682: Sir Duke Don Tomaso Di Toronto Presents
Cuba Normalization, Sentimentalism, East Block Cars
The normalization of relations with Cuba has sparked a wave of "sentimentalism" among Democrats who wish to see the country's 1950s-era aesthetic before it is developed. The hosts compare this to the reality of "East Block crap," sharing anecdotes about unreliable Lada cars and Java motorcycles from the Soviet era.
