    The ICE Dungeon Made Of Drywall: Report Back From The Front Lines Of Delaney Hall w/ Jensen

    Jamie is joined by Jensen, an activist who was on the ground for the most intense portion of the anti-ICE actions at the Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, NJ. They discuss the history of the privately-run GEO group facility and how it developed to this point of crisis. What tactics were used by prisoners inside the facility and protesters outside, and what limits did they come up against? The feckless behavior of local Democrats like Newark mayor Ras Baraka. The implications of state repression. And why is migrant defense a strategic area for revolutionaries to intervene in?

    Earthbound & Down (Critical Support For Anarchist Space Pirates) w/ Terry

    Jamie is joined by Terry, an anonymous fellow traveler, to discuss the news, including: the latest billionaire space rocket explosion and why we need to keep our attention on Earth. The anti-ICE protests both inside and outside of the privately run Delaney Hall detention center in Newark, NJ, which, as of publication, show no signs of letting up. Between the flaming barricades, a sitting Senator getting pepper sprayed by ICE, and Greg Bovino threatening to "handle it himself," Delaney is becoming a key flashpoint in the fight against Trump's deportation machine. What can we learn? Plus: Trump talks shit to Netanyahu.

    Sorry To Boost You w/ Sophie Weiner

    Friend of the show Sophie Weiner joins Jamie for a hybrid Cultural Marxism/news ep. Up top: the new musical "Cats: the Jellicle Ball" (it's good), the latest attempt to assassinate Trump (if we can even call it that) and the battle to free the Park Slope Food Coop from Zionist control (the anti-Zionists won!). In the second half we discuss Boots Riley's new film "I Love Boosters," an eye-popping tale of shoplifting, teleportation, union drives, dialectics, and...a demon who sucks your soul out through your p***y? It do be like that sometimes. Boots Riley, come on Party Girls.

    Today In Backpacks

    It's Sam's last episode for three whole months! To see him off on his backpacking trip through Asia and Europe, the PG crew covers some good news, like the Luigi Mangione legal fund hitting $1.5 million [Jamie already talked about this with Tony, but she forgot], Idris Robinson getting his job back, and Green Scare victim Marius Mason's release from prison. In other backpack-related news, some of the evidence collected from Luigi's backpack will be suppressed while two key pieces, the gun and the notebook, will not be. We go over the shadiness of the missing bodycam footage. The crew also discuss Sam's reasons for taking a break from the internet and Jamie's missed connection, and Jamie wishes Sam a happy birthday. Skip to 30:00 if you don't care about our lives and just want to hear about the news.

    Eric King Survived Prison, Now He is Working to Abolish Them

    Sam is joined by Eric King, an anarchist writer, antifascist organizer, and former federal prisoner whose new memoir, A Clean Hell: Anarchy and Abolition in America’s Most Notorious Dungeon, offers a firsthand account of incarceration inside some of the most restrictive prisons in the United States, including ADX Florence, Alcatraz of the rockies, the federal supermax sometimes described as the most secure prison in the world. Eric, like many, was further radicalized during the Ferguson Rebellion in 2014, and since that time has devoted his life to abolitionism. On this week’s episode Sam and Eric talk life inside, and how the relationships we build across prison walls serve as a lifeline for those the State is trying to make disappear. How does prisoner support work, do you have any excuse not to be doing it? How does the disposability culture peddled by prison wardens show up in our social movements and communities? How do we win? All this in more in this week’s Party Girls. Want to get started doing prisoner support?
