ICE, Pigs, Murderers: Prelude To A New Civil War?

Jamie and Sam discuss ICE's cold-blooded murder of 37-year-old mother of three Renee Nicole Good last week in Minneapolis: how it went down, who she was, and details on the pig who killed her. ICE as pathetic losers trying desperately to assert their fragile masculinity. Some of the other people ICE has killed. The responses from the Democrats and Republicans, the robust response from protesters, and why this is not the time for performative identity politics. Is America headed for a new Civi...

Imperialism, The Highest Stage Of Trumpism

The PG crew is back together and boy, is there news to discuss. Jamie and Sam unpack the Trump administration's brazen kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela and his wife, Cilia Flores: the news from over the weekend, the political context, new president Delcy Rodríguez, the responses from various quarters, the politics of dancing, and the petty reason Trump didn't install opposition leader María Corina Machado. Is "The Donroe Doctrine" the most postmodern thing ever invented ...

CULTURAL MARXISM: Scrooged (1988) w/ Jake Flores

Jamie welcomes the illustrious Jake Flores to the program to discuss Richard Donner's very eighties take on A Christmas Carol, 'Scrooged' (1988). In this modern retelling, Bill Murray stars as Frank Cross, a selfish and greedy TV executive who cares only for his bottom line, until he is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, who...you know the drill. We discuss the movie's insanely stacked cast (Bobcat Goldthwait, Carol Kane, David Johansen of the New York Dolls!), its take on cor...

The Revolutionary Spirit Of Christmas w/ Pastor Black

Join Sam and Reverend David Black of the First Presbyterian Church of Chicago for this year's Christmas Special as the two explore the meaning of Christmas and what it has to do with fighting the good fight. Was Jesus a revolutionary, if so what kind? What does it mean to be a human? And what can the holiday spirit teach us about this humanity?

All this and more in this year's Christmas Special.

Luigi Mangione: One Year Later

Exactly one year after the killing of United "Healthcare" CEO Brian Thompson, the PG crew looks back on one year of Luigi Mangione. They recap what's happened in the case so far, shout out Luigi's biggest supporters, and give updates on what's happening in Luigi's trio of court dates this week. At issue is the evidence police collected from Luigi's backpack upon his arrest in Altoona, PA, which the defense is moving to have excluded because the police did not read him his Miranda rights as re...

Caught In A Rad Bromance

Socialism is in the news this week! The PG crew breaks down the bizarre Trump-Mamdani summit during which the president made it very clear that he has a crush on the democratic socialist mayor-elect of NYC. What the heck was that, and will it ultimately be a net positive, negative, or neutral? Meanwhile, 86 Democrats voted for the house bill condemning socialism, an idea that "only" one third of Americans support, according to recent polling. We remembered to read the patrons' names this time...

The Dog That Hasn't Barked

Sam and Jamie tackle news of the day, including: tidbits gleaned from the latest drop of 2,300 Epstein-related emails. Megyn Kelly: "'technically, it's ephebophilia."

The People's Republic Of New York

Jamie reports LIVE from the COMMUNIST CORRIDOR of NYC on the election of New York's first socialist mayor since 1993, youngest mayor since 1892, first ever Muslim mayor, and most importantly, first mayor with a rap career Zohran Mamdani (learn to say it). What does it mean that America's most important city elected a democratic socialist mayor? Are there openings to make the "commie corridor" real, or is this just more electoralist recuperation? How butthurt are the Cuomos right now? Jamie an...

CULTURAL MARXISM HALLOWEEN SPECIAL: Donnie Darko (2001)

The PG crew tackles a classic Halloween movie that captured our hearts and bent our minds when we were in high school: Donnie Darko (2001). In writer/director Richard Kelly's coming-of-age sci-fi thriller, troubled teen Donnie (Jake Gyllenhaal) must decipher the apocalyptic visions he's been having before it's too late. We discuss the film's political backdrop of '80s/'00s conservatism, the primary plot and whether or not it makes sense, and its enduring relevance, dropping a Marx quote or tw...

No Kings, No Masters

The PG crew discusses the recent No Kings Day protests, which brought out millions of people around the world for a demonstration of...something. How should thoughtful partisans orient themselves towards such a thing? Sam gives updates on anti-ICE activities in Chicago. Plus, some thoughts on the Mamdani - Sliwa - Cuomo cage match that was the first NYC mayoral debate.

Tranarchy In The US w/ Maxelle Talena

Maxelle Talena of Dysphoria and Affiliated w/ Maxelle Talena joins the program to discuss the recent rash of anti-trans memos from the White House and right-wing efforts to paint trans people as domestic terrorists and mass shooters, even seeking to deny trans people their 2A rights.

How To Save The World w/ Malcolm Harris

The PG crew speaks with author Malcolm Harris (@BigMeanInternet) about his new book, What’s Left: Three Paths Through the Planetary Crisis. In this book, Harris takes us through three strategies to save the world from climate change: “Marketcraft,” “Public Power” and “Communism” (clearly, he saved the best for last). We unpack what each of these are, then get into even sexier topics like the Zapatistas and political violence.

If You Listen To Or Watch This, You Are Gay LMAO

The PG crew tackles the shot heard 'round the world last week when Charles James Kirk, 31-year-old MAGA influencer and notable twerp, caught a bullet to the neck while saying something racist at an event called "The American Comeback Tour" at Utah Valley University. Hey, at least he died doing what he loved. Is this a Turning Point in USA history, or merely the funniest thing ever? The episode you've been waiting for.

The Day Before Charlie Kirk Got Murked

Let's get this out of the way: we recorded this episode the day before Charlie Kirk got smoked by an assassin who is, as of now, still at large. But as it turns out, there are lots of other things happening in the world. Like: a judge threw out the Stop Cop City RICO case (yay!), ICE is invading Sam's city (boo), civil unrest popped off in Indonesia, and Zoomers are literally overthrowing the government in Nepal. Plus, NYC schools have a hilarious new mascot for the cell phone ban named "Fran...
