May 23, 2018 Episode Nine: Violence - Humans in Dark Times w/ Natasha Lennard
Our friend and comrade Natasha Lennard joins us for a discussion themed around her forthcoming book with Brad Evans, "Violence: Humans in Dark Times."
Tash's thoughts on the royal wedding. The US media's problematic framing of the most recent killings in Gaza. Angela Davis on the violence of the status quo. The uncounted millions who've met premature deaths due to the predations of capitalism. The connection between racist police murders, private property and the capitalist state. Why simply reforming the police and prison system is not enough. What kind of violence should the left be willing to entertain in service of social change?
The depressing facts of social reproduction and the revolutionary possibilities of love. Are you a bad anarchist if you don't fuck everyone? The Antifada's first on-air marriage proposal!
Pre-order Natasha's book here:

May 17, 2018 Episode Eight: The University & Its Malcontents w/ Anonymous New School Student
Jamie, Sean and Andy take a field trip to the occupied New School to interview "K," an anonymous student, about New School students' latest direct action in solidarity with cafeteria workers (repped by UNITE HERE Local 100) and grad students (SENS-UAW).
Later, back at the ranch, the gang contextualizes this occupation with some history of the modern university: its roots, its social function, and how it has developed as a site of struggle. What happened in the '70s and '80s that made college so expensive, yet also so necessary? The through-lines from the student occupations of the 1960s to Occupy Wall Street to the Bernie Sanders campaign. Sean and Andy reminisce about their own college years and reveal how they met.
Sorry for the poor sound quality, it was our first time recording outside the studio!

May 10, 2018 Episode Seven: Virginity in Theory and Practice w/ Andrew Callaway
Our guest canceled so Jamie picked up a rando at the DSA convention to fill in. Thanks for being such a good sport, rando!
Jamie and the rando — whose name, it turns out, is Andrew Callaway — recap a bit of what went down at the convention, including a "turn-to-industry" proposal and a spicy debate around Bernie 2020.
The gang tackles the van attack in Toronto, the "incel rebellion" and why dudes who can't get laid and complain about it online are a kind of hate group. The political economy of angry young misogynists and what to do with them. How to keep those on the fence from turning into Pepes? Jamie's personal story of educating someone. The impact of technology on sex and dating (Sean shows his age). Why everyone will have better sex under socialism. Some social reproduction and historical materialism talk, because why not?
Check out the podcast Andrew produces, 'Benjamen Walker's Theory of Everything' at theoryofeverythingpodcast.com
REMINDER: Only 82 more patrons to go until we release the first episode of our nonsensical cooking show, 'Acid Kitchen'! Support the show at Patreon.com/theantifada.
If you're in New York, check out the DSA Community Healthcare Fair Jamie helped put together! The panel (featuring m4a activist Tim Faust, Soc Fem WG's Emma Caterine, and State Senate candidate Julia Salazar w/ moderation by Michael Brooks) will be live streamed for those who can't make it.
