    Sean and Andy are joined by Deep State Kuba Ph.D., international relation expert to the podcasting stars, to discuss current events in an unraveling world.

    ARMED LOVE 14: Sixties Surrealism w/ Abigail Susik

    Abigail Susik is an art historian, vice president of the International Society for the Study of Surrealism, and editor of Resurgence! Jonathan Leake, Radical Surrealism, and the Resurgence Youth Movement, 1964-1967, a compilation of publications by a surrealist sixties' anarchist group in NYC. For this Armed Love episode, we challenge ourselves to understand the political potency of the interwar avant-garde art movements (Dada, Futurism, Surrealism), their resurgence within the sixties New Left, and the potentials for avant-garde revolutionary praxis to confront political challenges today.

    E322: L'Internationale (Derogatory) w/ Connor Mulhern & Henry Wallace PREVIEW

    Sean and Andy are joined by Connor Mulhern, lead researcher at the Reactionary International Research Consortium, and Henry Wallace, head honcho at the New International Magazine and Franco-American raconteur, to discuss the networks of power and influence behind the rise of right populist movements across the globe. How might this reactionary global influence network compare to the unsuccessful 20th century attempt to create a fascist international or the relative successes of the Mount Pelerin Society later on? Where does an increasingly reactionary Silicon Valley fit in? What is the connection between Trumpism and the burgeoning European post-fascist movement? And how might they be confronted and defeated without the working class allying itself with the avatars of a dying liberal order like Keir Starmer and Kaja Kallas? https://reactionary.international/cases/ https://www.newintermag.com/washington-is-no-ally/ https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/opinion/national-security-strategy-us-europe.html To listen to the full episode and all our wonderful bonus content become a supporter of our show at http://patreon.com/thiswreckage Song: JPEG Mafia - Vulgar Display of Power

    17 JAN

    E320: This Angry Wreckage w/ Angry Workers of the World

    Sean and Andy are joined by Marco and Luke of the UK collective Angry Workers of the World, here to discuss their practical activity and intellectual output since the publication of Class Power on Zero Hours several years ago. They also present their relatively new healthcare industry project whose publication Vital Signs seeks to analyze how medical labor, in all its industrial diversity and its day-to-day struggles, might prefigure a world where our class has taken responsibility for production and reproduction of society. This is a wide-ranging and fascinating discussion with fellow workers who are grappling with the biggest questions facing our class at the moment. If you're interested in their project or starting something similar where you live and work they have asked especially healthcare workers in the US to reach out to collaborate with them at Vital Signs.
