kshama Sawant is on the show for the first time this week and it’s a kinda epic conversation. Council President Tim Burgess has been saying Sawant lacks accomplishments, and she takes a swing back at her council colleague—or, actually, several swings. We also talk about China, what to do about local crime, what Socialism means to Sawant, and whether or not The Stranger is “the corporate media.” Strap in.

And then Stranger art critic Jen Graves tells us about a local artist who got an intense, last-minute commission: make a gift for the Chinese president.

Plus the music of Don’t Talk to the Cops, Thunderpussy, and the Theoretics!
