Jacobin Radio: Return of the Trumpian Right w/ Dylan Riley

Suzi talks to UC Berkeley sociologist Dylan Riley, who has written a great deal about fascism and far right politics. The US has just elected to the Presidency a man who represents a dire threat to democracy and constitutional rule as we know it. We get Dylan’s understanding of the specificity of Trump’s politics, the basis of his support, and the fascistic measures favored by people in and around his party, including the frightening Project 2025. Central to MAGA is a reactionary view of gender, which sees women’s advances happening at the expense of men and their traditional family role. Dylan sees Trump as more of a patrimonial misfit, a charismatic leader who rules more incoherently than a consistent fascist. We also ask how Trump fits in with analogous movements of the far right around the world. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements. Hosted on Acast.

Long Reads: The Forever War on Gaza w/ Akbar Shahid Ahmed

Earlier this week, Joe Biden welcomed the Israeli president Isaac Herzog to the White House. Last October, Herzog announced that there were no innocent civilians in Gaza. The International Court of Justice cited his comments as evidence that the Palestinian people needed protection from the threat of genocide. Akbar Shahid Ahmed of the Huffington Post has been following the Biden administration’s support for the Israeli attack on Gaza from the start. He’s currently working on a book that will give a detailed account of the inside story. Akbar has joined the podcast twice before to discuss the latest developments. Dan spoke to him again after the US presidential election about the events of the past few months and what is likely to happen next. Find our last Long Reads interview with Akbar here: https://jacobin.com/2024/06/biden-administration-israel-cease-fire-policy And read his ongoing coverage for Huffington Post here: https://www.huffpost.com/author/akbar-shahid-ahmed Long Reads is a Jacobin podcast looking in-depth at political topics and thinkers, both contemporary and historical, with the magazine’s longform writers.

Jacobin Radio: Post-Election Analysis w/ Robert Brenner

We look at the election results that took many of us by surprise — giving Donald Trump and Republicans an across the board victory. For a look at the bigger picture, Suzi speaks to Robert Brenner, professor of history at UCLA, for analysis and some post-election blues. This podcast was recorded on November 8, before all the votes were counted along the West Coast. The final tallies will likely shrink Trump’s margin of victory, but not the overall results. The striking character of the Trump victory is attributable virtually entirely by the drop off in the vote for the Democrats. We try to understand what happened, and how to analyze this shift to the right. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements. Hosted on Acast.

Weaponizing Anti-Semitism… 3/13/24

3 juil.

Maureen, AN OK BOOMER

Trying to dance around the elephant in the room isn’t doing you any good? It doesn’t do the Democratic Party any good. “Gaza is the issue”. Gaza is the issue‼️the rise of Israel having so much power over this country is the issue. I didn’t expect a podcast like this on Jacobin.

Love The Long Read, really don’t enjoy listening to Jacobin Radio. Why have guests if the host is going to spend a majority of the time talking?
Everything but Jacobin Radio

The one show the feed is named after is half Kremlinology, half liberal handwringing about Trump. It’s unbecoming for an otherwise excellent magazine and podcast feed.
Great except for Suzi

Appreciate the depth and perspective of the shows, except for Suzi of the “flagship” podcast who seems to live in the mainstream La La land that doesn’t live up to the principles and values of Jacobin. Her clueless questions to Yoav Peled regarding the political-economic reality and the facts on the ground, and the many episodes on Russia’s media oppression without a word of how Israel’s been doing much worse to the press are just two examples. Would love to see a different host who is more knowledgeable and less softball.
