Bunny Guillotine is a Chicago-based podcast that examines pop culture and media through the lens of leftist ideals with the intention of fostering media literacy, promoting progressive ideology, and building community through empathy, humor, and insight. We seek to tear down the paywall separating influential knowledge from the everyday person and present leftist theory in a humorous and unpretentious way that connects to people’s real life experiences. Using the podcast as a spearhead, we intend to bring together a fully inclusive and intersectional community of people in Chicago and beyond to effect change in a myriad of different aspects - from personal to legislative and everything in between.
