Adam sits down with David Griscom, host of The Jacobin Show and Left Reckoning, and author of The Myth of Red Texas (Nation Books, 2026), to excavate the buried radical history of the Lone Star State. They start with the present: Talarico's primary win and what class-war rhetoric is proving in Texas politics. Then they go back: the proletarianized cowboy, the fence-cutting wars against British and Northern capital, the Southern Farmers Alliance, the stolen populist election. The "California hypothesis" gets debunked. And the question by the end isn't whether Texas has a radical tradition; it's why nobody told you about it.Become a HWDI Sponsor and get access to this week's B-Side:Patreon: https://patreon.com/hwdipodSubstack: https://substack.com/@hwdipod ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
