The podcast episodes discuss topics that relate to post-structuralism in various ways. The first episode Johanna Oksala, "Feminism, Capitalism, and Ecology" (Northwestern UP, 2023) draws on post-structuralist theory, particularly around subjectivity and critiques of essentialism, to update and refine Marxist and ecofeminist frameworks.

The second episode Is Marxism just Religion by Another Name? addresses post-structuralist critiques of Marxism as a new form of religion or dogma, arguing that while there are formal similarities, the content and methods of Marxism are fundamentally different from religion, grounded in a materialist, scientific analysis of reality rather than metaphysical or supernatural beliefs.
