The Party Girls crew takes on Paul Thomas Anderson's epic "taken" tale with revolutionary flavor, One Battle After Another (2025). In this comedic thriller, an aging burnout and former member of revolutionary group The French 75 (Leonardo DiCaprio) must spring into action with the help of his local karate sensei/migrant defense organizer (Benicio del Toro) when his daughter (Chase Infiniti) is kidnapped by an ICE goon/aspiring member of the white power elite (Sean Penn). Did we like the way revolutionaries are portrayed in this movie? One thing's for certain: between this and Eddington, we're all up in the zeitgeist.

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 should we situate these rising threats? We also discuss Tyler Robinson's alleged partner/roommate Lance, and how they might have the most hated identity of all: landlord.

Jamie and Sam tackle some not-so-great news, including: the death of Assata Shakur, the highly suspicious "anti-ICE" shooting, Sam's firsthand experience of ICE storm troopers in Chicago, the government shutdown, and Trump's anti-anti-fascist memos which single out both the Stop Cop City movement and supporters of Luigi Mangione, among other groups.

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.

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?

Jamie is joined by Tom Sexton and Tarence Ray of the Trillbilly Workers Party podcast to talk about Ari Aster's polarizing new film, Eddington. Set in a fictional southwestern town in 2020, the Hereditary director's latest offering has a lot going on: Joaquin Phoenix as MAGA sheriff, Pedro Pascal as neolib mayor, Emma Stone as goth girlfriend, and Austin Butler as cult leader. Also: hysterical SJWs, noisy 'splosions, and a high noon showdown set to Katy Perry. Is it a timely critique of the monsters people create in their minds, or lib-brained 'both sides' slop? Jamie and her esteemed guests discuss.

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 this writing, 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 "Frankie Focus." We promise we'll talk about the funniest thing ever next week. *** SIGN UP NOW at https://patreon.com/partygirls to get all of our bonus content, Discord access, and a shout out on the pod!

On Sam's recent visit to New York City, the PG crew recorded their FIRST EVER episode together in meatspace! In this very special episode, the crew talks about Sam's trip to NYC, why they do the Luigi Mangione Legal Fund spokesperson work (and other organizing work) for free, and unpack some of their ideas about revolution. All this, plus an adorable cameo from the show's official third host, Frida Gato. You can't see it in the audio version, but trust us, it was cute. *** SIGN UP NOW at https://patreon.com/partygirls to get all of our bonus content, Discord access, and a shout out on the pod!

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.
