January 30, 2019 Ep 36: The Handmaid's Fail w/ Leslie Lee III
Jamie and Sean are schooled by the master of critical analysis @leslieeiii from Struggle Session on what is good and what is not good about #resistance media in the age of Drumpf.
Join us as we dissect the dystopian world of The Handmaid's Tale, the ur-text of liberal anxiety around the impending neo-theocratic counter-revolution. How does the Hulu series stand up to Margaret Atwood's 1985 masterpiece? What does the show tell us about donut Twitter and Hillary dead-enders? Can anything be redeemed?
Next, Leslie turns us onto some much more effective resistance in the form of the ongoing Purge film series. Is this universe a better representation of actually existing material/social conditions that lead to dystopia...or already have? Are the lessons better? And can Staten Island ever be the center of a cross-racial working class alliance to overthrow the capitalist system? Tune in to find out.

Outro music: The Toasters - Don't Let the Bastards Grind You Down

January 23, 2019 Antifada's History is a Weapon #2 w/ Matt Christman
AP Andy is in Mexico researching Posadism. Jamie is wherever goth socialists go to do goth-soc things. So Sean KB recorded an ep with fellow history nerd, Matt Christman of The Chapo Trap House, who is similarly tyrannized by the weight of dead generations.
The question: Why, of all advanced capitalist countries, is the United States unique in its historical failure to form a bone-fide Labour/Socialist party organically tied to the union movement as an institutionalized political expression of working class interests? The answers may surprise you.

January 18, 2019 PREVIEW: It's Beddie Bye Time, Trotsky
Alright, so Jamie left everyone hanging with that inside joke in the main episode... but behind the wall Alex Gendler and Antifada can tell stories about Hasidic craigslist subs who only want to show the hog, cult party Jim Jones cosplay and romantic sex-slave encounters. We should really only make this bonus available to the $100 paypig tier patrons, but those worms don't even deserve that shit.
Oh yeah, we also do a Real Trotsky-Train Hours where the man himself describes his Cossack-destroying, Knight Rider-esque Chad train that won the Russian Civil War.

January 16, 2019 Episode 35: Leon Thotsky w/ Alex Gendler
CONTENT WARNING: violence, war trains, choke sex, revisionism, does not pass Bechdel test
To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Soviet Revolution, Russian state television created an 8-part miniseries on the life of Leon Trotsky in which he spends half the screen time violently fucking on a war train dressed like a revolutionary leather daddy. And that's the least revisionist aspect of this stunningly anti-Semitic and reactionary tour-de-force.
Alex Gendler, who grew up in the waning years of the USSR, puts this objet d'art into the context of Putin's neoliberal, authoritarian Russia while the rest of us ponder how one man could lay so much pipe and still have time to plot an entire revolution.
Outro - The O'Jays: Love Train
