August 20, 2025 Contours of the World Commune w/ Felix from Friends of the Classless Society
Jamie and Sam are joined by Felix from the Berlin-based discussion and publication group Friends of the Classless Society to discuss their piece “Contours of the World Commune, ” which can be found in Endnotes #5. This text offers an exciting glimpse of what this world commune might look like, so we can keep our eyes on the prize as we build revolutionary power in the here and now. What is the relevance of Marx’s transitional “first stage” of communism in a late-capitalist economic landscape? Should we abolish the suburbs? Are rural land projects an escapist delusion or is there something there, after all? All this and more in this week's audio-only episode.

July 10, 2025 The Smell Of Solidarity w/ Julia Gwiazdowski
Jamie is joined by Julia Gwiazdowski, a library worker and strike captain with District Council 33, to talk about the historic municipal worker strike that (probably) just ended in the great city of Philadelphia. How did things get so bad that these essential workers are making an average of just $46,000/year? What role has racism played in how this predominantly black union gets treated by the city? Mayor Cherelle Parker and the black misleadership class. All this, plus some discussion of how actions like this align with Julia’s politics as an anarchist.
NOTE: This episode was recorded on Tuesday, July 8. On Wednesday, July 9, a tentative agreement with the city was reached. The deal falls short of what the workers were asking, and far short of what they deserve. DC 33 might be going back to work, but the struggle continues.

July 04, 2025 The Party Girls Dig Up Betsy Ross’s Bones
Happy flag burning day! Jamie and Sam are back from their glamping trip and ready to discuss developments in the news. Bad: Trump’s “big beautiful bill” is poised to kill thousands. Better: Zohran Mamdani won the primary. Best: some anarchist kids in LA have gotten ICE kicked out of every hotel they’ve tried to stay at. Be safe out there and remember to use an accelerant.
