b'We are joined by Malcolm Harris\\u2014author of Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World\\u2014to discuss his magisterial book on how a hellmouth in Northern California has, for the last two hundred years, been a vortex of power for capital. We discuss some of the lesser known people and products of Palo Alto\\u2014like Herbet Hoover and William Shockley\\u2014that have had very important impacts (for worse and worse) on the direction of modern society, but have largely been looked back on in very myopic ways. We only scratch the surface of the amazingly detailed histories, social maps, and historical materialist analysis that Malcolm digs up in his book.
