We are HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for everyone trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism. We’re here to answer all of the questions about love, friendship, family, and even work that you might want to ask two people who have spent adulthood trying to apply their radical political analysis, more or less successfully, to their personal lives.


We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and ⁠Sarah Jaffe⁠, a journalist and author based in New Orleans.

  • Episode 31: Everything is Embarrassing
    Nov 6 2025

    Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism.


    This week, we're low on questions so we thought we'd talk to each other about a couple of viral relationship articles that are in productive tension. We poke at our ongoing discomfort with terminology, the still-brokenness of heterosexuality, and why caring about stuff is cool again. And then we answer a question about organizing, capacity, and crisis.


    We need your questions!! Send them to us at https://www.askmeanything.cc/heartreacts
