E08 Renting the Future: Labor, Ursula Huws and Platform Capitalism

We’re back—and this time it’s all about labor. Guiding Ryan and Jamie's conversation is one of the sharpest voices on work, capitalism, and the platform economy: Ursula Huws. From living in a Situationist house with Guy Debord to breaking down today’s gig economy and platform labor, Ursula has seen and done it all.Together, we dig into her typology of labor—paid, unpaid, productive, reproductive—and how these shifting categories help us understand the changes in our economic system. We ask: what does it mean when almost every aspect of life gets folded into capitalism? Is there a way out of the crisis of social reproduction? And what happens when everything, even the future, is up for rent?On your Marx, get set—let’s go!Marx · Ursula Hews · Connecting the Dots · Gig Work · Platform Capitalism · Renting the Future · 400 Blows
