About this listen

Ever feel like the system’s rigged against the little guy? Dive into John Steinbeck’s "The Grapes of Wrath" with us, where the Joad family hits the road from Dust Bowl hell to California’s broken promises—think endless gig work, shady bosses, and zero safety nets. We break down their raw fight for survival, killer themes of solidarity over selfishness, and why this 1939 banger still slaps hard in our world of inequality and comeback stories. Tune in for hope that hits different.
