An anti-capitalist kaiju and monster movie podcast in a world where no one is coming to save us.

    Episode 90 ft Liam Quane: Electoral Politics and the Monsterverse Part 2: Godzilla x Kong

    Episode 90 ft Liam Quane: Electoral Politics and the Monsterverse Part 2: Godzilla x Kong

    We have back returning guest, author, filmmaker, and Goji-twitter shit-stirrer Liam Quane.
    In episode 83, Liam made some bold predictions about how Godzilla x Kong would play out using his theory of "Mask Off Cinema,"  a movement informed by the political motivations of filmmakers during the Trump Era, of which we are still a part.
    Is Godzilla x Kong just a project to get Democrats elected? What did Liam glean in advace about the film just from looking at the colors of the characters? What will the next Monsterverse movie look like?

    Episode 89: The Seventh Seal (1957)

    Episode 89: The Seventh Seal (1957)

    We travel back to the Middle Ages, to a time when everyone felt like the world was ending, to discuss ideas wholly alien to us in today's political landscape: nihilism, existentialism, fundamentalism, and the nature of knowledge and belief. Will we self-flagellate and preach from the seat of judgement, or joyously mock death for our listener's enjoyment?

    [PREVIEW] No Gods, No Authors: "To Our Friends" by The Invisible Committee, Part 2

    [PREVIEW] No Gods, No Authors: "To Our Friends" by The Invisible Committee, Part 2

    Rabbit and Barto are back talking chapters 4 and 5 of The Invisible Committee's "To Our Friends."
    Along the way we cover cybernetics, bridging the dichotomy between pacifism and "radicalism," not thinking like an insurrectionist and not becoming the anarchist the state wants you to be, tact, and the book's relevancy to the ongoing encampments and the situation on the ground in Gaza.
    We also mention Jack, who is facing charges for alleged sabotage on Cop City in Atlanta. Part of the reason cited for his extremely high bond was owning literature by The Invisible Committee.
    You can support him financially or through letter writing at FreeJack.co 
     
    You don't have to have any familiarity with the text to follow the conversation, but the book is available in PDF form on libcom.org so you can read along (we really like the text so obviously we'd encourage you to read it! It's also extremely relevant to the present moment)

    Episode 88: The Mysterians (1957)

    Episode 88: The Mysterians (1957)

    We are going way back to the warm embrace of Ishirō Honda with the special-effects, alien invasion spectacular, The Mysterians. We discuss colonialism, misogyny, and find more than a few parallels to a contemporary struggle.

    [PATREON PREVIEW] No Gods, No Authors: "To Our Friends" by The Invisible Committee, Part 1

    [PATREON PREVIEW] No Gods, No Authors: "To Our Friends" by The Invisible Committee, Part 1

    We're trying something a little new.
    Rabbit and Barto talk flows, blockage, smashing and building power as described in the post-marxist, anarchist book, To Our Friends by The Invisible Committee. We cover some Agamben, Lacan, Deleuze, and Nietzsche. We consider Occupy, January 6th, Food Not Bombs and (the at the time we recorded, very new) occupation movement happening on college campuses protesting the genocide in Gaza.
     
    In part 1 we cover the introduction through chapter 3.
