    Boots Riley, Come On Party Girls

    The PG crew revisits two evergreen themes: art under capitalism, and the evils of Big Tech. Specifically: Is Boots Riley a SELLOUT for using CAPITALIST MONEY to make COMMUNIST ART? We discuss. (We almost talked about the Strokes' political art at Coachella too, but we ran out of time.) And in the tech arena, we've got Facebook/Meta banning the word "antifa" because it considers it "violence and incitement," and Big Tech's attempt to further dismantle our healthcare system and erode workers' rights with "Uber for nurses." Luckily, nurses' unions are no joke. Last but certainly not least, we give an update on Jakhi McCray, a young activist convicted of the arson of 10(!!!) NYPD squad cars in a bold feat of direct action and community defense.

    All You Had To Do Was Pay Us Enough To Live

    Class consciousness is spreading across the globe like wildfire, sometimes in the form of literal wildfire. Chamel Abdulkarim, you are hotter than that toilet paper warehouse that didn't pay you enough to live as it mysteriously burned to the ground. If only that DoorDash grandma (frownie face) had your verve. In related news, Sam Altman's house was attacked twice and workers are burning shit down in India. It's gonna be a long, hot summer! Plus: the latest "alarming" teen trend, and Jamie and Sam respond to comments from listeners.

    Theory Of The Party Girls w/ Phil Neel

    Communist geographer Phil Neel, author of 'Hinterland: America's New Landscape of Class and Conflict' and 'Hellworld: The Human Species and the Planetary Factory,' joins us to discuss his latest essays on the party, 'Theory of the Party,' published in Ill Will Editions, and 'What May Come' from the forthcoming issue of Heatwave. How should communists think about organizational forms in this tumultuous age? What is revolutionary subjectivity, and why is it important? How should we be organizing, both in between moments of rupture and during the moment of truth, and who even are "we"? One thing's for certain: communists need to get hobbies. A brain-expanding conversation, if we do say so ourselves.

    Kink-Shaming Fascists & The Fievel Of Bestiality Scammers

    It's finally spring in NYC and Chicago! Too bad the world is ending. In this episode, the PG crew tackle the Charlie Kirk Memorial Highway, the death of OnlyFans owner/top AIPAC donor Leonid Radvinsky (rest in piss), the soon-to-be-built largest data center on planet earth, more extreme weather, and the January 6 insurrectionists' lawsuit against the Capitol police. And how could we resist discussing the no-longer-secret kinks of Kristi Noem's husband, Bryon Noem? As a person of bimbofication experience, Jamie gives you a kink-shaming pass.

    Antifa on Trial: The Making Of Imaginary Terrorists In Texas

    In the wake of the Prairieland verdict, Sam and Jamie speak with Alex and Blue, two comrades engaged in support work for the defendants. How did this ridiculous show trial, in which evidence included possession of a feminist essay on the movies of Ari Aster (yes, you read that right) result in convictions for the defendants on almost all counts? The invention of "Antifa" as a domestic terrorist group. The various ways the Trump administration put its thumb on the scale for the prosecution and the implications for dissent in the Trump 2.0 era. How this case dovetails with Trump's persecution of trans people. Plus, we read the names of the people who snitched.

    The Revolt Eclipses Whatever The World Has To Offer w/ Idris Robinson

    Jamie and Sam are joined by author and philosopher Idris Robinson to discuss his new book, The Revolt Eclipses Whatever The World Has To Offer, a collection of essays on revolution. How is the project of overthrowing capitalism wedded to that of black liberation, and why must we move past the politics of intersectionality? Civil war, martyrdom, and other concepts white people have trouble with. The black leadership vs the black avant-garde. How the Beckys of the world might yet become traitors to whiteness. And what the hell are destituent politics?? Idris explains.
