My partner has all the right political instincts and really wants to bolster their knowledge of the systems of socialism/communism and the ideologies therein.
I was initially thinking of recommending Blackshirts and Reds by Parenti as that was an entry point for me to shed any remaining lib tendencies I had.
Would love to hear what y'all would recommend!
There's a podcast on Spotify where a professor does an analysis of Das Kapital as well. In the beginning he state that the recording is his 6th time reading it. It's like 10 eps long but it was great to listen to while driving as an alternative.
Do you remember the name of the podcast? I'd listen to that for sure.

And I was wrong, it's 12 episodes long.
Thanks!
